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.
If you have insurance benefits which allow you to see a Registered Massage Therapist (RMT), you can claim reimbursement for Laser Health Solutions treatments when you see one of our RMTs. If you have any of the following insurance and are able to see a Manual Osteopathic Therapist (DMO), you are able to claim reimbursement when treated by one of our osteopaths: Blue Cross, Desjardins, Empire Life, Equitable Life, Great West Life, Canada Life, Greenshield, Manulife or Sunlife.

“I heard about LaserHealth® Solutions through a buddy of mine who plays a lot of sports like I do. I had a frozen shoulder since about February of this year (2006) and also an injury to my left elbow. I was attending tradition physiotherapy where they stretch you out. And while I had made some progress, the pain wasn't really dissipating, nor was I gaining much range of motion. I also found the exercises and stretches to be very painful while doing them and it took days to recover.
So I came into the clinic (LaserHealth® Solutions) despite being a little skeptical. After the second session I noticed a huge improvement. After… View the whole post
Having suffered with low back pain for 3 years because of my arthritis, I was skeptical that anything could help me. I had tried many therapies that never took away the pain.
Well, I can no longer say that…. The Laser treatments have helped me tremendously!!!
Tomorrow, I'll be leaving for my holiday and looking forward to enjoy every minute of it.
I was involved in a motor vehicle accident that occurred when a driver ran a red light. I was T-boned on the driver's side of the vehicle. The impact was significant and the damage required that they cut me out of my car. Although I did not fracture any bones I had significant soft tissue damage to my upper body, hips, lower back and pelvis. I was on a significant amount of analgesic and wasn't able to move very well.
I started Laser Therapy within 5 days after the accident. After approximately 1 weeks of treatment, I am relatively pain free, back at work and riding horses again. In fact, I'm feeling better now than before the accident! Thanks to Amphy and LaserHealth® Solutions.
I have been suffering from agonizing and aching pain in the lower back, left hip area, and sacrum for over 20 years. The pain had been so terrible that I couldn't walk or sit. I tried everything imaginable for the relief. Drugs would only mask the symptoms. I heard about Laser Therapy on the radio and I thought I'm going to try this. Well, I can't believe it after 10 treatments I can now walk and sit without pain. I do not take anymore drugs to help relieve pain. I fully recommend Laser Therapy for anyone suffering from any form of pain.
Thanks to LaserHealth® Solutions and all the staff at the clinic that has helped me. You have put a smile on my face again.
I was somewhat disappointed after 6-7 months of severe pain, 3 trips to physio and 6 trips to a sports chiropractor - shifting the pain, but not reducing it. After seeing your newspaper ad and coming in for a consultation I was becoming optimistic. After just two sessions of laser treatment I could feel a reduction of pain and more freedom to use my arm and shoulder. Now after a total of nine treatments even on an intermittent basis (due to my work travel) the pain is almost non-existent. At least 98% gone! In November I went on vacation and played 6 rounds of golf in 1 days and no pain. I have recommended your services to many people and will continue to do so. Thank you.
“Having suffered with the pain of tendonitis for about six months and not having success with physiotherapy I heard about Laser Therapy.
As a result of the pain in my elbow, I lost strength in my arm and hand to the extent that I could not grasp a jar to take off the lid, or lift my arm and bend my elbow. I also lost range of motion in my shoulder and neck and had pain in my shoulder and neck.
I had fast relief from the pain in my elbow and quickly started to regain the strength in my arm and hand. The treatment is painless and effective.
I was diagnosed with osteoarthritis in my lumbar spine on February 23, but still came to LaserHealth® Solutions with a positive attitude!
My back had been bothering me more and more over the years. I was still able to golf but just like many others, I was playing with a lot of pain and taking lots of medications.
After my 4th treatment with Laser, I felt quite a relief in pain. It was not as sharp as before. As I kept coming for my sessions, the pain level continuously decreased and my mobility increased.
It's my 11th and last treatment today, I can say that I am 80% better now!!!
“I had pain in my right wrist that only seemed to get worse as time went on.My Chiropractor (Dr. Rob) suggested Laser Therapy as a way to treat the injury and the pain.A close friend of mine had also had the Laser Therapy done and recommended it highly.Dr. Rob said it would take about 3 to 4 visits.After my first 30 min. treatment I was almost pain free and had full motion back in my wrist.After the second visit I had no pain and would never have known I had even had an injury.I had a total of 3 treatments and am still pain free and very happy with the results.I would recommend this to anyone living with an injury or pain.
I came in with chronic shoulder pain that had been a problem for about 1 years. It had started after a bike accident. Over time I was less able to do things such as painting the house and lifting my arm over my head, lateral raises at the gym, side planks etc. I had already tried physical therapy, massage therapy, acupuncture, bought a TENS machine, anti-inflammatory medication, and of course lots of ice. As my knee improved, my shoulder started acting up. The physical therapist that I had been seeing recommended that I see a Sports Medicine Dr. and get a cortisone shot. I had already had one in my knee and it was not something that I wanted… View the whole post
I have had pain in my thumbs for the last 4 years, but they have gotten really sore in the last year. There is swelling in the thumb joints, I couldn't lift pans in the kitchen, buttons were a problem along with other fine motor control actions and it was getting worse. I didn't want to go on pills, so I tried a medicated cream, glucosamine, ibuprofen, Tylenol and oil from an aroma therapy shop (it worked better then the medicated one!). I heard about LHS from my daughter-in-law who knew that I was having problems with my thumbs. Now, after 11 treatments I am not taking glucosamine, Tylenol or ibuprofen, I am just using the aroma therapy… View the whole post
