Laser therapy for neck pain: comparing different doses
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests whether different doses of high-power laser therapy can relieve neck pain that isn't caused by a specific injury. It's for people with moderate to severe neck pain that limits movement, and who are willing to avoid pain medications during the study.
