If you’re searching for Laser Therapy in Edmonton, Gilbertson Chiropractic offers Class IV therapeutic laser treatments designed to reduce pain, speed up tissue healing, and improve range of motion — all without drugs or surgery.

Our Edmonton laser therapy services in the Callingwood neighbourhood use advanced light energy to support the body’s natural healing processes and help you feel better faster.

what is laser Therapy?

Laser Therapy — also known as Class IV therapeutic laser — uses focused light energy to stimulate cellular healing deep within soft tissues. The light energy helps increase circulation, reduce inflammation, and enhance tissue repair at the cellular level.

This form of therapy is non-invasive, painless, and can be used on many musculoskeletal conditions to improve healing, mobility, and overall comfort.

At Gilbertson Chiropractic in Edmonton’s Callingwood area, we use Laser Therapy to support recovery from chronic pain, post-injury healing, and mobility limitations.

Laser Therapy sessions are:

  • Non-invasive

  • Painless for most people

  • Performed with a handheld therapeutic laser device

Here’s what to expect:

  • The laser applicator is placed on the skin over the affected area

  • Light energy penetrates deep tissues

  • Most people feel a mild warming sensation

  • No incisions, needles, or anesthesia

Therapy sessions are typically relaxing — many patients read, listen to music, or rest comfortably during treatment.
