Class IV Laser Therapy
Deep-tissue laser applied over an inflamed area, used as an adjunct during a flare, never as the plan on its own.
The applicator warms the area and the session is quiet and passive. Evidence for laser is mixed and we treat it accordingly: an adjunct that some patients respond well to, priced as an add-on, and dropped if you are not one of them.
What it changes
- ✦Comfortable, passive, ten minutes
- ✦Useful adjunct during an acute flare
- ✦Dropped from the plan if you do not respond
Safety & what to expect
Not used over the eyes, over a suspected malignancy, or during pregnancy. Protective eyewear is worn in the room.

Compression Recovery
Sequential compression boots for the legs, used after hard sessions and long races, and as a comfortable way to spend a recovery visit.
