The Calgary clinic opened in 2004 and has successfully treated thousands of people for conditions such as tendonitis, sciatica, cervical and shoulder injuries, tennis elbow, low back pain, TMJ syndrome, plantar fasciitis, sports injuries and arthritis. Treatments are a combination of laser therapy and manual therapy.
Laser therapy is proven to help reduce or eliminate inflammation. Light photons are deeply absorbed by soft tissue, stimulating physiological effects necessary to healing. It is a painless, noninvasive therapy which can help restore normal cell function and enhance the body’s healing processes.
The manual work provided by the therapists includes Manual Osteopathic Therapy, Somatics, Onsen® Therapy and Massage Therapy Techniques. These are used to assess and correct structural and functional imbalances. Improved musculoskeletal balance means the reduction or elimination of pain, an increased range of motion and the release of entrapped nerves or trigger points.
The cost is $131+GST per visit. An assessment is included in the first visit at no extra charge and each visit takes just under an hour. You are one-on-one with the therapist the whole time. You won't just be receiving laser therapy. Laser therapy is an important part of the treatment because of its ability to reduce or eliminate inflammation and speed up the healing process. The manual therapy is just as important because these techniques deal with the structural and muscular reasons why the pain and inflammation started. Laser Health Solutions has developed a unique therapy program using Osteopathic techniques, Laser Therapy, Somatics, and Massage Therapy that you won't find anywhere else. On average, only ten treatments are needed.

“I put up with the increasing pain in my shoulder for years. I thought it was arthritis and just an inevitable part of life in my fifties.
My wife heard about LaserHealth® Solutions and I decided to try it. The discomfort started going away after the first treatment and has continued improving with every visit.
I absolutely recommend LaserHealth® Solutions for anybody suffering needlessly from soft tissue pain.”
“Six months ago I was moving furniture and boxes, and I felt a strain on my right elbow. The next day I woke up with a little bit of stiffness, but I had to continue doing the job that I started the day before. This aggravated my elbow further to the point that if I bumped my arm I would drop things.
I first read about LaserHealth® Solutions and the work they do with lasers in a local newspaper article. I was a bit skeptical at first, but I was in pain and I had nothing to lose. Twelve treatments later I can't believe the difference. I woke up this morning without elbow pain and I slept through the night without any interruptions because of lying on it.
Thanks to all the doctors and staff, I'm now pain free!”
My feet started hurting in April 26. My right foot was really sore and I could not walk without pain. In July I got a pair of orthotics, but my right foot still had pain. I went to a podiatrist and I wore foot splints that were recommended by the doctor, but they didn't help either. I could not deal with the pain anymore and I heard a radio ad on QR77 about plantar fasciitis. I started treatments in January 27 and my feet started feeling really good. My right foot feels great, and my left foot is just about there too! I have a few more treatments left on my left foot, but I know that I am on my way to recovery. I am able to walk now without pain thanks to LaserHealth® Solutions!
“For a long time I have suffered with fibromyalgia. I have been suffering with pain in both of my shoulders.The right one for 3 years and the left one for a few months. They were so sore that I would wake up 2-3 times a night because of rolling onto them. After the laser treatments I now get a good night sleep without waking up in pain. So far I have been very grateful with the results, but I still need a few more treatments on the chronic right shoulder”.
“As a result of a fall in attempting to push a car during a snow storm, I separated my left shoulder. I had initially thought I had pulled a muscle but over the next few days, the pain in my shoulder grew to the point that I went to a Doctor, who advised me that I had a medium separation of my shoulder.Having seen the success that laser had on a daughter of a co-worker who had severely sprained her ankle, I was able to see Dr. Rob six days after I fell.My regular Doctor had predicted a 2 month recovery period based on the severity of the separation.After about 4 treatments (8 calendar days) I was able to go back to work, and was fully recovered in just over 3 1/2 weeks of treatment”.
I first started noticing different types of pain about 1 years ago, but I think I have really had problems longer then that. The pains in my knees would go from achy to sharp to not being able to bear weight on them after activities. Gradually the pains got worse and to the point where going down stairs and running down hills was worse than going up! Until this last year the pains were progressively getting worse and my knees were starting to swell with activity. The last 4-6 months I haven't really been able to do any activities because of my knees. I tried taking anti-inflammatories for the pain during activities but it got to the point… View the whole post
The pain on my right hand started 6-8 months ago, which my doctor called tendonitis. I had a lot of sharp pain from my middle finger going up to my wrist especially at night, and I can't lift up my middle finger when it is bent.
Somebody recommended laser treatment because it helped her as well. I already felt better on my first treatment, and after only four treatments, I am 8 % better.
I recently suffered from acute lower back pain. The pain was unbearable at times and just doing the easiest tasks was impossible. Hearing about Laser Therapy and deciding to give it a try, the results were somewhat amazing after only the first treatment. The pain and soreness I had been feeling over a week had subsided substantially. By the end of treatment I was feeling good and back on my feet! I would highly recommend Laser Therapy, it works great.
