"Dr. Gross made no promises, but Axial Decompression and spinal adjustments got me out of trouble from my herniated discs. His fee was less than half of what the other decompression offices charge."-Bill

"I limped into Dr. Gross' office with acute lower back pain. After he reviewed my lumbar MRI, he applied Axial Decompression and spinal adjustments. I felt much better after that first treatment."-Arthur

"Axial Decompression and spinal adjustments got me over the "hump" of constant low back pain. Though I wish I had known that Axial Decompression was available earlier , Dr. Gross
came to my rescue."-Marina

"Spine Surgery did not resolve my low back pain. However, Axial Decompression has made me much more comfortable and enabled me to return back to work." -Giles

 

COLD LASER THERAPY:


How many treatments does it take?

This depends on the nature of the condition being treated. For some acute conditions 1-6 treatments may be sufficient. Those of a more chronic nature may require 10 to 15 (or more) treatments. Conditions such as severe arthritis may require ongoing periodic care to control pain.

The History of Laser Therapy

The first low-level therapeutic laser was developed in 1962. By the end of the 1960's Endre Mester in Hungary was reporting an improved healing of wounds through low-level laser therapy. Since then, scientist and doctors around the world have been using laser light to treat conditions that can affect all age groups.

What is Low-Level Laser Therapy

Low-Level Laser Therapy is the application of red and near infrared light over injuries or wounds to improve soft tissue healing and relieve both acute and chronic pain. Low-level therapy uses cold (sub thermal) laser light energy to direct bio-stimulative light energy to the body's cells without injuring or damaging them in any way. The therapy is precise and accurate. It offers safe and effective treatment for a wide variety of conditions.

How Does Low-Level Laser Therapy Work?

Low-level lasers supply energy to the body in the form of non-thermal photons of light. Light is transmitted through the skin's layers at all wavelengths in the visible range. However, light waves in the near infrared ranges penetrate the deepest of all light waves in the visible spectrum. When low-level laser light waves penetrate deeply into the skin, they optimize the immune responses of our blood. This has both anti-inflammatory and immunosuppressive effects. It is a scientific fact that light transmitted to the blood in this way has positive effects throughout the whole body, supplying vital oxygen and energy to every cell.
