About Lumbar Arthrosis at Plano Clinic
Lumbar arthrosis involves degenerative changes in the lower spine joints that can cause chronic back pain and stiffness. Musculoskeletal pain is the number one reason for missed work or school days. Drawing on photodynamic therapy research into joint disorders and pain relief, Plano Clinic provides physician-supervised lumbar arthrosis pathways.
- Assessment of lumbar pain, stiffness, and activity limitations
- Evidence-informed non-invasive approaches for spinal joint comfort
- Care supervised by Canadian physicians with long-term function in mind
Photodynamic therapy (PDT), previously known as low-level laser therapy, uses visible and near-infrared light (450–1100 nm) to trigger photochemical changes within cells. It has been studied clinically for more than 50 years as a non-invasive option for pain relief and inflammatory conditions.
Every treatment we offer — including Lumbar Arthrosis — is backed by scientific research and our expert Canadian doctors.
