Theralase TLC-2000 Cool Laser Therapy

Advanced Pain Relief. Accelerated Healing.

At our clinic, we are proud to offer Theralase TLC-2000 Cool Laser Therapy – a cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment designed to promote tissue healing, reduce inflammation, and provide long-lasting pain relief.

What is Theralase Cool Laser Therapy?

The TLC-2000 system by Theralase is an FDA and Health Canada approved Class II therapeutic laser that uses advanced Cellular Biostimulation Technology. Unlike traditional lasers that simply treat symptoms, the TLC-2000 targets the root cause of pain by accelerating the body’s natural healing process at the cellular level.

Conditions Treated

Theralase laser therapy is clinically proven to treat a wide range of musculoskeletal and inflammatory conditions, including:

  • Low back pain

  • Sciatica

  • Arthritis and joint pain

  • Sports injuries

  • Tendonitis and bursitis

  • Plantar fasciitis

  • Neck and shoulder pain

  • Carpal tunnel syndrome

  • Soft tissue injuries and more

How It Works

Cellular Pathway Activation

The Theralase TLC-2000 utilizes dual-wavelength, superpulsed laser technology (660 nm visible red and 905 nm near-infrared) to simultaneously activate three key cellular pathways, promoting effective healing and pain relief:

  1. Lipid Absorption Pathway (Pain Elimination)
    The 905 nm laser light interacts with nerve cell membranes, increasing their permeability. This modulation rebalances the sodium-potassium pump, disrupting pain signal transmission and effectively reducing pain at its source.

  2. Nitric Oxide Pathway (Inflammation Reduction)
    Theralase’s 905 nm superpulsed laser technology significantly boosts nitric oxide (NO) production—by over 700%—leading to enhanced vasodilation. This process improves blood flow and decreases inflammation, facilitating faster healing.

  3. Mitochondrial Pathway (Accelerated Healing)
    The 660 nm visible red laser light penetrates tissues to stimulate mitochondrial activity, increasing ATP (adenosine triphosphate) production. Elevated ATP levels energize cells, accelerating tissue repair and regeneration.

Together, these pathways work in synergy to reduce pain, restore function, and enhance the body’s natural ability to heal — without drugs or invasive procedures.

What to Expect

Cool Laser Therapy is completely non-invasive and pain-free. Each session typically lasts approximately 10 -15 minutes, depending on the condition being treated. There is no downtime – patients can return to their daily activities immediately following treatment.

Many patients report noticeable improvement after just a few sessions, with optimal results achieved over a series of treatments tailored to your individual needs.

Harnessing Healing: Cold Laser Therapy at Active Care Health in Kelowna, BC

Active Care Health in Kelowna BC is committed to offering cutting-edge, non-invasive solutions for pain management and tissue healing. Among its advanced therapeutic offerings is Cold Laser Therapy, also known as Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT). This innovative, drug-free approach provides patients with a powerful option for accelerating recovery from a wide variety of acute and chronic conditions.


Understanding Cold Laser Therapy

Cold Laser Therapy is a painless treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate cellular activity. Unlike high-power surgical lasers that generate heat, the “cold” in the name signifies that this technology does not heat the body’s tissues. Instead, the non-thermal photons of light penetrate the skin and are absorbed by the cells’ mitochondria. This process, known as photobiomodulation, triggers a cascade of physiological effects.

The primary benefits of this stimulation include a rapid increase in cell metabolism, improved blood circulation, and the production of a chemical called Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) – the energy currency of the cell. This boost in cellular energy accelerates tissue repair and regeneration. Patients undergoing Cold Laser Treatment often report a significant reduction in pain, decreased inflammation, and faster healing times.


The Application of Cold Laser Treatment in Kelowna BC

The Cold Laser Treatment offered at Active Care Health in Kelowna BC is highly versatile and integrated into personalized care plans. The clinic’s experienced practitioners utilize this technology to address numerous issues that typically respond well to improved cellular healing. Common conditions treated with Cold Laser Therapy include:

  • Acute Injuries: Sprains, strains, ligament tears, and post-surgical recovery.
  • Chronic Pain: Arthritis, bursitis, tendonitis (such as tennis elbow or Achilles tendonitis), and chronic back or neck pain.
  • Neurological Conditions: Sciatica, carpal tunnel syndrome, and certain types of nerve pain.
  • Inflammatory Issues: Plantar fasciitis, joint swelling, and complex regional pain syndrome.

A significant advantage of Cold Laser Treatment is its non-invasive nature and the absence of side effects typically associated with medication or surgery. The treatment sessions are quick, lasting anywhere from a few minutes to twenty minutes, and are completely comfortable for the patient. Many individuals report feeling a soothing warmth or nothing at all during the application of the laser device.
