Laser Therapy (LLLT) at The Health League

 
Drug-free, evidence-based care for pain, inflammation, and healing.

What Is Low-Level Laser Therapy?

Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT), also known as cold laser therapy, is a gentle, non-invasive treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate tissue repair, reduce inflammation, and relieve pain. It’s painless, requires no downtime, and is supported by a strong body of clinical research. At The Health League, we use LLLT to support healing in a wide range of acute and chronic conditions.

More Than Just Laser

At The Health League, LLLT is often combined with other hands-on therapies to enhance results. Depending on your needs, your session may also include:
  • Manual therapy
  • Fascial release
  • Active Release Technique (ART)
  • Cupping therapy
  • Chiropractic adjustments
This integrated approach allows us to address both symptoms and root causes, giving you the most effective care possible. All of these modalities are optional. Everything we offer is tailored to your specific case and personal preferences.

Common Conditions Treated By Laser Therapy

New and Old Injuries
LLLT is highly effective for managing both recent and long-standing injuries. It helps reduce inflammation, enhance circulation, and accelerate the body’s natural healing response. Whether you’re recovering from a recent trauma or dealing with persistent pain from an old injury, laser therapy can support faster healing and better outcomes.
Migraine and Headache Relief
LLLT works by easing muscular and fascial tension, improving circulation, and calming inflammation around sensitive nerves and blood vessels. This can lead to fewer and less intense headaches—especially for those triggered by neck tension, vascular issues, or nerve sensitivity. We often combine LLLT with manual therapy and rehabilitative care for a well-rounded approach to headache relief.
Sprains and
Strains

Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is a safe, drug-free option that supports recovery from sprains and muscle strains. By stimulating cellular repair and reducing inflammation, LLLT helps ease pain, improve mobility, and get you back to your daily activities quickly with greater comfort. LLLT can be a very effective options for both new and old sprains and strains.

Post-Surgical Recovery

Laser therapy can help speed up recovery following surgery. It reduces swelling and scar tissue formation, promotes tissue regeneration, and supports pain relief at surgical sites. Whether recovering from orthopedic or soft tissue procedures, LLLT is a gentle tool to help you heal more comfortably.

Arthritis and Joint Pain
LLLT can be a valuable addition to the management of osteoarthritis and inflammatory joint conditions. By improving circulation and reducing joint inflammation, laser therapy may ease stiffness, restore mobility, and reduce daily aches and pains. It works well alongside exercise therapy and manual treatments to support joint health—without the need for medication.
Tendonitis and
Bursitis
Tendonitis and bursitis can be painful and limiting. LLLT offers an effective way to support healing and provide relief. By enhancing tissue repair at the cellular level and reducing inflammation in and around tendons and bursae, laser therapy helps manage pain and encourages faster, more comfortable recovery.
Disc Herniations and Nerve Pain
For patients dealing with disc herniations, sciatica, or other forms of nerve irritation, LLLT may offer meaningful relief. It helps calm inflammation around compressed nerves and promotes local tissue healing—potentially easing symptoms like pain, tingling, or numbness. LLLT is a conservative, non-invasive option that may help you avoid or delay more aggressive treatments.
Neuralgia and Nerve Sensitivity
LLLT may be supportive for conditions like trigeminal neuralgia, occipital neuralgia, and post-herpetic neuralgia. By reducing inflammation in affected nerve pathways and encouraging tissue repair, laser therapy can help reduce the intensity and frequency of nerve pain episodes—providing relief from burning, sharp, or electric-shock-like sensations.
