About Synovitis & Capsulitis at Plano Clinic

Synovitis and capsulitis involve inflammation of the joint lining or capsule and can cause stiffness, swelling, and pain. Photodynamic therapy has been studied across inflammatory conditions and arthritis-related pain for decades. Our clinic provides evidence-informed, physician-supervised care for these joint conditions.

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 Synovitis & Capsulitis — is backed by scientific research and our expert Canadian doctors.
