At Pointe Village Chiropractic, we offer cutting-edge Class IV Red Light Laser Therapy to help your body heal naturally. Using Summus medical laser technology, this treatment stimulates your cells to repair soft tissue, ligaments, cartilage, and nerves – so you can feel better, faster.
With roots in European medicine dating back to the 1970s, this advanced therapy was cleared by the U.S. FDA in 2004. Using state-of-the-art Class IV laser technology, we deliver precise red and near-infrared wavelengths that trigger a photochemical response in the body—helping reduce inflammation, swelling, muscle spasms, stiffness, and pain while supporting tissue repair.
This non-invasive treatment is based on photobiomodulation, a process that uses light energy to stimulate cellular activity at the mitochondrial level. The result is improved circulation and increased production of key healing factors, including VEGF (Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor), which supports the formation of new blood vessels and tissue recovery.
In simple terms, laser therapy enhances blood flow to the injured area, delivering more oxygen and nutrients where they’re needed most. It also boosts ATP (cellular energy) production and overall cellular function—helping the body repair itself more efficiently.
Many patients experience noticeable pain relief after just one or two treatments, allowing them to progress more quickly through their care plan and return to daily activities sooner.
Treatments are performed using a handheld device applied directly to the affected area for 2 to 9 minutes, depending on the treatment plan. Most patients feel a gentle, warming sensation and experience no downtime or side effects.
The goal is true healing—not just temporary symptom relief. While traditional approaches often focus on masking pain, Summus Class IV Medical Laser Therapy supports the body’s natural recovery process, making it an excellent option for patients seeking a more natural, effective solution.
THE SECRET IS LIGHT ENERGY
Laser therapy, also known as High Power Laser Therapy, uses specific wavelengths of light to target damaged tissue and support the body’s natural healing process. Similar to how sunlight fuels photosynthesis in plants, this light energy penetrates the skin and reaches the cellular level, initiating a process known as photobiomodulation.
This process enhances the body’s regenerative abilities while stimulating the production of endorphins and collagen—key components in pain relief and tissue repair. Over time, it can help restore injured tissue to a healthier, more functional state.
The result? Faster recovery, reduced pain, and decreased stiffness, swelling, and muscle spasms. As the affected area heals, normal function is restored—allowing patients to return to the activities they enjoy most.
At Pointe Village Chiropractic, we stay at the forefront of advanced treatment technologies. Our Summus Class IV Medical Laser Therapy uses precise, customizable settings to effectively target damaged tissues and promote efficient healing.
This non-invasive treatment reduces inflammation and supports tissue repair without discomfort or downtime, making it a trusted option for patients seeking safe, effective relief.
It’s also widely used by professional athletes and sports teams to support recovery and performance. In fact, our office features the same Summus Horizon Medical Laser technology used by the Detroit Tigers and Detroit Red Wings.
