Class IV laser therapy has been around since 2003, and was designed to be a therapeutic medical laser. Many patients that our clients deal with are interested in feeling better without having to opt for even more potentially addictive pain killers, debilitating surgery, et cetera.
Not surprisingly, Class IV laser therapy is often used to help with back issues. Every year, approximately 50% of working Americans report experiencing back pain symptoms. There are numerous reasons this occurs. Many people struggle with their weight, and excess weight can place a strain on the back. Poor posture and sitting habits at work are also contributing factors to many back ailments. By offering Class IV laser therapy, your clinic can help serve the millions of people suffering from continual back pain.
Why Class IV laser therapy for your practice? Compared to Class III, Class IV lasers deliver more energy, which leads to reduced treatment time. Class IV lasers can also penetrate deeper into the body; Class III lasers can only go 2 cm deep at the most, while Class IV lasers are capable of up to 10 cm penetration. Finally, Class IV lasers deliver continuous energy, while Class III lasers frequently pulse or modulate their power, ultimately delivering less power per session.
Clinical studies have confirmed the benefits of Class IV laser therapy, and they include increased cell metabolism, enhanced nerve regeneration, quicker collagen production, better micro-circulation, reduced inflammation, increased lymphatic response, and more. A study published by the University of Delaware in 2009 found that, over the course of 5 sessions, Class IV lasers were able to improve the conditions of patients with osteoarthritis of the knee, plantar fasciitis, and leg sprains a majority of the time.
Class IV laser therapy is a powerful technology with proven results, and it can be used for either human or animal therapeutic healing. Offering this as an option at your clinic can help drive better margins as you position yourself as a leading provider of new technology.
