Cold Laser Therapy in Downtown Ottawa

Therapeutic Laser as Part of Your Care Plan

A non-invasive therapy that may help reduce pain and support tissue healing.

Therapeutic laser is a non-invasive treatment that uses targeted light energy. It may help reduce inflammation, relieve pain and support the body’s natural repair processes.

​

At  AVANT, laser therapy may be included in your care plan when it is appropriate for your condition.

How Laser Therapy Works

​Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT), often called “cold laser,” delivers light energy to injured tissue. Research suggests cells can absorb this energy, which may support tissue repair.

​

This process may help reduce inflammation, improve circulation and decrease pain.
