Innovative medical technologies offer effective alternative to traditional therapies
For LaserTech founder Craig Zimmerman, DC, helping people who suffer from chronic pain get their lives back is personal. A former gymnast and tennis enthusiast, Dr. Zimmerman introduced laser therapy to his patients 12 years ago when he couldn’t overcome the constant ache in his wrist after injury and years of overuse.
“The pain in my wrist went on for 27 years and really affected my quality of life and my ability to engage in sports and activities with my family that I enjoy doing,” said Dr. Zimmerman, a chiropractor who is board-certified in physical medicine modalities and whose practice focuses on innovative medical technologies. “I tried chiropractic therapies, exercise therapy, acupuncture and pain medication, but the problem continued to the point where my wrist became severely degenerated.”
After trying many types of treatments, Dr. Zimmerman knew he had to find a better solution for his condition as well as for his patients to improve their quality of life.The answer: a result-oriented combination of noninvasive medical technologies including laser therapy.
“When my wrist was treated with a combination of multiple types of lasers, it became totally 100-percent functional and I have been pain-free now for 12 years,” said Dr. Zimmerman. “Not only did the experience teach me there’s a different way to get relief, but I also discovered there’s a different way to get sustainable relief.”
Getting to the Source
At LaserTech, the highly trained, compassionate team of doctors and technicians offers safe and effective treatments that manage pain caused by a wide array of conditions including arthritis, neuropathy, spinal stenosis, back pain, sciatica, shoulder pain and knee pain—without the use of medications, steroid injections or surgery.The treatment modalities offered by the LaserTech team have been shown to resolve pain and heal damaged tissue.
“Pain is not really the problem, it’s an alarm telling you that there is a problem and you don’t want to turn that alarm off.You want to take care of the fire, so to speak,” said Dr. Zimmerman.
At LaserTech, doctors address four key sources of chronic pain using a combination of modalities specifically tailored to each individual patient’s needs.
“We go after the sources of pain including healing damaged tissue, modulating abnormal nerve transmission, regulating chronic inflammation and promoting quality movement,” said Dr. Zimmerman. “When we go after these core primary sources we find we have the best chance at achieving sustainable change for our patients.”
