Cold laser light therapy is a highly effective pain-relieving technique offered by Dr. Richard Mulcahy, of Spinal Decompression & Regenerative Therapy in Millersburg. According to Dr. Mulcahy, cold laser therapy has been an eye-opening experience for those who add it to the spinal decompression process he offers, which alleviates back pain and brings relief.

“ When we’ ve used cold light laser therapy in combination with spinal decompression treatment, the healing process has proven to be two to three times faster,” Dr. Mulcahy said.

What is Cold Laser Therapy?

Cold laser therapy is low-intensity laser therapy that stimulates healing while incorporating low levels of light. The technique is called“ cold” laser therapy because the low levels of light aren’ t enough to heat the body’ s tissue.

“ It basically helps speed up the metabolic healing process while decreasing inflammation and pain,” he explained.“ It’ s essentially pain relief at the speed of light.”

The results of cold laser therapy along with spinal decompression have left many of Dr. Mulcahy’ s patients feeling elated about their decision to give it a try.

“ Before cold laser, I couldn’ t sleep well at all because of the pain traveling from my lower neck into the back of my head and face,” Linda Brenly said.“ After the treatments, I can work much better and sleep well again without the neck pain. I am pleased with my cold laser treatments. Since the first treatment, I have had no sharp, shooting pain.”

For many people suffering from chronic back, neck, shoulder and sciatica pain, treating the symptoms and living with the pain or having surgery seemed to be the only options.

Spinal Decompression

After Dr. Mulcahy introduced spinal decompression to the area, the results have been a game-changer for many.

Dr. Mulcahy’ s clinic, Spinal Decompression & Regenerative Therapy, is in Millersburg. As a certified spinal decompression chiropractor, his services are unique to the region.

After being diagnosed with severe spinal osteoarthritis, bulged discs and spinal stenosis, my orthopedic doctor scheduled me for spine surgery.

Specializing in spinal decompression, Dr. Mulcahy has helped many people suffering from intolerable back pain. The results have not only dramatically decreased patients’ pain but also prevented them from having to undergo costly surgery followed by a lengthy rehabilitation. It also has proven to be much less expensive. Spinal decompression offers a safe, nonsurgical and cost-affordable alternative to surgery, with an 86 % success rate.

“ Over my years of practicing, I had patients who eventually stopped responding to chiropractic manipulation because their degeneration had gotten to a point

where they were getting little to no relief,” Dr. Mulcahy said.“ Spinal Decompression is more than simply treating the symptoms. It’ s a healing process.”

Spinal decompression has proven effective for all types of back pain, including herniated or degenerative discs, Facet syndrome, sciatica, post-surgical patients without hardware and spinal stenosis.

Dr. Mulcahy said that while traditional chiropractic treatments are ideal for many people, sometimes there are needs that go beyond that, which is where spinal decompression became an effective alternative.
