Is Class IV Laser Therapy Safe for Seniors with Herniated Discs?

Class IV laser therapy is generally considered safe for seniors with herniated discs. However, it's important to consult with a healthcare provider before starting any new treatment. Here are some considerations for seniors considering class IV laser therapy for herniated discs:

• Medications: Seniors who are taking medications may need to adjust their dosage or stop taking them before starting laser therapy.
• Medical History: Seniors with certain medical conditions, such as cancer or diabetes, may not be good candidates for laser therapy.
• Sensitivity: Some seniors may be more sensitive to the laser's heat, so the provider will adjust the treatment accordingly.
