What Is Class IV Laser Therapy?
Class IV laser therapy uses a high-power laser to deliver light energy into the deeper layers of tissue. Even with that deeper reach, the treatment is non-invasive. The light energy is designed to stimulate tissue repair at the cellular level, help reduce inflammation, and support pain relief, all without medication or surgery.
The gentle warmth and deeper reach of a Class IV laser are what set it apart from lighter, low-level lasers. At ProWellness Family Chiropractic, we offer Class IV laser therapy as part of our goal to give patients effective, drug-free care. It can support recovery from a variety of conditions, from joint pain to soft-tissue injuries. You simply relax while the laser does the work, and most people feel only a soothing warmth.
Class IV laser therapy is a form of laser treatment that reaches deeper into the body's tissues to support healing where it is needed most. It is designed to help ease deep-tissue injuries, reduce inflammation, and improve cellular energy. Whether you are dealing with a sports injury or stubborn inflammation, we at ProWellness Family Chiropractic can provide the care you need to get back on your feet and out doing what you love. Laser therapy is one of the tools in our pain control clinic in Lincolnton, and it works quietly and painlessly while you rest.
What to Expect During Laser Therapy
There is nothing to dread here. You relax while a handheld laser is moved over the treatment area, and most people feel a gentle, pleasant warmth. There are no needles and no recovery to plan for. Before your first session, we go over your history and what you can expect, then get you comfortable and started.
Is Class IV Laser Therapy Right for You?
Laser therapy is a low-risk, drug-free option that suits many people looking to avoid medication or surgery. There are important exceptions. Laser is generally avoided directly over active cancers, over the abdomen during pregnancy, and near certain implants, so we always screen your history first. Some patients notice temporary redness or warmth in the treated area from the increased blood flow, which fades quickly. If laser is not the right choice for you, we will point you toward a therapy that is.
Cost, Insurance, and Payment
What laser therapy costs depends on the number of sessions your plan calls for and whether it is combined with adjustments or other therapies. Coverage varies by plan, and many policies treat laser therapy differently. Our team verifies your benefits up front and explains self-pay options clearly, so you know what to expect before you begin.

She graduated from Sherman College of Chiropractic in 2006 and folds laser therapy into a bigger plan so it works alongside your other care rather than on its own.
