BIOFLEX® Laser Therapy is a non-invasive, light-based treatment that uses red and near-infrared wavelengths to stimulate healing deep within the body. At London Chiropractic and Massage Clinic, this innovative therapy is helping patients recover from a wide range of conditions, including arthritis, sports injuries, back pain, and nerve damage. Our approach to BIOFLEX® Laser Therapy is designed to reduce pain, accelerate recovery, and improve quality of life—without drugs, injections, or surgery.
How Does BIOFLEX® Laser Therapy Work?
Photobiomodulation: Fueling the Body’s Healing Process
At the heart of BIOFLEX® Laser Therapy is a process called photobiomodulation. When red and near-infrared light penetrates the skin, it’s absorbed by the cells, specifically the mitochondria—the “powerhouses” of the cell. This interaction boosts the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), a molecule that provides energy for cell repair, regeneration, and immune responses.
Think of ATP as fuel. When your cells have more energy, they can heal more quickly and effectively. As a result, inflammation decreases, circulation improves, and damaged tissue begins to recover. The therapy also reduces oxidative stress, helping protect cells from further injury.
Red light (in the 630–680 nm range) targets superficial tissues—ideal for treating surface inflammation, wounds, and bursitis. Near-infrared light (810–840 nm) penetrates more deeply to affect muscles, joints, ligaments, and nerves, making it effective for chronic pain and complex musculoskeletal injuries.
Safe, Comfortable Sessions
Unlike treatments that involve needles or heat, BIOFLEX® therapy is entirely non-invasive. During a typical session, patients lie comfortably while the light is applied directly to the area of concern. Treatments are pain-free—some patients report a gentle warmth or tingling, but most feel nothing during the session.
At London Chiropractic and Massage Clinic, initial assessments and combination sessions last 45 minutes, while laser-only follow-up appointments are typically 30 minutes. These longer treatment times ensure full tissue saturation with therapeutic light, which is essential for long-term results.
Conditions Treated with BIOFLEX® Laser Therapy
Arthritis and Joint Pain
One of the most common uses of BIOFLEX® is for osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and joint degeneration. The therapy helps reduce stiffness, improve range of motion, and lower inflammation in affected joints. In some cases, it may also promote cartilage regeneration, helping slow the progression of degenerative disease.
Sports Injuries and Overuse Conditions
Athletes and physically active individuals often experience conditions like sprains, strains, tendonitis, and rotator cuff injuries. These respond well to BIOFLEX®, which enhances tissue repair and reduces the inflammation that contributes to pain and limited mobility. The therapy is also useful for whiplash injuries and repetitive strain conditions, especially when paired with manual therapy or rehabilitation.
Nerve Pain and Neuropathy
BIOFLEX® has shown strong results in addressing diabetic neuropathy, carpal tunnel syndrome, and radiculopathy (nerve pain radiating from the spine). Improving microcirculation and reducing inflammation around nerve roots can help restore sensation, reduce tingling or numbness, and support nerve regeneration.
Chronic Conditions and Wounds
Laser therapy can also play a role in healing chronic wounds, ulcers, and post-surgical sites. Patients with compromised circulation, such as those with diabetes, may struggle to heal naturally. BIOFLEX® stimulates blood flow and tissue growth, speeding up recovery and lowering the risk of complications.
