Shoulder Pain Treatment with Soft Laser
Our shoulders are already under a lot of pressure today. This is accompanied by physical signs and symptoms. When shoulder pain has a negative effect on sleep, it is indicative of the need to pay greater attention to this important body part. Rotator cuff syndrome, minor strains and muscle injuries, joint wear and tear, and even, in my case, specific surgical interventions are all problems for which there is an alternative solution to painkiller medications.
In my case, I started using the Safe Laser device to accelerate the healing of surgical sites and to dissolve inflamed muscle knots surrounding the shoulder blade. After the first few uses, the laser treatment triggered a more intense body response in me than, for example, the Bioptron lamp. However, I must add that in my case, massage was also necessary to ensure complete elimination of inflammation in the muscle knots and trigger points.
The utilisation of a soft laser device in conjunction with the JK9 massage ball with control cord, resulted in a substantial enhancement of the range of motion of the operated shoulder, accompanied by a notable reduction in pain. The most efficacious solution was found to be the prior application of massage to the muscles surrounding the shoulder blade and the shoulder region with the massage ball with control cord. I did this both sitting and standing, leaning against the wall. The use of the control cord was essential in ensuring the stability of the massage ball and preventing it from falling to the ground, thus enabling precise and consistent pressure application..
I massaged and pressed the back, shoulder blade and shoulder area on one side for only 10-15 minutes. After that, I switched to using the soft laser by adjusting the lamp to the most painful points that I had previously detected with the massage ball. The absence of a stand for the laser did not present a significant challenge, as the lamp could be adjusted to the desired height on the back of the sofa.
Prior to undergoing laser treatment, it is recommended to apply gentle massage to the affected areas using a massage ball. This is due to the potential side effect of drowsiness associated with the laser treatment. Following the treatment, it is recommended to rest for a while or even to sleep.
The massage ball with control cord is available on Amazon.
