Healing with Light
What Is Cold Laser Therapy?
Cold laser therapy — also known as low-level laser therapy (LLLT) — is a non-invasive treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light energy to penetrate the skin and stimulate healing at the cellular level. Unlike surgical lasers, cold lasers don't produce heat or cut tissue — they work by energizing your cells to promote natural repair.
At Path to Wellness Clinic of Chiropractic, Dr. Chitra Rajendran uses the Erchonia Cold Laser, an FDA-cleared, state-of-the-art device trusted by healthcare professionals worldwide. The Erchonia laser has been backed by extensive clinical research and is proven effective in treating pain, inflammation, and a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions.
Treatments are painless, require no downtime, and typically take just a few minutes per session.
The Science
How Cold Laser Therapy Works
The Erchonia laser delivers low-level light energy into damaged tissues, triggering a chain of biological responses that promote healing from the inside out.
Light Penetrates Tissue
The laser emits specific wavelengths of light that pass painlessly through the skin and reach the damaged cells, muscles, and tissues beneath the surface.
Cells Are Energized
The light energy is absorbed by the mitochondria — the powerhouses of your cells — stimulating increased ATP production, which fuels cellular repair and regeneration.
Inflammation Reduces
The laser triggers anti-inflammatory responses at the cellular level, reducing swelling and irritation around the injured area so healing can progress more effectively.
Healing Accelerates
Blood flow improves, tissue repair speeds up, and pain signals are reduced — all naturally, without drugs or invasive procedures.
