Low Level Laser Therapy
Low Level Laser Therapy is a modern, non-invasive treatment offered at Foot Foundation to help reduce pain, calm inflammation, and support tissue healing in a wide range of foot and ankle conditions. This advanced technology uses specific wavelengths of low-level laser light to stimulate the body’s natural repair processes without heat, needles, or downtime.
How Cold Laser Therapy Works
Cold laser therapy (also known as Low-Level Laser Therapy – LLLT) delivers targeted light energy into injured or painful tissues. At a cellular level, this light supports mitochondrial activity, improves local circulation, reduces inflammatory markers, and encourages tissue repair. The result is improved pain modulation and faster recovery without damaging surrounding structures.
Conditions We Commonly Treat
Cold laser therapy may be incorporated into treatment plans for:
Plantar fasciitis and heel pain
Achilles and other tendon injuries
Forefoot pain and metatarsalgia
Ligament strains and soft tissue injuries
Arthritic foot and ankle pain
Nerve-related pain
Post-injury and post-procedure recovery
Key Benefits
Non-invasive and pain-free
No injections or medication required
No recovery downtime
Targets inflammation and healing at a cellular level
Can be safely combined with rehabilitation and hands-on treatment
Treatment Frequency & Location
For best results, cold laser therapy is typically recommended twice per week for three weeks, depending on your condition and clinical assessment.
What to Expect
Treatment sessions are quick and comfortable, usually lasting only a few minutes per area. The laser is applied directly over the affected region, with most patients feeling little to no sensation during treatment. You can return to normal activities immediately afterward.
Is Cold Laser Therapy Right for You?
Cold laser therapy can be effective for both acute and chronic foot and ankle conditions. Our clinicians will assess your injury, goals, and overall biomechanics to determine whether this treatment is appropriate for you.
Part of an Integrated Treatment Approach
At Foot Foundation, cold laser therapy is used as part of a comprehensive, evidence-based care plan. It is commonly combined with biomechanical assessment, rehabilitation exercises, footwear advice, orthotic therapy, and podiatry or physiotherapy treatment—ensuring long-term results rather than short-term symptom relief.
