Non-Surgical Cold Laser Therapy
Are You Suffering from Arthritis or Have Chronic Joint Pain?
If you suffer from chronic musculoskeletal pain, arthritic joints, nagging injuries, neuropathy, and other painful problems in the Danbury, CT area, you need a treatment approach that helps you feel and function better as safely and non-invasively as possible. Chiropractic adjustment can offer remarkable benefits, but the doctors and therapists at PMR of Danbury know how to enhance those benefits even further through complementary techniques. Cold laser therapy could make all the difference in helping you reclaim your quality of life.
What Is Cold Laser Therapy?
Cold laser therapy, also called low-level laser therapy (LLLT) or photobiomodulation, uses amplified light delivered in a narrow beam to treat a variety of musculoskeletal ailments. Unlike surgical lasers, cold lasers penetrate the skin without burning or cutting.
The laser reaches into underlying tissues in need of treatment. There, it triggers increased cellular production of an energy source called ATP. Cells can then use this extra energy to rebuild and regenerate themselves.
Cold laser therapy also increases circulation in the tissues receiving treatment. This boost brings more oxygen and other healing ingredients to the cells while also helping tissues expel unwanted fluids or inflammatory byproducts. As a result, you experience a reduction in pain, swelling, and inflammation.
How Cold Laser Works With Chiropractic Care
The highly-skilled doctors and therapists at PMR of Danbury use cold laser therapy as a sensible adjunct to chiropractic care. Many of the same conditions that we treat through chiropractic adjustment also respond well to cold laser therapy. Examples include:
- Arthritis
- Tendinitis or bursitis
- Fibromyalgia
- Neck or low-back pain
- Carpal tunnel syndrome
- Nerve damage and chronic neurological symptoms
- Fractures or other acute injuries
- Knee, foot, or other joint pain (including arthritis symptoms)
Research showed that sufferers from facet joint (spinal) pain who received both chiropractic care and cold laser therapy enjoyed a greater degree of improvement than patients who only received one or the other (or no treatment at all).
What to Expect During & After Cold Laser Therapy
Cold laser therapy doesn’t cause any discomfort; the treatment itself usually feels warm and soothing. Each treatment you receive may relieve more of your symptoms, which is why we typically recommend a series of treatments. Many patients experience significant relief right away.
If you live in the Danbury, CT area and struggle with chronic joint pain, arthritis, or pain from an old injury, please reach out to our scheduling coordinator at (203) 744-8013 and schedule an appointment to see if non-surgical cold laser therapy is right for you.

As a hygienist my body kills me by the end of the work week and the only thing I look forward to is coming here to feel myself again. The whole staff is friendly and just awesome at what they do. They just bought a new type of therapy machine called radial pressure wave therapy that I've been getting done the past few weeks. Game changing! It's helped so much with relieving the pain in my trap & shoulder muscles. Veryhighly recommend to anyone dealing with muscle pain!!

I am so grateful that I found PMR in Danbury on my search for a physical therapist near me. I honestly didn’t have faith in physical therapy due to my past horrible experience, but I must say PMR changed that. Everyone in the Danbury office is so friendly and knowledgeable. It’s almost 5 months since I began my physical therapy with Randy, I must say he is great. He is hands on and very attentive. I highly recommend PMR in Danbury.

Highly recommend this place! Everyone is super friendly and knowledgeable and all work well together. I learned a-lot of strengthening exercises to help with my knee pain from a torn meniscus likely. I was able to do alot of these exercises at home and will continue to work on my strength so if I have surgery it will be an easier recovery. If surgery is in the future I will definitely be back to continues with my physical therapy! David was great to work with and made a painful experience fun and now my husband is starting up with Dr Tillman too!Thanks to all! Keep up the good work!

These people are the only reason I can walk right now. After two wrong guesses from my previous doctor a member of there staff here, Dr. Craig Tilden, was able to not only quickly identify the real cause of my pain but actually took the time to run the test and then sit down and explain his reasoning to me. It has since been two weeks and I have seen remarkable improvement. The entire staff has been caring and professional and clearly work well together. I would highly recommend this facility for anyone in the area looking for top notch care.

I started seeing PMR about a year ago. I was in extremely bad back pain. It hurt to walk. My husband had come here and suggested going in to see if I could gain relief.I found out through X-rays completed in the office, I had disc issues. I left crying thinking my back would never feel better.I started seeing PMR twice a week and little by little through their coarse of treatment my back started feeling so much better. I am so grateful for this office and the relief I am feeling.I still come twice a month and always look forward to my appointments. My back always feels amazing when I leave. And I enjoy the benefits regular chiropractic care provides. In addition to a few other things I am doing, this is the first fall I have not suffered from seasonal allergies. I have heard regular adjustments can help.I highly recommend this office. I can’t express how thankful I am for finding an incredible office that provides not only adjustments, but so much more to help with a variety of issues. If you’re looking for a chiropractor, thus is a great office to see.

