iCare Medical Group • Pain & Recovery

Class IV & Cold Laser Therapy

Laser therapy offers a gentle, non-invasive way to reduce pain, quiet inflammation, and support the body’s natural healing processes. With little to no downtime, treatment is designed to fit seamlessly into daily life rather than interrupt it.

At iCare, we individualize each plan using K-Laser (Class IV) and Bioflex (Cold Laser), guided by your symptoms, history, and goals. Laser therapy is often integrated into a broader care approach that may include Eastern medicine techniques and myofascial release, creating a balanced path toward steadier movement, comfort, and recovery.

Class IV & Cold Laser Technology

At iCare Medical Group, pain care is never one-size-fits-all. We offer a thoughtful range of complementary, evidence-based therapies designed to reduce discomfort, restore function, and support healing at its source.

Two of the advanced technologies we use are K-Laser (Class IV Laser) and Bioflex (Cold Laser). Both therapies deliver focused light energy into targeted tissues, helping stimulate cellular repair, improve circulation, and calm inflammatory pathways. Over time, this process can ease pain, support nerve health, and promote more resilient tissue recovery.

Laser therapy is often especially helpful for musculoskeletal pain, joint stiffness, soft tissue injuries, and neuropathic symptoms. Treatments are non-invasive and typically involve little to no downtime, allowing healing to unfold without disrupting daily life.

Because every body tells a different story, we take time to understand yours. Your care plan may combine laser therapy with time-honored Eastern medicine techniques and modern myofascial release, creating a balanced and responsive approach to pain management.
