Class IV Laser

Class IV Laser Therapy

Advanced Support for Healing, Recovery, and Pain Reduction

Class IV Laser Therapy is a non-invasive treatment used to support the body’s natural healing process. By delivering focused light energy into injured or inflamed tissues, laser therapy helps improve circulation, reduce inflammation, and support cellular repair.

At Bernardo West Chiropractic, we use laser therapy as part of a comprehensive care approach designed to help patients heal more efficiently and return to movement with greater confidence.

Laser therapy works through a process called photobiomodulation, where light energy interacts with cells to support mitochondrial activity and energy production (ATP). This process may help:

  • Calm inflammation
  • Increase blood flow to injured tissues
  • Support tissue repair
  • Reduce pain and stiffness


Laser therapy does not force change—it supports the body’s ability to heal when conditions are right.

Laser therapy is commonly used for:

  • Acute and chronic back or neck pain
  • Muscle strains and ligament sprains
  • Tendon and joint irritation
  • Overuse injuries
  • Recovery from physical stress or athletic training

Laser therapy is often most effective when used consistently and in combination with chiropractic care, exercise, and healthy movement habits.

Sessions are quick, typically lasting 5–10 minutes

Response varies from person to person. Some patients notice changes quickly, while others experience gradual improvement over a series of visits.

Laser therapy is not a standalone solution. It is a supportive tool we use when inflammation, tissue irritation, or delayed healing is limiting progress.
