How long does each treatment session take?

Treatment sessions typically last between 5-15 minutes, depending on the condition and area being treated. The high power output allows for shorter treatment times compared to traditional low-level laser therapy.

Is the treatment painful?

No, HPLT is not painful. Most patients experience a mild, comfortable warming sensation in the treated area. Some patients report feeling relaxed during and after treatment.

How many sessions will I need?

The number of sessions varies based on your condition and its severity. Acute conditions may respond in 4-6 sessions, while chronic conditions might require 8-12 sessions or more. Your healthcare provider will create a personalised treatment plan.

When can I expect to see results?

Some patients experience immediate relief after their first session, particularly with pain and mobility. However, lasting results typically develop over several treatments as healing progresses.

Are there any side effects?

HPLT is generally very safe with minimal side effects. Some patients might experience temporary mild soreness or redness in the treated area, which typically resolves quickly.

Can I combine HPLT with other treatments?

Yes, HPLT often works well with other therapies like physical therapy, chiropractic care, or rehabilitation exercises. Your healthcare provider can integrate it into your overall treatment plan.

Is HPLT covered by insurance?

Coverage varies by insurance provider and policy. It's best to check with your insurance company and healthcare provider about coverage options.

How long do the results last?

Results can be long-lasting, especially when combined with recommended exercises and lifestyle modifications. Some chronic conditions may require periodic maintenance treatments.

Are there any conditions where HPLT should not be used?

HPLT should not be used over active cancer sites, directly over growth plates in children, or during pregnancy. It's important to inform your provider about any medical conditions you have.

What should I do before and after treatment?

No special preparation is needed before treatment. After treatment, you can return to normal activities immediately. Your provider may recommend specific exercises or activities to enhance the treatment's effectiveness.
