About Muscle Strains at Plano Clinic

Muscle strains are among the most common musculoskeletal injuries and a frequent cause of missed activity. Photodynamic therapy uses visible and near-infrared light to support photochemical changes linked to tissue recovery and pain relief. At Plano Clinic, muscle strain care is non-invasive, evidence-aligned, and physician-supervised.

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 Muscle Strains — is backed by scientific research and our expert Canadian doctors.
