Laser Therapy

Laser therapy at Nexus HealthHub is used as part of the management of selected musculoskeletal and soft tissue conditions.

We offer both MLS® Laser Therapy and Hilterapia® high-intensity laser therapy, allowing treatment to be selected according to the individual presentation, tissue involved and rehabilitation goals.

Laser therapy may be considered for people experiencing:

  • Tendon-related pain
  • Muscle and soft tissue injuries
  • Joint pain
  • Persistent musculoskeletal pain
  • Sports-related injuries
  • Recovery following tissue overload
  • Conditions where pain is limiting rehabilitation

What to Expect

Before laser therapy is recommended, we first assess your symptoms, medical history and physical presentation.

Treatment is non-invasive and is delivered directly to the relevant area using a therapeutic laser system.

Depending on the technology being used, treatment may involve:

  • MLS® Laser Therapy
  • Hilterapia® high-intensity laser therapy
  • Treatment targeted to a specific anatomical area
  • Integration with exercise rehabilitation
  • Combination with other appropriate therapies

The number and frequency of sessions will depend on the condition being treated and how you respond.

Our Approach

At Nexus HealthHub, laser therapy is not used as a standalone answer to every musculoskeletal problem.

Where appropriate, it is integrated into a wider treatment plan that may also include:

  • Chiropractic care
  • Exercise rehabilitation
  • Strength and conditioning
  • Dry needling
  • Sports therapy
  • Manual and soft tissue therapy
  • Movement and strength testing

Our aim is to use laser therapy to support symptom management and tissue recovery while also addressing movement, strength and physical capacity where relevant.

MLS® Laser Therapy

MLS® Laser Therapy uses specific wavelengths of therapeutic light delivered in a controlled manner.

It can be used as part of the management of selected painful and inflammatory musculoskeletal conditions and soft tissue injuries.

Hilterapia®

Hilterapia® is a form of high-intensity laser therapy designed to deliver therapeutic energy into deeper tissues.

It may be selected for certain musculoskeletal presentations where deeper tissue penetration is considered appropriate.
