Cold laser therapy is a non-invasive, FDA-cleared treatment that uses low-level light energy to reduce inflammation, relieve pain, and stimulate healing at the cellular level. At Triangle Spinal Decompression in Cary, NC, this powerful treatment helped me avoid spine surgery—and reclaim my life.
A Long Year of Pain and Frustration
My journey started like many others: with a small "tweak" in my lower back. It worsened into months of stabbing, radiating pain that spread down my leg. Medications, rest, stretching, and even steroid injections provided only short-term relief. When my MRI revealed a bulging disc pressing on a nerve, I thought surgery was inevitable.
That’s when I found Triangle Spinal Decompression.
A New Option: Cold Laser Therapy
During my initial consultation, Dr. Swank explained a non-surgical care plan that included spinal decompression, rehab exercises, and something new to me—cold laser therapy.
This treatment uses targeted light energy to trigger healing deep in the tissues. It’s painless, drug-free, and scientifically backed.

What Cold Laser Therapy Felt Like
Each session took just 10–15 minutes. The handheld laser device delivered low-level light to my lower back, and while I didn’t feel much during the treatment, the results were clear. After just a few sessions, my leg pain began to fade, and I started sleeping better. Eventually, I could walk longer, stand straighter, and even play with my kids again.
