Cold Laser Therapy

Cold Laser Therapy (Lower Level Laser Therapy)

Cold Laser Therapy uses bio-technology developed by NASA that safely and successfully treats all manner of chronic and debilitating conditions whose underlying cause is in the bodies soft-tissues.

Conditions that typically respond well to Cold Laser Therapy are Migraines, Neck pain, Low back pain and Tinnitus (ringing in the ears) – but any condition that has a soft-tissue injury or hypersensitivity as part of its cause may respond well.  

Much of the cost of Cold Laser Therapy treatment can be offset against Medicare – In his initial assessment of each client the Doctor will outline exactly what is involved in the treatment and exactly what each individual can claim on Medicare. 

Cold Laser Therapy is also known as Low Level Laser Therapy. This is to distinguish it from Surgical Lasers. Surgical lasers are high powered and are used to cut body tissue. Cold Lasers, or Low Level Lasers, cause no tissue damage, the treatments are pain-free and the laser feels “Cool” against the skin.

In fact Cold lasers cause tissue repair – this is one reason that they can have a significant effect on chronic pain. By localizing the epicenter of the soft-tissue injury and stimulating the growth of new healthy tissue the Cold Laser Therapy can resolve problems that have caused pain and distress for many years. 

The Cold Laser treatment protocols were discovered by German and Czech Scientists working with NASA biotechnology – Dr Mark Rogers has twice been to Europe to learn the technique and is now training Australian Doctors in its application. 

Dr Rogers and his Team at Elevate work closely with other members of the Elevate team to further enhance the healing and repair of these long-standing problems. For example:

 Working with the Elevate Naturopath a client can super-boost their soft-tissue healing with specific supplements

The Elevate Physiotherapy team work with clients to strengthen muscle groups that have been weakened by chronic pain and dysfunctional movement patterns

Long term postural strength is enhanced by working in conjunction with Elevates Pilates practitioners

Underlying posture and spinal mal-alignment can be corrected by Elevates Chiropractic and Osteopathic team.

The most appropriate combination of treatments for each individual will be discussed as part of the initial assessment and at regular intervals throughout the course of treatment.
