Accelerated relief from chronic and acute foot pain using advanced laser therapy by Solomon
Whether you’re an athlete sidelined by injury, someone dealing with long-term inflammation, or simply suffering from nagging foot or ankle discomfort, chronic pain can wear down your quality of life. At Solomon Aesthetic Podiatry, Dr. Nathan S. Solomon offers non-invasive, drug-free laser pain treatment to help patients in Beverly Hills recover faster and live more comfortably.
This cutting-edge solution harnesses the power of light energy to stimulate tissue repair, reduce inflammation, and relieve pain at the source—all without incisions or medication. It’s especially effective for treating pain in the foot, ankle, heel, and lower leg.
Laser pain therapy, also known as low-level laser therapy (LLLT) or photobiomodulation, uses specific wavelengths of light to target inflamed, damaged, or painful tissue. When applied properly, the light energy is absorbed by the body’s cells, triggering a chain reaction of natural healing responses:
This process results in faster recovery, less pain, and greater mobility, with no downtime and no side effects. Unlike pharmaceuticals, which temporarily mask symptoms, laser therapy supports the body’s ability to heal itself at the cellular level.
Laser therapy can be used to treat a wide range of foot and ankle issues, both chronic and acute. It’s especially effective for conditions that involve inflammation, soft tissue injury, nerve pain, or post-surgical healing.
Many of these conditions are caused or worsened by poor biomechanics, improper footwear, or long hours spent standing or walking. Laser therapy can help reduce pain, improve function, and enhance mobility without altering your lifestyle or routine.
We use class IV therapeutic lasers, which deliver a focused beam of red and near-infrared light into the skin and soft tissues. These wavelengths are absorbed by mitochondria inside your cells, where they boost energy production and trigger the body’s own anti-inflammatory and regenerative pathways.
Laser therapy also reduces pain by stimulating natural endorphin release and blocking pain signals at the nerve level. The result? Fast, lasting relief without pills, injections, or surgery.
Dr. Solomon will review your medical history, perform a physical exam, and determine whether laser therapy is appropriate for your specific diagnosis. He may combine laser with other treatments for optimal results.
Treatment time: 10–20 minutes per area, depending on size and severity.
You can resume normal activities immediately afterward. There’s no downtime or restrictions, making it an ideal lunchtime treatment.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
Pain relief is often noticeable after the first or second treatment, but full healing may take multiple sessions depending on the condition.
Dr. Solomon will create a plan tailored to your goals, lifestyle, and response to therapy.
Some patients, particularly those with long-standing injuries or systemic inflammation, may benefit from longer treatment regimens that build cumulative effects over time.
Laser therapy is a great option for:
It’s safe for most individuals, including those with pacemakers or metal implants. However, it’s not recommended over areas with active cancer, pregnancy over the abdomen, or in cases of photosensitivity disorders.
| Treatment Option | Invasiveness | Recovery Time | Risk of Side Effects | Cost | Frequency |
| Laser Therapy | None | None | Very low | $$ | Short treatment series |
| Physical Therapy | None | None | Low | $$$ | Ongoing |
| Cortisone Injections | Moderate | 1–2 days | Moderate | $$ | Repeat every 3–6 months |
| Oral Pain Medications | None | None | Moderate to high | $ | Daily use |
| Surgery | High | Weeks–months | High | $$$$ | One-time (high risk) |
Laser therapy is versatile and can be used as a primary treatment, a supplement to other modalities, or a pre/post-surgical aid. It’s also ideal for people who are trying to delay surgery or reduce their reliance on pain medications.
