Red Light & Laser Therapy in West Des Moines
Heal faster. Reduce pain. Move better.
If you’re dealing with pain, inflammation, or slow recovery, red light and laser therapy offers a non-invasive way to help your body heal naturally—without medication or downtime.
At Ashworth Chiropractic, we use Kineon’s Move+ device to support recovery by:
This therapy is ideal whether you’re recovering from an injury, managing chronic pain, or looking to optimize how your body moves and feels.
How It Works
Red and near-infrared wavelengths pass through the skin and stimulate your cells’ mitochondria—the powerhouses responsible for energy production and tissue repair.
This process, known as photobiomodulation, helps:
Red light and laser therapy works best when used consistently, allowing benefits to build over time for longer-lasting results.
Our Technology: Kineon Move+ & Relief+
We use medical-grade, wearable Kineon Move+ and Relief+ devices—technology trusted by clinicians and professional athletes worldwide—to deliver consistent, targeted light therapy exactly where your body needs it most.
Unlike generic red light devices, these units are designed for precision and performance, combining:
This dual-wavelength approach allows light energy to reach muscles, joints, ligaments, and soft tissue more effectively—supporting the body’s natural repair processes at multiple depths.
Why the Technology Matters
The design of the Kineon system allows for localized, consistent delivery, which plays a key role in outcomes such as:
- Reduced pain and inflammation
- Faster recovery from injury or surgery
- Improved joint mobility and flexibility
- Enhanced healing of soft tissue and ligaments
Because the devices are non-invasive, drug-free, and safe for daily use, they can be incorporated into both short-term recovery plans and longer-term wellness strategies.
Consistency & Expected Results
Results from red light and laser therapy are cumulative—most patients begin noticing improvements within days.
For best outcomes, we typically recommend:
- Acute injuries: twice-daily use for 1–3 weeks
- Chronic conditions: consistent use over 3–6 weeks
Even with less frequent in-office use, many patients experience meaningful results—especially when therapy is integrated into 2–3 weekly treatment plans that may include chiropractic care, massage therapy, or acupuncture.
