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.

Low Intensity Laser Therapy has been a Godsend! Unlike my first encounter with Plantar Fasciitis, which lasted over a 3-year period, I have experienced a great deal of relief with Laser Therapy. And after only 6 treatments. I would highly recommend laser treatments to anyone who wishes to return to their normal level of functioning. Laser, stretching and ice have worked wonders in getting me back on track.
I had been suffering from a sore foot and unable to walk normally for about 6 weeks. I had been to see my doctor who diagnosed it as plantar fasciitis. I was also seeing a massage therapist who had been working on the muscles attached to the fascia but I had not really had any relief from the pain. A friend of mine mentioned Laser Therapy treatment. I asked some questions and decided to try the Laser Therapy. The day after the first treatment, I felt a difference when I stood on my foot. With each treatment the pain seemed to lessen and now I am walking normally again with virtually no pain. This is after 13 treatments. I am still… View the whole post
Since having 9 laser treatment on my right knee, I have NO pain! Plus, I feel much more sure as I walk and I'm not so wobbly. Now I'm able to get back at gardening with lots of rests between and I'm progressing.
I hurt my right shoulder and couldn't move my arm at all. After having had an x-ray, I came to LaserHealth® Solutions. I was pain free the same day after the first treatment and back to normal after the second one the next day.
In the summer of 24 at the age of 52 I was seriously considering retirement on disability. My left shoulder had been diagnosed with tendonitis about 15 years previous. Although my range of motion was restricted somewhat at that time, I was still able to perform my duties as a truck driver and enjoy some golf, fishing, and baseball. As my condition gradually worsened over the years, however, my job was becoming unbearable and I had to sacrifice or reduce those other activities. Simple actions like donning a jacket or reaching back to tuck in my shirt became a challenge, but I adapted to avoid the pain.
I just wanted to let you know how happy I am with the preliminary results of treatment #1.Please let your team know that about 1/2 hour after leaving your office I noticed that I had no pain in my shoulder.This is the first time in about 3 months that this has happened without the aid of drugs!!!!I did not have to use a blanket to support my elbow while driving until I hit the toll booth at the top of the Coquihalla and only then because the shoulder belt was putting slight pressure on the shoulder.I iced the shoulder when I got home at about midnight and I did not have to use percocet to get to… View the whole post
I am a diabetic. One day, out of the blue, I began to suffer with severe pain form the right side of my lower back down my right leg to my knee. The pain was so strong that even the weight of my clothing was too much to bear.
The doctors were puzzled and set about eliminating things like kidney stones, bowel trouble, etc. and after many months, many doctors' visits and many tests, I ended up with severe pain and a large bottle of painkillers.
The opinion was that my diabetes had caused my blood vessels to constrict and stop supplying my nerves with the blood that they needed to function and the pain was the nerves crying out. They… View the whole post
I was pleasantly surprised and very impressed. I just recently retired from pro football (CFL) and have suffered a variety of injuries over the years through the course of my career. This has given me exposure to a variety of treatment methods (Eastern & Western styles, Modulations and Manual) allowing me to see what methods were most effective for each different type of injury.
After being referred here by someone who had great success with a lower back disc injury. I felt it deserved a serious look. So I watched their CD overview, and researched some information on the internet, finding it to be based on solid science. It is very… View the whole post
Dave presented to LaserHealth® Solutions complaining of chronic shoulder pain. It all started last January while he was sweeping on his curling team. Now that spring has arrived he wanted to enjoy lawn bowling and didn't want his aggravated shoulder interfering with his next form of recreation. He completed 6 laser treatments on his left shoulder and this is what he had to say…
To the staff at LaserHealth® Solutions, Thank you for the attention given to me and for the excellent results that the laser treatment provided on my shoulder (which had been troubling me for several months). I would not hesitate to recommend this form of treatment to anyone.
I went to LaserHealth® Solutions with Lymphedema in both ankles and feet. My legs felt sore all the time, aching from the knee down and sometimes from the hips after walking for a period of time. There was significant stiffness in the joints.
After I started the treatments, I banged two of my toes on an iron leg of a chair. There was a significant amount of bruising and discoloration and a lot of swelling. After 4 treatments, there was no bruising and no swelling left. It was remarkable!
I am now receiving treatments for my legs, they feel tired but they don't ache anymore. I am now able to walk without… View the whole post