There is only one way to describe this place; FANTASTIC!The therapists are incredible. The are very knowledgeable and empathetic. I was going to PT for 5 months for what I thought was a minor injury. They stuck by me the entire process and never gave up on me. Now, I’m finally all better.The rest of the staff are also awesome; from the receptionist to the head Dr. Everyone knew me by first name. The staff was always incredibly cheerful and welcoming.I’ve had a knee surgery, two back surgeries, and countless other sports related injuries. I know physical therapy offices because I have been to a lot.These guys are simply the best. Do yourself a favor and go there.

After my ACL repair, I had specific goals to return to normal activities and eventually return to skiing. Dr. Tilden and therapists Laura Unson and Natalia Glenn crafted sessions that were very effective in my recovery. Just as important to me, they constantly emphasized safety during the sessions and in the recommendations for activities between sessions. I have been very satisfied.

I highly recommend Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation of Danbury. I suffer from severe, chronic migraines and decided to reach out to Dr. Tilden for help. I've been seeing Dr. Tilden for a little over a month now and I am so happy with the results. He and his team have helped tremendously with managing my pain. Dr. Tilden and his team work well together and are very compassionate and caring with their patients. Thank you!

HIGHLY RECOMMEND! For background: I have been suffering with plantar fasciitis on and off for years. By February 2020, the pain was unbearable and I started going for PT in late Feb. From the beginning, I felt comfortable with everyone in the office. I was told the recovery was going to take months (they were honest and no sugar coating), and it was important to stick with the treatment and exercises. It is now July , and I can honestly say that I am almost 100% recovered, and feel great. This I attribute to the quality care I received at Danbury Physical Medicine. I feel like I ran the gamut of services, starting with Ultrasound to diagnosis the severity of the condition, to weekly acupuncture, to exercises, heat and cold treatment, and massage. All of these services were performed with care and purpose. I was in such pain that I needed to go through the COVID lockdown. Here is where the office excelled: they were extremely conscious of maintaining a safe and sterile environment. Social distancing and masks and gloves were required. The staff were constantly wiping down equipment. I had no concerns around my health and safety in the office. Scheduling was easy and Deb on the front desk is super friendly and accommodating. If I could give 6 stars I would!

The gang at DPMR have been my life savers!No need for cortisone shots with their awesome traction table!. That medievalDevice is very helpful. The private care rooms are a plus. The masseuse's there remedy my back painAnd put me at ease.They're patient, down to earth, informative and professional. I highly recommend them.

I have been coming to this facility for over 8 years due to injuries from working in a physically demanding and dangerous profession. They have helped me to recover from multiple surgeries with all the modalities offered. The staff is friendly, helpful and more than accommodating. The doctors really care as they spend time listening and problem solving. They have specialists who do acupuncture, trigger point injections, massage, chiropractic, physical therapy, stem and traction. Not to mention ultra sound and x-rays are offered on site.I really can't say enough about the treatment I have recieved, however my loyalty is pushing on a decade so that should speak for it's self. It's been a long journey healing and as I get closer to feeling like myself again, I plan to remain a patient for maintenance care in the years to come.Thank you to everyone at Danbury Physical Medicine for your diligence and dedication to my health.

Car accidents are the worst things!But having a place to go to that helps you recover, physically (and mentally at times when frustrated), I’m so happy with all of my care. From traction on my neck to my adjustments and massages I feel so great when I leave.I’ve come a long way since my accident last November and a I owe it all to Craig and his extraordinary staff. I even have gotten accupuncture there and trigger shots from the MD that is on staff.I can’t say enough positive things.You need healing... this is your place!

What an incredible staff , everyone is so nice and helpful. I was told I would need surgery and after Dr Tilden treated me I felt amazing . The physical therapy dept is also very knowledgeable Dr Mike and Laura worked on my hip replacement and had me walking painfree in no time. I have been with at least a dozen physical therapy offices in the area and none took care of me as well as Danbury PMR and cant forget Dr Joe if your nerves about chiropractic adjustment this man will take all the fears away

The staff at Danbury Physical Medicine are professional, respectful and knowledgeable. They provided me with a comprehensive individualized treatment plan which addressed all of my concerns. Moreover, every aspect of my therapy was explained to me with measurable goals to document progress. Having been to other facilities in the past, none compare to Danbury Physical Medicine. They are the only ones I trust with my care!
