Pain Management
FAQ
WHAT IS CHRONIC PAIN?
Chronic pain is any pain that lasts for more than a three month period. The pain can become progressively worse or reoccur for an extended period of time that goes beyond the standard healing process. Chronic pain can affect both men and women and is often related to low back pain, sport injuries, or arthritic pain. This type of pain can cause a signi cant decrease in quality of life, both physically and emotionally, as one is limited in their ability to fully function.
WHO IS THIS TREATMENT FOR?
Pain management treatment is an excellent and succesful treatment for athletes, or clients suffering from day to day discomfort.
HOW DOES A PAIN MANAGEMENT WORK?
At Vancouver Medi Spa we use deep heating as an immediate analgesic effect. It reduces inflammation, increases flexibility & mobility and speeds up the healing process. The wave of heat from the laser penetrates the areas of inflammation and allows the inflamed tissue to be reduced, in which case pain decreases and in most cases heals the areas of injury. Fotona’s advanced technology provides an alternative method to treat and manage pain effectively without the common risks of typical methods like pain medication. While pain medications often lead to addiction and dependency, a Fotona laser treatment is a natural and effective way to reduce or eliminate chronic pain. This treatment is speci cally bene cial to those suffering from bromyalgia, arthritis and sports related injuries. Both men and women suffering from chronic pain can bene t from this treatment.
By applying targeted heat into the muscle tissues and skin, the tissues are loosened allowing the lymphatic uid to ow easier. With easier ow
of the lymphatic uid, swelling is reduced which releases tension and pain in the targeted area. The heat also stimulates a healing process through photobiomodulation and the creation of connective tissues to strengthen the area experiencing pain. The Fotona laser has special settings that allow the technician to penetrate heat deeper and more effectively compared to other lasers.
HOW LONG DOES THIS TREATMENT TAKE?
A typical treatment of one area is approx. 15 minutes and a series of 10 treatments, 2 times per week is the protocol for most conditions affecting the back, knee, shoulder, face, feet and chest.
IS THIS TREATMENT PAINFUL?
The treatment is painless with only a warm sensation felt and no downtime afterwards. You can go back to your daily activities immediately after your treatment.
EXPECTED RESULTS
Each person is different but during the treatment, you can expect minimal to mild discomfort. Patients can expect some improvement in as little as 1 treatment, but should complete a course of 6-8 treatments, with two treatments per week for optimal results. Most patients can resume their daily activities immediately following the treatment.

Hi Paul, Thank you so much for your glowing review. We can't wait to welcome you back to the spa very soon! Have an amazing day! Best, Vancouver Medi SpaPosted on Michelle PhaneufTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Kam is a very professional and educated technician. Kam knows exactly how to mould the skin to make you look years younger. You can tell that the years of honing her craft has paid off with the vast knowledge she has and how she loves to pass it all onto her clients. Kam is very focused and knows how to get results in a reasonable amount of time. By listening to exactly what I wanted, Kam has made a huge difference in just a few treatments of my nasal labial fold tightening and lip remodelling. I would highly recommend to all my friends and family. She truly cares about the results that you get and adjusts where needed. 5 stars!

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! We know trying laser hair removal for the first time can feel a little nerve-wracking, so we’re thrilled to hear Kam helped make you feel comfortable and confident throughout the process. We can’t wait to see you again for your next treatment! Best, Vancouver Medi SpaPosted on HWTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Have been going on a monthly basis as I drop my pounds rapidly. You can see lots of improvement. Today did lips, hair roots, drainage, skin tightening and you can see the lines are reduced immediately. Kam said my face will tighten more after a few days. I started to laser my hair roots last year and the results is thicker and fuller hair 😁 Highly recommend Kam. She is so patient and put in good work. I usually go there and let her decide what I need to do. Totally trust her ❤️

WoW Wow Enjoy ! Keep Up the good work ! You Allowed these immediate effects, with the combination of both we achieved todays results, Amazing! Good Job keep me posted in this journeyPosted on Kaitlyn HTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Found this medispa online and was curious about the hotsculpting as well as cavitation for some body contouring of my abdomen as this area does not go with exercise and diet on me. Kam put my mind at ease with her thorough knowledge of lymphatics and gave me a quality list of before and aftercare to get the results I was after. It's been two months now and I am so happy with the results! The hotscultping is 360 and totally customizable and it is great value compared to coolsculpting and other clinics' pricing. I am going to have her contour my arms, neck and maybe treat myself to some treatments for my face and neck before summertime. I am a small business owner so I love supporting women in business and I was not disappointed at the care I received.. She's 100% invested in getting you the results you want. I'll be back! Thanks Kam see you soon.
