Do you struggle with muscle spasms and pain? Are you looking for something to help speed up your healing? At Top Choice Physical Therapy & Wellness in Union City & Jersey City, NJ, our therapists use modern technology, like infrared therapy, to help you feel good again!
Whether you are recovering from a recent injury or dealing with a chronic condition, our therapists know how to get you results. Infrared therapy is a painless treatment using pads placed directly on your skin over the area of pain or injury.
What is infrared therapy?
Infrared therapy uses light energy with a specific wavelength shown to improve circulation and reduce inflammation and pain. It is also used to decrease muscle spasms and promote the healing of injured tissue.
The specific wavelength allows the light’s energy to penetrate the skin and be absorbed by deep tissues (i.e., the muscles). The more the infrared light penetrates the body, the more the circulation improves. This increased blood flow brings oxygenated rich blood, which promotes healing and also alleviates pain.
What to expect from infrared therapy
Infrared therapy uses deep penetrating light energy to alleviate tension and improve circulation in your muscles. This technology uses increased blood flow to help heal and repair injured tissues. In addition, infrared helps facilitate muscle recovery.
We will start with a thorough evaluation at your first appointment, including a physical assessment to identify all the factors contributing to your injuries and/or soreness. The information will help us develop a comprehensive program to reduce pain and improve motion.
Our team uses targeted stretches, manual therapy, strengthening exercises, and any modality, including infrared treatment deemed appropriate for your condition. We will then incorporate a progressive program to assist you in safely returning to doing what you love!
