High-Level Laser Therapy (Class IV Laser)

High-level laser therapy, also known as Class IV laser therapy, is an FDA-cleared, non-invasive treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light to reduce inflammation, relieve pain, and stimulate tissue repair at the cellular level.

What Can This Laser Do for Me?

Accelerate healing! The K-Laser CUBE can drive more therapeutic infrared healing light to more tissue types than any other therapeutic laser on the market today. What sets it apart from other laser units are the four different infrared wavelengths it operates on. The different K-Laser wavelengths activate various tissue types and possesses incredible power to drive the healing infrared light beam into the deep tissues (muscles, ligaments, nerves, tendons, bones, skin, fascia). How many treatments a person might need to heal completely is predicated by what tissue is injured, the extent of injury, and any other co-existing conditions such as degeneration and presence of scar tissue. Our most common applications are acute or chronic pain in the spine including degenerative disc disease, arthritis, and herniated disc.

Is This Holistic Pain Management?

It is! This laser brings relief by accelerating the rate at which oxygen is exchanged with starved tissues. When tissues are sufficiently oxygenated, the flow of pain producing chemicals is interrupted and the delicate nerves are spared the damage and destruction that allows acute pain to become chronic pain. Holistic pain management also includes embracing the latest advances in scientific nutrition at it pertains to diet and supplementation. Briefly stated, the K-Laser accelerates healing. In our clinical experience, it can cut recovery time in half and in other cases, it was the only reason recovery was able to have occurred! In addition to the areas listed above, we’ve also used it postoperatively to hasten the healing process on the spine and other commonly operated joint regions. The K-Laser is a key component to the integrated approach we use to address the complex problems people are facing, without the side effects of drugs.

My Pain Has Gone Down!

My name is Tess K. Several years ago, I was in an automobile accident and suffered a spinal cord injury at C5-6. I am now a permanently wheelchair bound quadriplegic. My limited arm use and lack of head and neck movement rotation have generated extreme pain in my upper trapezius muscles. Previously, I tried massages, heat and/or ice packs, OTC topical pain medications, prescription medicine, as well as steroid shots. Nothing touched the pain. Over the years, the pain increased to the point where I was unable to sleep more than two hours at a time. It was so unbearable that I would find myself holding my breath because it hurt just to breathe. After three treatments with the K-Laser, I found I could breathe without pain. I could sleep more than four hours in a row, and my overall pain decreased by 50%. By six sessions, the doctor began to include my lower spine in the treatment for better blood flow/circulation as well as chronic lower back pain. I can now tolerate sitting in my wheelchair for up to 8 hours without having to take pain medication, and I found that my bowels work the night of laser and the night after! For a quadriplegic, this alone is a marvelous phenomenon. Before I began the laser treatments, my pain was 10 on 10. After two sessions my pain was down to a 7 on 10 and now, on its worst day, my pain is 5 on 10. I can’t recommend it enough!

It Changed My Life!

A couple of years ago, I was told by a surgeon that my shoulder was devoid of cartilage due to an injury that I suffered more than 60 years ago. I’ve had several rounds of steroid injections that eventually became ineffective. At 80 years old, the idea of major shoulder surgery wasn’t an option. A friend referred me to Tinlin Chiropractic regarding laser treatments. I was in constant, excruciating pain, so I scheduled a consultation. I felt improvement almost immediately and after 3-4 weeks of treatment with the K-Laser, I regained use of my arm and maintained proper functionality of it. The K- Laser has been a miraculous tool to me. This device has changed my life, and I am sure that it can help countless others. Thank you!

I have been with Dr. Tinlin for about seven years now. I came to him when my back was in a terrible condition, so bad it hurt to bend over to put socks and shoes on. Dr Tinlin took the time to not only address the issue I had at that moment, but learn the stresses that I put my body under as part of my occupation and give me preventative techniques to mitigate further issues! I now see Dr. Tinlin once a month for maintenance adjustments. If I need to schedule an appointment between the maintenance appointments, he is extremely accommodating, and it is very easy to utilize his online portal. My experience with Dr. Tinlin has extended my ability to continue my occupation without pain and suffering due to the nature of my job. I have referred multiple family members, friends, and fellow employees to Dr. Tinlin for the services that he can provide and the personal nature that he offers.

I have been seeing Dr. Tinlin now for several years. What I appreciate most about him is his attention to detail and willingness to listen. I underwent major back surgery almost twenty years ago and I’ve never found anyone who cares more about the wellbeing of his patients. I would and have recommended Dr. Tinlin to friends and family because of the level of care he provides is second to none.

I have been going to Dr. Tinlin for about 5 years now. I had daily neck pains and headaches that would hurt all day. He helped me with adjustments every other month for a few years. Over time, with his adjustments and recommendations, I no longer have those daily pains. He has helped me with comfort in my daily life. Since then, I go every 3 months for an adjustment. Always professional and actually listens to your problems and gets them fixed! I’m a younger guy (27), but back, neck, shoulder, etc. pain can get anyone! Almost my entire family now goes to Dr. Tinlin for adjustments. Definitely recommend setting up an appointment for the first patient assessment. He will help you out!!

I’ve been going to Dr. Tinlin for years! He is exceptional. I’ve had back issues for as long as I can remember and I’ve tried multiple chiros in the area, but he was the only one who ever really took time to learn the nuances of my issues, hear me out, understand causes, and develop plans for improvement. When I have flare ups, he is attuned to the situation and knows how to navigate without me explaining. He’s also recommended natural remedies, supplements, and other practitioners for other health areas, too. He takes a holistic approach to chiropractic health, not just a simple crack and a paycheck. I’d recommend him over and over!

I can’t say enough great things about Tinlin Chiropractic. After my car accident, I was in pain, overwhelmed, and unsure if I’d ever feel like myself again. From the very beginning, their team listened carefully, created a personalized treatment plan, and supported me every step of the way. What truly sets them apart is their consistent follow-up and genuine care. They didn’t just treat my injuries, Dr. Tinlin stayed engaged in my progress, made adjustments when needed, and encouraged me to focus on long-term health. Because of their expertise and commitment, I not only recovered, but I was able to return to an active lifestyle and complete my first marathon something that felt impossible after my accident. I’m incredibly grateful for their knowledge, encouragement, and dedication to helping patients thrive. If you’re looking for a chiropractic team that truly cares and delivers real results, I highly recommend them.

I have been under the care of Dr Tinlin for over ten years now. He takes care of the whole patient and always stays on top of advancements that may help them. The scheduling process is easy and I can usually get in very quickly. There is plenty of parking at the building and the office is conveniently located to major expressways. I have only had positive experiences, and highly recommend his practice.

Dr. Tinlin is an excellent chiropractor—attentive, patient, and genuinely invested in your recovery. My back pain had reached a point where it was seriously affecting my quality of life, and his care made a big difference. He took the time to listen and tailor treatment to what I needed. Thanks to him, I’m back to doing the things I love, including playing pickleball again. I’m very grateful and highly recommend Dr. Tinlin.
