Find Relief with Laser Therapy in Moncks Corner

If you’re struggling with pelvic pain or dysfunction that interrupts your daily life, laser therapy at Renewal Therapeutics can help. This innovative treatment uses targeted light energy to reduce inflammation, decrease pain, and stimulate tissue repair. Unlike medications that simply mask symptoms, laser therapy treats the root cause of your discomfort for lasting relief. Patients see real, measurable improvements in conditions like:

• Pelvic pain
• Painful intercourse
• Urinary urgency/frequency
• Bowel issues like constipation

At Renewal Therapeutics, our expert pelvic floor physical therapists specialize in using laser therapy to improve quality of life.

How Laser Therapy in Moncks Corner Works

Laser therapy, also called photobiomodulation, uses specific wavelengths of light to heal tissue at the cellular level. The light triggers a cascade of beneficial biological reactions:

• Increases ATP and cell metabolism – cells have more energy to repair damage
• Boosts blood flow and oxygen – brings nutrients to heal tissue
• Reduces inflammation – decreases swelling, pain, and nerve irritation
• Stimulates collagen and muscle growth – regenerates healthy tissue

These photochemical reactions accelerate your body’s natural healing. Treatment kickstarts tissue repair and development of properly functioning cells. Laser therapy sessions involve sitting or lying down while a handheld device delivers painless pulses of light. The light penetrates skin and soft tissue up to several inches deep. During the 30-60 minute treatments, patients often report a soothing, warm sensation.

Targeted Relief Through Laser Therapy Technology

Pelvic pain has many contributing factors – muscle dysfunction, inflammation, scar tissue, nerve problems, and more. Laser therapy provides custom relief by targeting root causes:
Muscle Spasms & Trigger Points – The light reduces muscle spasms and deactivate trigger points. Your pelvic floor muscles can relax, decreasing stiffness, pain, and urinary urgency.
Nerve Pain & Irritation – By reducing local inflammation, laser therapy calms irritated nerves. This alleviates nerve-related pelvic pain and discomfort. Light energy accelerates cell metabolism and growth factors in damaged tissue. This facilitates faster repair of restrictions, tears, and scar tissue.
Poor Circulation – Dilated blood vessels increase oxygen-rich blood flow to deprived tissues. Enhanced circulation promotes healing by delivering key nutrients.

Benefits of Laser Therapy Services

This non-invasive treatment provides targeted relief while supporting whole-body wellness. Patients undergoing laser therapy enjoy benefits like:

• Non-Medication Pain Relief – With no side effects or risk of dependency, laser therapy is a safe analgesic alternative. The light has an opioid-like pain relieving effect.
• Support Injury Recovery – Increased blood flow and cell metabolism speed recovery from chronic issues and acute sports injuries.
• Improved Sexual Function – By reducing inflammation and encouraging tissue repair, laser therapy can help resume pain-free intimacy.
• Decreased Stiffness & Tension – Gentle warmth and muscle relaxation improve flexibility and range of motion. This enhances mobility for activities and exercise.
• Anxiety & Sleep Aid – Relaxing treatments promote mental calmness and physical comfort for better rest.

What to Expect During Your Laser Therapy Session

Laser therapy is one of several options available during your rehabilitation program. Your Renewal Therapeutics therapist customizes the intensity and frequency of treatments to match your response and achieve goals safely.

Here’s how a typical visit goes:

• Review Symptoms – Discuss recent issues and changes since last session.
• Treatment Area Cleaning – We sterilize the skin surface for safety.
• Laser Device Positioning – We’ll position yourself and the device for optimal comfort and results during the hands-free treatment. This may involve some routine undressing and draping.
• Treatment – Guide the handheld device over targeted areas in sweeping motions. You’ll feel soothing warmth reaching skin surface and deeper tissues. We may also use laser pens for precision targeting.
• Assessment – Compare symptom intensity/quality before and after. We may also re-assess range of motion.
• Recommendations – We’ll suggest personalized at-home practices and activities to promote continued progress and carryover between sessions.
• While most patients feel subtle warmth and relaxation during laser therapy, your comfort and safety are our top priorities. Please speak up if you have any questions or concerns before, during, or after treatment sessions.

Laser Therapy FAQs

Does laser therapy hurt?
Most patients report little to no discomfort during treatment. You’ll feel a gentle warmth at most. Unlike needles, injections, or surgery, the process is painless.

What happens during laser therapy sessions?
You’ll relax on an exam table while your therapist glides a handheld laser device above your pelvis. The device delivers targeted wavelengths of light energy, allowing muscles to release tightness and inflammation to decrease.

What if I feel too much pain during a session?
Communicate with your therapist so we can adjust the laser placement, intensity, or session duration to keep you comfortable. Your symptoms may temporarily intensify as tense areas start to release – we’ll guide you through it.
