MLS Laser Therapy: Accelerating Healing for Acute, Chronic, and Post-Surgical Pain

At Casto Chiropractic, we’re proud to offer MLS Laser Therapy, an advanced, FDA-approved, non-invasive treatment that reduces pain, speeds up healing, and restores function. Whether you're dealing with acute injuries, chronic pain, or recovering from surgery, MLS Laser Therapy can be a highly effective solution to help you feel better and heal faster.

What is MLS Laser Therapy?

MLS (Multiwave Locked System) Laser Therapy utilizes two specific wavelengths of light to penetrate deep into tissues, stimulating the body’s natural healing processes. This therapy increases cellular energy (ATP), which reduces inflammation, promotes tissue repair, and improves circulation. The result? Faster recovery, less pain, and enhanced mobility.

10 Key Benefits of MLS Laser Therapy

1. ANTI-INFLAMMATORY

Reduce inflammation and edema by stimulating lymphatic drainage and vasodilation.

2. ANALGESIC

Stimulate the production of endorphins and enkephalin to block the transmission of painful sensations to the brain. Reduced pain is also a secondary result of reduced edema and inflammation.

3. ACCELERATED TISSUE REPAIR AND CELL GROWTH

Photons penetrate deep into the tissue and accelerate cellular growth and reproduction. Laser increases the energy available to cells so they can take on nutrients, remove waste, and repair themselves faster.

4. IMPROVED VASCULAR ACTIVITY

Increase the formation of capillaries in damaged tissue to accelerate the healing process. Additional benefits include temporary vasodilation and an increase in blood vessel diameter.

5. INCREASED METABOLIC ACTIVITY

Create higher outputs of specific enzymes, greater oxygen and food particle loads for blood cells.

6. TRIGGER AND ACCUPUNCTURE POINTS

Stimulate accupuncture and muscle trigger points to non-invasively provide musculoskeletal pain relief.

7. REDUCED FIBROUS TISSUE FORMATION

Reduce the formation of scar tissue following tissue damage from cuts, scratches, burns, or surgery.

8. IMPROVED NERVE FUNCTION

Accelerate the process of nerve cell re-connection and increase the amplitude of action potentials to optimize muscle healing.

9. IMMUNOREGULATION

Stimulate immunoglobulins and lymphocytes. Activate the enzyme flavomononucleotide to start the production of ATP—the major carrier of cell energy and the energy source for all chemical reactions in the cells.

10. FASTER WOUND HEALING

Stimulate the development of fibroblast—an essential protein for tissue repair. As a result, MLS Laser Therapy is effective for postsurgical healing and the treatment of open wounds and burns.

  • Acute Injuries: Sports injuries, sprains, and strains

  • Chronic Pain: Conditions like arthritis, tendonitis, and muscle pain

  • Post-Surgical Recovery: Enhances healing, reduces swelling, and can help minimize scar tissue formation

MLS Laser Therapy: FAQ’s

1. What is MLS Laser Therapy?

MLS (Multiwave Locked System) Laser Therapy is an FDA-approved, non-invasive treatment that uses two specific wavelengths of light to target deep tissues. This therapy reduces pain, accelerates healing, and decreases inflammation by stimulating cellular processes and improving circulation. It is effective for treating both acute and chronic conditions, as well as aiding in post-surgical recovery.

2. How does MLS Laser Therapy work?

MLS Laser Therapy works by delivering precise wavelengths of light to the affected area. The light is absorbed by the cells, which enhances their ability to produce energy (ATP), accelerates tissue repair, reduces inflammation, and promotes better circulation. This process speeds up healing and reduces pain naturally.

3. Is MLS Laser Therapy painful?

No, MLS Laser Therapy is completely painless. During treatment, you may feel a gentle, soothing warmth as the laser energy penetrates the skin. Many patients find the treatment relaxing and report feeling better after just a few sessions.

4. How long do MLS Laser Therapy sessions take?

Each session typically lasts between 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the area being treated. It’s a quick and convenient procedure that requires no downtime, allowing you to return to your normal activities immediately after treatment.

5. How many treatments will I need?

The number of treatments depends on your condition and how your body responds to the therapy. For acute conditions, a few sessions may be sufficient, while chronic pain or post-surgical recovery may require more treatments. Your chiropractor will assess your needs and create a personalized treatment plan for you.

6. Is MLS Laser Therapy effective for all types of pain?

MLS Laser Therapy is highly effective for a variety of conditions, including:

  • Muscle sprains and strains

  • Tendon and ligament injuries (e.g., tendonitis)

  • Sports injuries

  • Plantar fasciitis

  • Spine pain and disc inflammation / swelling

  • Joint pain and arthritis

  • Neuropathy, Numbness

  • Wounds

  • Post-surgical swelling to regain normal function faster

  • Shoulder sprains and strains

  • Knee pain associated with ligament tears or ruptures

    It’s an excellent alternative to traditional treatments like medications, injections, and surgery.

7. How does MLS Laser Therapy compare to steroid injections?

MLS Laser Therapy is often compared to a non-invasive steroid shot, as it provides similar pain relief by targeting inflammation. However, unlike steroid injections, MLS Laser Therapy has no side effects, doesn’t involve any needles or medications, and promotes natural healing without long-term risks associated with steroids.

8. Are there any side effects?

No, MLS Laser Therapy is a safe, FDA-approved treatment with no known side effects. It is non-invasive and drug-free, so there is no risk of adverse reactions, unlike some medications or injections.

10. How soon will I feel results?

Many patients start to feel relief after just a few sessions. While results can vary, some experience significant improvement in pain and mobility within 2 to 4 treatments. Chronic conditions may require more treatments to see full results, but most patients report noticeable improvement after a few weeks of therapy.

11. Who is a good candidate for MLS Laser Therapy?

MLS Laser Therapy is suitable for most people, including those with acute injuries, chronic pain, or those recovering from surgery. It’s safe for patients of all ages and can be used alongside other treatments.
