Infrared Light Therapy in Toms River
Infrared light works by improving circulation and oxygenation, bringing blood flow and nutrition to the affected area to help it heal. This service also increases the production of ATP, or energy, in the cell. Whether we’re working on your muscles, joints, bones, tendons, or ligaments, you’re going to heal faster and better if we give the affected cells more energy so they can work even harder at recovering.
The device just looks like a large pad with red lights on it. We have three in different shapes and sizes so we can reach all areas of the body.
What’s the Difference Between Infrared and Cold Laser?
While infrared and cold laser therapy are very similar, laser uses a more coherent light for a different approach to healing. Both therapies can be used for a wide range of conditions. The laser technology is a little more specific, as we can set different frequencies, while infrared only uses one wavelength.
Dr. Rob takes many factors into account when deciding which approach is best for you. Some patients enjoy relaxing in the gentle warmth of infrared light. It’s like taking a 20-minute nap in the middle of your day!
For others, speed is king. They prefer laser therapy so they can get out the door in just a few minutes’ time and keep up with their busy day. We pay attention to your particular condition and health needs as well as your lifestyle factors when making a personalized recommendation for care.
