When you come in for cold laser therapy at our Pinole, CA clinic, your appointment begins with a brief assessment to ensure we understand the location and nature of your pain or injury. You’ll sit or lie comfortably while we use a handheld device to apply the laser light to the affected area. Each session takes just a few minutes (usually 5–20 minutes depending on the area being treated), and you’ll feel little to no sensation—maybe a gentle warmth or tingling at most. There is no pain, no need for anesthesia, and absolutely no recovery time needed. After your session, you’re free to go about your day—most people return to work or activities immediately. For best results, we might recommend a series of treatments, spaced out over a few weeks, depending on your needs. Throughout the process, we’ll pair laser therapy with other supportive treatments like exercise or stretching to give you the fastest, longest-lasting results possible.
