2) UseTherapeutic Lasers as a Hands-on Laser Workshop
Experts will provide hands-on laser therapy demonstrations. Laser light therapy, also known as photobiomodulation, provides a combination of effective treatment for pain and a low-risk profile.
Musculoskeletal pain is the most common reason for physician visits in the United States.

3) Use Technology to Improve Patient Outcomes
The future of health care lies in value-based care. In this session, you’ll learn how to leverage your practice’s existing technology to engage patients throughout their journey with integrated solutions.
New research: Increased Chiropractor Visit Frequency Renders Better Patient Outcomes
Pain can occur from direct damage to nociceptors. It can also be produced indirectly through damage to mechanoreceptors. Chronic pain is often an indicator of a persistent biomechanical failure, which forces nociceptors and mechanoreceptors to fire constantly afferent to the central nervous system.
While chronic neck and low back pain cannot be treated entirely, it is possible to manage it effectively.
Chiropractic care provides a mechanical solution to a biomechanical pathology, offering a better solution when clinically guided.
According to several reports, chiropractic care reduces disability duration by 250% compared to pharmacological care and also reduces pain by half.
Further to this, Herman et al. researched 2024 chiropractic patients in the United States and found that more than one chiropractor visit per week over three months can produce better patient outcomes. The research also found that patients can achieve better functional improvement by adding complementary therapy such as massage.

Three Technologies Transforming Chiropractic Care

New technological improvements in the chiropractic care industry can increase patients’ safety while at the same time according to the best care possible. Safety is a crucial consideration in this field because improper care when manipulating the spine can lead to adverse health consequences.
According to a recent article by ReferralMD, here are a few of the most noteworthy advancements in chiropractic care:
1) INSiGHT Scanning
INSiGHT scanning is a new form of chiropractic technology that scans a person’s entire nervous system within only a few minutes. The technology takes a deeper look into an individual’s spinal nerve connections and establishes the inferences of those connections.
This technology will help chiropractors make the right diagnosis and create a proper treatment plan for the patient’s condition.
2) K-Laser Therapy
K-Laser Therapy lasers use infrared and red light to repair damaged tissues and stimulate affected cells. While K-Laser Therapy is not new to the medical field, chiropractors in Florida can combine laser therapy with chiropractic care to treat several conditions, including sprains, arthritis, tennis elbow, carpal tunnel syndrome, and knee pain.
3) Ultralign
Sigma Instruments is the brand behind the Ultralign X and Ultalign G2. Ultralign is a NASA-inspired chiropractic ‘workstation’ that performs body analysis and then treats the pathology according to the result.
The system is impressive because it can locate any spinal abnormalities in a patient. After diagnosis, the device is switched to treatment mode where it will go ahead with the appropriate chiropractic adjustments without cracking and popping sensations.
