Laser Therapy

Precision healing. At the cellular level.

WHAT IS LASER THERAPY?

Class IV Surgical Laser Therapy — also known as photobiomodulation — uses concentrated therapeutic light energy to penetrate deep into tissue, stimulating the body's natural healing process at the cellular level. Unlike surface-level treatments, Class IV laser reaches muscles, joints, nerves, and connective tissue that other therapies simply cannot access.

At Evergreen Wellness, laser therapy is administered directly by Dr. Kim — bringing his 25+ years of clinical expertise to every session. This is not a passive treatment. It is a precision-guided therapeutic procedure.

HOW IT WORKS

Laser light is absorbed by the mitochondria — the energy centers of your cells. This stimulates the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) — the fuel your cells use for repair, regeneration, and normal function.

The result is a powerful cascade of healing responses:

  • Cellular repair and regeneration is accelerated

  • Inflammation is reduced at the source

  • Circulation and blood flow to damaged tissue improves

  • Collagen production is stimulated

  • Nerve function is supported and restored

  • Pain signals are reduced naturally — without medication

  • Back & neck pain

WHAT TO EXPECT — YOUR FIRST VISIT

  • Sessions

    Laser therapy sessions at Evergreen Wellness are performed directly by Dr. Kim — targeting specific areas with precise therapeutic light energy.

  • Eyewear

    Protective eyewear is provided and required during treatment.

  • Painless

    Sessions are painless — most patients feel a gentle warming sensation at the treatment site.

  • Length

    Sessions typically run 15 to 30 minutes depending on the area being treated and the complexity of the condition.

WHY CLASS IV

  • Not all laser therapy is the same. Class IV surgical laser delivers significantly higher power output than Class III or cold laser devices — allowing it to penetrate deeper into tissue and produce stronger, faster therapeutic effects. This is the same class of laser used in surgical and advanced clinical settings. At Evergreen Wellness you are receiving clinical-grade treatment — administered by a licensed practitioner with decades of experience.

LASER THERAPY FAQ

  • No — most patients feel a gentle warming sensation during treatment. Class IV laser therapy is non-invasive and well tolerated. Some patients with acute inflammation may feel mild sensitivity at the treatment site — this is temporary and normal.

  • This depends on your condition and its severity. Acute conditions often respond within 3 to 6 sessions. Chronic conditions typically require a longer course of treatment. Dr. Kim will assess your specific situation and recommend a treatment plan at your first visit.

  • Sessions run 15 to 30 minutes depending on the area being treated.

  • Yes — Class IV laser therapy has an excellent safety profile when administered by a trained practitioner. Protective eyewear is required during all sessions and is provided. Please inform Dr. Kim of any medications you are taking as some can increase photosensitivity.

  • Absolutely — laser therapy and acupuncture complement each other exceptionally well. Many patients receive both as part of a comprehensive treatment plan at Evergreen Wellness. Dr. Kim will advise on the optimal combination for your condition.

  • Laser therapy is particularly effective for musculoskeletal conditions — joint pain, sports injuries, tendonitis, nerve pain, and post-surgical recovery. It also works powerfully alongside acupuncture for neurological and inflammatory conditions.
