Photobiomodulation Therapy (Laser): Exam & Treatment Upper Extremities

Session time: 8 - 10 am

CEU Hours: 2
Presenter: Rick Amy, DC

​

Session Description

As DCs, our patients come to us primarily for

Neuromuscular Pain Syndromes (NPS). These include nerve, muscle, tendon and joint related conditions that affect their muscle strength and limit their ROM. These disorders weaken muscles because of interrupted communication between the nervous system and those muscles. This increases the physical load on nerves, muscles, tendons, joints and discs thereby increasing chronic pain, inflammation and joint degeneration (arthritis).
