Soft Tissue Laser Therapy is an FDA-cleared modality that reduces inflammation, promotes healing, and ultimately results in pain reduction. Laser Therapy is effective in treating acute pain, chronic conditions, and post-op pain. It works by flooding the tissue with light photons of a specific wavelength, which research shows to energize cells resulting in increased circulation to the injured area.
Laser therapy treatment is safe, painless, and fast. Deep Tissue Laser Therapy treatments are administered in 5 to 10 minutes with most patients seeing results within 3 to 5 treatments.
Deep Tissue Laser Therapy utilizes your body’s own recuperative abilities by stimulating increased cellular activity, inducing a series of healing responses in the injured tissues. During treatment you will feel a soothing warmth that identifies the beginning of an 18-24 hour process of modulated cellular activity leading to decreased pain and inflammation and increased range of motion.

What will you feel during laser therapy?
Laser therapy treatment is safe, painless and fast. Patients feel a soothing warmth as laser energy gently penetrates the tissue and boosts your body’s own regeneration powers to relieve your pain. Deep Tissue Laser Therapy treatments are usually administered for 5 to 10 minutes depending on the body location. Results can be immediate but the most observed results are after 4 to 6 treatment sessions. The body continues to benefit from the effects of the therapy for 18-24 hours after treatment. During this time, modulated cellular activity leads to decreased pain and inflammation. Our class IV laser has a power output of 9 Watts! This is in comparison to class III lasers which operate at .5 Watts. This means that our laser is almost 20 times more powerful. We can accomplish in 6 minutes what the class III laser accomplishes in 120 minutes or 2 hours.
How do we incorporate deep tissue therapy into your physical therapy?
Clinically, the greatest effect of laser in the practice setting occurs in combination with either hands-on or instrument Chiropractic adjustments and other manual modalities such as massage, electrical muscle stimulation and neuromuscular re-education. It works synergistically with these procedures to augment the body’s own healing ability. The combination of these therapies allow us to get our patients better quicker with less residual discomfort and less formation of scar tissue! Deep tissue laser has even been show to reduce scar tissue formations from past injuries and surgical procedures.
Is Deep Tissue Laser Therapy right for you?
Deep Tissue Laser Therapy has become preferred by patients who have not responded to other interventions. Its ability to impact pain on a cellular level provides pain relief for not only simple conditions but chronic and complex conditions as well.
Is Deep Tissue Laser Therapy the Same as Cold Laser?
No, cold laser is not even in the same ball park as DTLT. There are many different types of laser apparatuses being used in Chiropractic clinics, medical clinics, physical therapy clinics and other healthcare clinics that are toted as being deep tissue laser. DTLT comes from a Class IV Medical Laser and is the only therapeutic laser that has the technology and ability to penetrate to the deeper tissues. All the other lasers barely penetrate through your layers of skin, some may get down a quarter of an inch but the LCT-1000 can penetrate up to three-quarters of an inch which is considerably deeper than other devices.

Their team is GREAT. I've been a high end performer all my life, so I know a thing or 2 about physical therapy after injury. They WILL get you better.<br>Both chiropractors are gentle and have nice bedside manners.<br>Amanda and Sarah, the massage therapists, are beyond amazing. Life changing and exceptional skills.<br>Very friendly staff and dedicated staff, and they do their best to make it work with your schedule.<br>Not too busy, very conveniently located and accessible, relax setting. (and the electro therapy room screen might be AI scenery, but you just wanna go and spend a 3 weeks vacation in every one of these fictional places. I even look forward to the different one every week!)<br>And also they offer dry needling, which is, in my humble opinion and experience, exceptionally efficient for post -traumatic recovery.
Dr. Minter and his staff do a great job of listening to their patients needs as well as explaining treatments and course of action. They care about the patient and are always there to answer questions or concerns. I recommend them to you if you have any pain or discomfort.
Everybody here is great. From reception desk to Doctor Peters. Clean office, nice waiting room and pre-visit area. Schedules fill up quickly so don’t hesitate to use them.<br>Only part that wasn’t great was 20+ pages of paperwork to fill out as new patient.
The office always smells clean and the staff is everything wonderful and complete love bugs . Especially after this second accident I asked attorney to please send me back to this clinic for treatment because you really need your quality of life back , the whole team here help you achieve that .
I absolutely love this place! Very efficient and knowledgeable. They listen to the patient. The trifecta is Ruby front desk , Dr. Meyers and Sheryl the therapist!
I had been going to ASR for about six months after an accident left me with a messed up shoulder. I had done multiple shots and visited the chiropractor but didn’t get any relief until I started working with Dr. Chad Colby. After a few months, I wasn’t improving and the pain made every day life pretty rough. Dr. Colby not only listened to my concerns but we came up with a plan that ultimately lead me to have the relief I needed and helped with my recovery and mobility. He has amazing bedside manner (this is so important) and a great touch for dry needling. The staff here is also great. All the assistants that worked me listened and paid attention to where I was at on a day to day basis and we adjusted when needed. Overall, I just can’t say enough good things about Dr. Colby and his team. Even the other doctors I never met with were always very nice and welcoming. I’m sad to go but oh so thankful for getting on the road to feeling like myself again. If you need PT and have a choice, it’s a no brainer here - Dr. Colby. Thank you so very much.
I was in a accident this year and was recommended by my attorney at this location. My first impression was everyone from the doctors, front desk, massage therapist were very friendly and professional at all times. The doctor’s that have seen me were very knowledgeable and professional about their specialty and answered my questions to my satisfaction. The entire area also were very clean and tidy. I stuck with my physical therapy and got the results I wanted by sticking to it. Sorry if I dont know all your names but thank you so much! It was a pleasure to work with you all. You made my Physical therapy very fun and enjoyable to attend. God bless🙏🏽
Dr Trenton Minter and Rheanne are the best. They have helped me tons with my lower back pain. Very easy to schedule and be seen. Always listens and cares!
This business has the atmosphere of healing. Rheanne was absolutely amazing as well as the chiropractor! Very informative, very professional, and amazingly pleasant. I got an xray and an adjustment, I’ll be coming back for sure! Recommend 100%
Trenton is absolutely wonderful! He doesn’t just treat symptoms—he listens, cares, and makes sure you feel comfortable every step of the way. He always works with so much compassion, and I can honestly say I leave every appointment feeling better. If you’re looking for a chiropractor who truly cares about his patients, Trenton is the one!
I have been receiving therapy from this facility for a while now and I would highly recommend this office to anyone. The staff is friendly and helpful. It is very easy to make an appointment and the doctors are very knowledgeable and helpful. They explain the process and they make sure you understand what is going on. Pam U
The office staff is very friendly and courteous, putting the patients at ease upon entering the office.<br>Dr. Fiske and Dr. Watkins are thorough in their assessments and treatments, no matter who the patient is. They are courteous and professional in the manner with which they interact and treat all of their patients.
We have been going to the Summerlin location since we retired to Las Vegas. The husband and I have been very satisfied with the customer service and the doctors there.<br>Since Dr. Blanchard now works out of the South office, we have been seeing Dr. Parker G. He is great, very attentive and explains everything well.
I am so impressed with the Staff, Therapists and Doctors with Advanced Spine and Rehabilitation. From excellent Customer Service to their knowledge and expertise. I couldn’t be happier. Since they’ve taken me “under their wing” their care has been outstanding and comforting. Thank you!
