The Cold Laser:  The Most Versatile HealthcareTool of the 21st Century

The cold laser has been called “The Therapy” of the 21st century.  In over 1700 publications, there have been no recorded negative side-effects.  This versatile tool is totally safe, non-toxic, and easy use.  In around thirty years of using the cold laser, it has become one of the most versatile conjunctive tools we have ever used.  It has potent synergistic effects with nutritional therapies.  It is both doctor and patient friendly.

This promising tool is called the cold laser, the soft laser, the low-power laser; or the low level laser.  The term laser is an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emissions of Radiation.  All lasers emit coherent, focused light that travels in a narrow beam in one direction.


• High Power, “hot” lasers have shorter wavelengths, which have catabolic effects that can deliberately destroy tissue in cauterizing and surgical applications

• Low Power, “soft”, “cool”, or “cold” lasers have longer wavelengths that have anabolic effects that promote rapid reduction of pain, accelerate healing time, and accelerate growth and repair

Cold lasers have stimulative effects rather than destructive ones.  It may be the perfect conjunctive tool for chiropractic treatments and myofascial release.   Clinical applications of the cold laser have included acute and chronic pain reduction from many etiologies, inflammation reduction, enhanced tissue healing, and cell regeneration.  The results have shown very rapid pain reduction and accelerated recovery times, far exceeding conventional methods.

Erchonia Laser Treatment:
Decrease pain and inflammation and increase range of motion

Dr. Silverman has added the Erchonia Laser PL5000 to his line of advance sports medicine modalities in his quest to be the most advanced sports medicine practitioner in the Westchester County.

Dr. Jeff Spencer, who is the Sports Chiropractor for the US Postal cycling team, and Lance Armstrong, uses the PL5000 laser. Lance has said that he credits most of his success to Dr. Spencer and the Laser. The Laser is used to enhance tissue recovery, effective in accelerating healing for burns and wounds, and significantly advance/speed up injury healing time.  Low Level Laser Therapy promotes healing in many conditions, including chronic/acute pain, and other joint and neurological conditions.  

Erchonia's lasers made history by becoming the first to receive FDA market clearance for the treatment of chronic pain, proven through two double blind IRB studies.  The Erchonia Lasers are the most advanced lasers on the market, with their sleek revolutionary design, patented line generated beam, and the ability to program independent frequencies in all of their family of lasers.

Low Level Laser Therapy has been successfully used to treat many conditions such as acute and chronic pain reduction, repetitive use disorders like carpal tunnel syndrome, soft tissue strains and sprains, inflammation reduction, enhanced tissue wound healing, and cell regeneration.
