Let’s be real—“laser therapy” might sound high-tech or even a little intimidating at first. If you’re dealing with chronic pain, recovering from surgery, or simply trying to avoid another round of prescription meds, it’s normal to ask: Is laser therapy actually safe?
The short answer? Yes, laser therapy is safe—and it’s backed by decades of research. In fact, it’s been used around the world for more than 50 years to promote healing, reduce pain, and restore function—naturally and non-invasively.
At BioRestore Laser Therapy in North Texas, we specialize in a system that takes safety and effectiveness to the next level: the Phoenix Thera-Lase System. Let’s break down the science, the research, and the reasons why this drug-free treatment could be your body’s new best friend.
What Is Laser Therapy, Really?
Laser therapy—sometimes called “photobiomodulation” or “low-level laser therapy”—uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate the body’s natural healing process. Think of it like giving your cells a powerful energy boost.
Here’s how it works:
- The laser penetrates deep into your tissue—up to 7 inches with our Phoenix Thera-Lase system.
- That light stimulates mitochondria (your cells’ energy centers) to produce more ATP, which fuels healing and regeneration.
- The result? Reduced pain, decreased inflammation, increased circulation, and faster recovery—all without drugs or surgery.
Is It Safe?
Yes. Laser therapy is:
- Non-invasive
- Painless
- Drug-free
- FDA-cleared
It’s safe for skin, muscle, joints, and nerves. Most people report feeling nothing more than a warm sensation—or sometimes nothing at all—during a session.
The laser used at BioRestore doesn’t burn, cut, or damage tissue. Instead, it stimulates healing at a cellular level. That’s why it’s often used to treat:
- Sports injuries
- Arthritis
- Post-surgical pain
- Neuropathy
- Sciatica
- And more
What the Research Says
You don’t have to take our word for it—there are hundreds of peer-reviewed studies confirming both the safety and effectiveness of laser therapy.
A few highlights:
- A 2020 review in Lasers in Medical Science found laser therapy significantly reduced pain and inflammation in both acute and chronic conditions, with minimal side effects.
- The World Association for Laser Therapy (WALT) has created guidelines based on decades of global clinical research, supporting the use of photobiomodulation across a wide range of medical conditions.
- NASA has used light therapy to help astronauts recover from injuries in space. If it’s safe (and effective) in zero gravity, it’s safe here on Earth.
Plus, the Phoenix Thera-Lase System used at BioRestore goes even further—it’s been engineered to penetrate deeper and deliver more precise wavelengths, ensuring both safety and results.
Common Questions About Laser Therapy Safety
Will it hurt?
No. Most patients feel only warmth or nothing at all. There’s no pain, cutting, or downtime.
Are there any side effects?
Side effects are rare and usually mild. Some people feel a temporary increase in symptoms as the body begins to heal. That’s a normal and healthy response.
Can it be used alongside other treatments?
Yes. Laser therapy works great alongside physical therapy, chiropractic, and other rehab treatments. Many patients also use it post-surgery to speed up healing.
What about people with medical implants?
Laser therapy is generally safe around implants, but we’ll always review your medical history to make sure it’s right for you.
