Soft Tissue Laser Therapy is an FDA-cleared modality that reduces inflammation, promotes healing, and ultimately results in pain reduction. Laser Therapy is effective in treating acute pain, chronic conditions, and post-op pain. It works by flooding the tissue with light photons of a specific wavelength, which research shows to energize cells resulting in increased circulation to the injured area.
Laser therapy treatment is safe, painless, and fast. Deep Tissue Laser Therapy treatments are administered in 5 to 10 minutes with most patients seeing results within 3 to 5 treatments.
Deep Tissue Laser Therapy utilizes your body’s own recuperative abilities by stimulating increased cellular activity, inducing a series of healing responses in the injured tissues. During treatment you will feel a soothing warmth that identifies the beginning of an 18-24 hour process of modulated cellular activity leading to decreased pain and inflammation and increased range of motion.

What will you feel during laser therapy?
Laser therapy treatment is safe, painless and fast. Patients feel a soothing warmth as laser energy gently penetrates the tissue and boosts your body’s own regeneration powers to relieve your pain. Deep Tissue Laser Therapy treatments are usually administered for 5 to 10 minutes depending on the body location. Results can be immediate but the most observed results are after 4 to 6 treatment sessions. The body continues to benefit from the effects of the therapy for 18-24 hours after treatment. During this time, modulated cellular activity leads to decreased pain and inflammation. Our class IV laser has a power output of 9 Watts! This is in comparison to class III lasers which operate at .5 Watts. This means that our laser is almost 20 times more powerful. We can accomplish in 6 minutes what the class III laser accomplishes in 120 minutes or 2 hours.
How do we incorporate deep tissue therapy into your physical therapy?
Clinically, the greatest effect of laser in the practice setting occurs in combination with either hands-on or instrument Chiropractic adjustments and other manual modalities such as massage, electrical muscle stimulation and neuromuscular re-education. It works synergistically with these procedures to augment the body’s own healing ability. The combination of these therapies allow us to get our patients better quicker with less residual discomfort and less formation of scar tissue! Deep tissue laser has even been show to reduce scar tissue formations from past injuries and surgical procedures.
Is Deep Tissue Laser Therapy right for you?
Deep Tissue Laser Therapy has become preferred by patients who have not responded to other interventions. Its ability to impact pain on a cellular level provides pain relief for not only simple conditions but chronic and complex conditions as well.
Is Deep Tissue Laser Therapy the Same as Cold Laser?
No, cold laser is not even in the same ball park as DTLT. There are many different types of laser apparatuses being used in Chiropractic clinics, medical clinics, physical therapy clinics and other healthcare clinics that are toted as being deep tissue laser. DTLT comes from a Class IV Medical Laser and is the only therapeutic laser that has the technology and ability to penetrate to the deeper tissues. All the other lasers barely penetrate through your layers of skin, some may get down a quarter of an inch but the LCT-1000 can penetrate up to three-quarters of an inch which is considerably deeper than other devices.

They are all amazing, they got me in fast, and we're very friendly, and answered any questions I had. They helped me much more than my old chiropractor 10/10 I highly recommend them!!
Called first thing this morning in need of an appointment asap and she immediately said "when can you get here"! Best customer service and bed side manner of any chiropractors office ive ever been in! 10/10 would recommend to ANYONE!
So thankful for Scott County Chiropractic, not only for me & my husband who has spinal bifta but for my foster son who spent the last 5 weeks in stiff pain and has FINALLY FOUND relief! Thank you Scott County Chiropractic!
Great vibes/energy from everyone who works here. Great work received from the doctor, and the new lady who specializes in muscle massages is amazing! Highly recommended!
I 100% recommend this place. The Dr. has helped me tremendously with my back pain. The staff is always welcoming and professional. Thank you to the best chiropractic team around!
Staff is amazing. Always so kind and caring. Dr Ivey takes his time listen to what you have going on. Would recommend to anyone. Entire staff makes you feel like family.
My family and I have been a patient since Scott. Co. Chiro opened. My daughter is an athlete and was initially seen for an old knee injury that just would NOT heal all the way. We were focusing on just the knee after seeing a specialist... but come to find out her pelvis is out of line- with routine adjustments and therapy- she has not had any issues since. We plan to get back 2/3 times a week for Preventive Maintenance before Off season training and AAU. Staff & Dr- friendly, fast and informative.
I suffer from migraines and the staff at Scott County Chiropractic has been wonderful at helping me manage them. I have been able to manage my migraine without medication with their help. They have worked with my schedule and been wonderfully at working with my insurance for reimbursement.
I have received chiropractic care for almost 10 years now. I suffered some injuries from a car wreck at 18 that went untreated for a few years. Since then I have worked desk jobs and physically demanding jobs, and even had a child. Each of these took their own toll on my body. I have recommended chiropractic care before, but never like this. Dr. Josh and his staff are truly the most kind and caring people, raising the bar for patient care. They all welcome my child in who has also started getting regular adjustments as a toddler. Dr. Josh is excellent at explaining what will be done and adapting as necessary. This is the best chiropractor and office I have been to.
We love this office and staff. My teenage daughter was suffering with headaches from neck strain during volleyball season . Getting adjusted weekly releived the tension and stress on her neck and shoulders to relieve the headaches . Staff always friendly and helpful . 🙂
Very friendly, we really like going, even my kids. He uses a lot of techniques I’ve never seen before (I’ve been to quite a few different chiropractors) and he seems to really get things to move. Always feel so much better after going. The staff is very friendly. Hope I can take my kids and myself here forever!<br><br>As for the 1-star comments, obviously they must be from friends and family of the previous Doctor. How petty and sad that fabricating ridiculous stories is your past time.
An excellent well managed business. The current chiropractor is just as skilled as the previous one, and the staff are very nice (especially Amber!) I’ll definitely always be a patient here.<br><br>Also, it’s very obvious most of these nasty negative reviews are entirely fake and have been posted out of petty spite over what happened with the previous Dr… Be careful what you believe without getting both sides of the story.
My husband and I have been going to Scott County Chiropractic for 2 years now and we have always received quality and professional care from all the staff. We have recommended several others to this clinic and they have had the same response. We are thankful to have found such a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere to receive adjustments.
The staff is excellent and very helpful and very friendly. They always make sure that I feel comfortable and work around my schedule to get me in. Also the doctor is amazing and said she down and talk to you and goes over everything With you. I’ve had nothing but a great experience and my pinched nerve is already getting better just after four visits. I would recommend Scott County chiropractic to anyone!
