How long will it take before I start to feel results?
Depending
on your needs, and the duration of your treatments,
many patients see results in a short period of time.
The short-term effect is significant in 5-10% of cases
during or after the initial treatment. In most cases
we expect to see some change in symptoms after 3 to
5 visits. In a recent clinical report of 151 consecutive
cases using LILT the average
patient required eleven treatments for maximum improvement.

How many treatments will I need?
One of the greatest benefits of LaserCare therapy is that
it can be tailored to fit your specific condition. The
response of your body will determine how many treatments
you need. Your LaserCare team will work with you to measures
your progress, always assessing what adjustments can be
made, based on your body’s response, to improve
your customized treatment.
Our objective is to provide the best possible care
in the least number of visits. Once therapy begins,
we can determine more accurately how many treatments
you will need. In most cases we expect to see some
change in symptoms after 3 to 5 visits, but in a small
percentage a more prolonged period of treatment may
be required.

How long has laser therapy been used successfully?
Light has been recognized as a source of energy and healing
since the early days of recorded time. Ancient Greeks,
Romans and Egyptians practiced heliotherapy, or healing
by sunlight to treat various ailments. Low Intensity Laser
Therapy (LILT) has been used in practice for over thirty
years. NASA scientists have investigated its healing powers
in space, and private practitioners have been helping
patients recover even after their hope had long been frustrated
by the failure of traditional medicine.

painful symptoms. The beneficial effects of

Will the LaserCare practitioners take the time to
understand my condition?
LaserCare healthcare professionals are in the office for
one important purpose: to improve your health and quality
of life. Because each patient’s needs differ, we
will discuss your condition until we come to a mutual
understanding of your needs. At that time we can recommend
a treatment tailored just for you.

How can LaserCare therapy succeed when other therapy
methods have failed?
LaserCare is a cutting edge therapy founded on centuries
of study and discovery. Unlike the reactive traditional
methods you may be used to, LaserCare takes a proactive
approach. Very often, tissue damage is to blame for pain
and chronic conditions. Our therapies treat this damage
at the source to diminish pain and restore healing potential.

How does LaserCare differ from current healthcare
practices?
Over-reliant health authority can make it easy to shift
responsibility for our own health to other people, devices
or medication. Many people have found that over time,
medication is not enough. Chronic pain and other conditions
will persist or worsen until they are resolved. LaserCare
treats the source of the problem and places you, the patient,
at the center of the therapy. When you take responsibility
for your health, you can reprioritize your body’s
needs and address the real problem.
