When your hands or wrists are in pain, daily life gets complicated—whether you're lifting in the gym, typing at work, or just gripping a steering wheel. At Strength & Spine Chiropractic, we know how disruptive these injuries can be. That’s why we utilize Class IV Laser Therapy as a powerful, non-invasive tool to accelerate healing and reduce pain in the hand and wrist.
Why Are Hand & Wrist Injuries So Common?
Your hands and wrists are packed with small joints, tendons, ligaments, and nerves—making them especially vulnerable to overuse, trauma, and inflammation. Whether it’s:
-
Carpal tunnel syndrome
-
Tendonitis (e.g. De Quervain’s or trigger finger)
-
Sprains or strains from lifting or falling
-
Post-surgical healing
-
Arthritis-related pain
These issues can linger without proper treatment. That's where laser therapy shines—literally.
What Is Class IV Laser Therapy?
Class IV laser therapy uses high-powered, therapeutic light waves to stimulate cellular repair, reduce inflammation, and relieve pain. The light penetrates deep into the tissue, reaching damaged structures that manual therapy alone may not access.
Think of it like jump-starting your body’s natural healing process—but on turbo mode.
How It Helps Hand & Wrist Conditions
-
Reduces Inflammation:
Laser therapy targets inflamed tissues, helping to calm swelling around tendons, ligaments, and nerves—especially important in conditions like carpal tunnel or tendonitis. -
Speeds Up Healing:
Laser light increases ATP production (your cells’ energy source), which accelerates tissue repair and regeneration. -
Improves Circulation:
It boosts microcirculation, delivering more oxygen and nutrients to injured tissues while flushing out metabolic waste. Faster circulation = faster recovery. -
Decreases Pain—Fast:
Laser therapy promotes natural pain relief by triggering the release of endorphins and reducing nerve sensitivity. -
Non-Invasive + No Downtime:
There are no needles, no medications, and no need to miss work or workouts.
