Acupuncture
Acupuncture originated in China and has been used for over 5,000 years. This process involves the temporary insertion of tiny sterile needles into the skin at specific areas of your body to promote the healing process and restore the natural balance and harmony of your body. Soft tissue injuries often occur after a motor vehicle accident and can be successfully treated by acupuncture. The most common type of soft tissue injury caused by a motor vehicle accident is whiplash, which is a strain/sprain of the neck—even a minor fender-bender can cause this.
Chiropractic
Chiropractic is a health care profession that focuses on disorders of the muscle, skeletal, and nervous system, and the effects of these disorders on general health. Chiropractic services are used often to treat most common pain and/or stiffness, conditions of the neck, back, upper and lower extremities. (Example: Arms, legs, etc.)
Laser Therapy
The innovative and patented Multiwave Locked System (MLS) Therapy Laser was developed in an effort to produce an efficient and simultaneous effect on pain, inflammation, and edema, exceeding the limits of traditional LLL T (low power) and concerns of HP (high power) laser therapy. MLS technology delivers therapeutic wavelengths, 808nm (anti-edemic and antiinflammatory) and 905nm (analgesic), allowing a tissue penetration depth of 3-4 cm. An energetic synergy is created when delivering these wavelengths that produces greater anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects than either can produce on its own, while minimizing the risk of thermal damage. It is this unique combination and synchronization of continuous and pulsed emissions that characterizes MLS and distinguishes it from other Class IV lasers.
Unlike early-generation Class IV technology, MLS Laser Therapy has the capability to deliver controlled laser energy. This unique feature provides more accurate therapeutic dose delivery, which means consistent and repeatable results. MLS Laser Therapy is FDA cleared.
With high levels of efficacy, safety, and consistency, MLS Laser Therapy can help physicians relieve pain and restore lives, while rewarding their practice financially.
