The Benefits of Treating Arthritis Knee Pain with Cold Laser Therapy Instead of Medications and Knee Injections
Arthritis can be a painful, crippling condition if left untreated. Unfortunately, medications and knee injections only provide minimal relief- if they work at all!
The benefits of treating arthritis knee pain with non-invasive cold laser therapy are numerous.
- Cold laser therapy is painless
- There are no side-effects
- No downtime needed
- Non surgical
- Typically cold laser treatments are NOT temporary in nature. Depending on the severity of the condition most patients have lasting effects from cold laser treatments for months or years after treatments are completed.
- Cold laser therapy treats the source of the problem (the cell) and doesn’t just cover up the pain. This last benefit depends on the competency of the doctor. This is why it’s important to find a cold laser doctor who only treats knee pain using cold laser therapy.
Cold laser therapy should not be used as a tool to merely numb or cover up the pain in the knee like medications or injections often do. Instead, cold laser therapy is used to eliminate the symptoms not by ‘temporarily covering them up’ but by working on the cause of the problem so the symptoms fully resolve themselves. Cold laser therapy works on the source of the problem by using specific wavelengths of light to stimulate damaged cells metabolic activity which initiates certain biological processes so that the cells can heal and repair themselves. As a result this accelerates the healing process, reduces pain and inflammation in an arthritic knee. If the tissue in the knee joint is left untreated the compromised or damaged cells will die off and the tissue never improves and the symptoms worsen.
Most patients that Dr. Alexandra Schnee, D.C. treats are diagnosed with severe arthritis knee pain and have tried both injections and medications but never experienced any improvement with these types of ‘conventional treatments’. Linda P. a realtor from North Richland Hills is a good example of a patient who completed treatments at the DFW Spine & Joint Center after being diagnosed with arthritis knee pain and never noticed any improvement with injections or medications. The following is Mrs. P’s story:
“I sought medical help for my knee pain, and was first given a steroid injection and later given a series of cock’s comb shots. They were very painful. I felt relief, but it wasn’t permanent and certainly not as effective as the cold laser treatments have been. Prior to receiving cold laser treatments there were some days that the pain was so unbearable that I had to use a cane to get around. I had difficulty sleeping, sitting or walking for any length of time. My knee constantly ached or was in severe pain. Ascending and descending stairs was not just difficult it was painful. Walking any distance or riding in a car or sitting for over a few minutes caused pain and made walking difficult. Sleeping through the night just didn’t happen. According to the orthopedic surgeon I was not a candidate for knee surgery so the only solution I was given (which wasn’t even a solution) was either to live with the pain or get a handful of cock’s comb injections. Since completing Dr. Schnee’s Cold Laser Knee Program I can do just about everything without being in pain. I am so pleased because my knee is 100% better than it was before starting care. And I intend to keep coming back so that my knee stays that way!”
