Advanced Healing Technology for Faster Recovery

Getting our patients the healing help they need is one of our greatest passions at Hoover Spine and Joint Center. In addition to chiropractic care and spinal decompression, we are now offering laser therapy with the Summus Class IV Laser.

Why Summus Class IV Laser?

We chose to offer this laser at our office because it’s the deepest penetrating laser on the market. Class 4 is the only laser that has extensive research to back its clinical results. These lasers have been tried and tested by doctors over the past 20 years.

The Summus Class IV Laser uses four wavelengths—where the next best in class only uses two. Each wavelength creates a different physiological response within the cells of the targeted tissue, moving them through their natural healing process 30-50% faster. With laser therapy, we’re able to reduce overall treatment protocols and get patients out of pain faster.

Who Can Benefit From Laser Therapy?

Laser therapy is highly effective for a wide range of chronic and acute conditions. You could benefit from this treatment if you struggle with:

  • Arthritis of the knee or spine
  • Degenerative disc disease
  • Neuropathy and Paget’s syndrome
  • Rotator cuff and shoulder injuries
  • Chronic knee pain and loss of range of motion
  • Sinus conditions
  • Wounds (e.g., diabetic ulcers)
