Livonia Chiropractor Uses Cold Laser Therapy for Pain Relief Treatment
Cold laser therapy is a treatment that utilizes specific wavelengths of light to interact with tissue and help accelerate your healing process. Cold laser treatment can be used on people suffering from acute and chronic conditions in order to eliminate pain and swelling, increase functionality, and reduce spasms.
Our friendly and educated chiropractor will hold the cold laser and place it directly on the injured area for a few minutes. At this time, the non-thermal photons of lights will be emitted from the laser and pass through the skin layers. The light has the ability to penetrate two to five centimeters below the skin at 90 mw and 830 nm.
When the light energy passes through your skin and reaches the injured area, the energy is absorbed and interacts with the light-sensitive elements in your cells. When cells absorb this light energy, it will assist with normalizing damaged or injured tissue, reducing pain, inflammation, edema, and overall healing time.

After much coaxing from my husband, who is treated by Dr Shaft and, by the way, has improved significantly, I made an appointment. I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. Dr Shaft listened to my concerns and developed a plan taking those concerns into account. His treatments are gentle yet effective and I look forward to continuing treatment until I reach goal and maintenance. read less

Dr.Shaft & Dr.Walker are thorough professionals who took time to listen to my concerns and addressed them appropriately. After multiple adjustments, my shoulder soreness has gotten much better. Diana & Tracy (massage tech) are just awesome! Highly recommend them. PS: Arthur (office pet) is my best buddy.

Dr. Shaft had me back on the golf course a week later after 4 visits. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!! read less

Was having severe neck pains out of the blue one day to the point where I couldn't bend my neck the slightest or even look around. Within my first few adjustments I was able to get back to work almost as good as new! After a couple more adjustments the following week I felt better than ever! ???? I went to two of their locations and the staff between both were phenomenal and well communicated between one another! Very LGBTQ friendly (was starting my transition at the time) and helpful as well! I even ended up moving out of state while still having multiple unused visits from the package I purchased and they were very cooperative making sure I got the money I was owed back. Absolutely nothing bad to say about their company, staff, or practices! Highly recommended! read less
