Treatment Overview

Laser Treatment for Pain Management

Find lasting relief from chronic pain with non-invasive medical laser therapy at Trucare Aesthetics in Winnipeg, home to Canada's first approved pain management handheld laser.

Chronic pain is defined as pain persisting beyond the standard healing period, typically more than three months. It can be progressive, recurring, and profoundly limiting, affecting a person’s ability to work, exercise, sleep, and maintain relationships.

Laser pain management at Trucare Aesthetics uses photobiomodulation (PBM). This process involves laser light energy penetrating the tissue to stimulate cellular energy production (ATP synthesis), reduce oxidative stress, decrease inflammatory mediators, and promote tissue repair and regeneration.

The MarcCo device is a handheld, Health Canada-approved tool that delivers therapeutic laser energy precisely to the target tissue. Treatments are comfortable, non-invasive, and suitable for clients seeking an alternative or complement to conventional pain management approaches.

Frequently Asked Questions

By applying targeted heat into the muscle tissues and skin, the tissues are loosened allowing the lymphatic fluid to flow easier. With easier flow of the lymphatic fluid, 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.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had laser nail treatments with Jess and had such a great experience from start to finish. Jess was so friendly, kind and completely non-judgmental. She made me feel comfortable right away and honestly made the whole experience so easy.

The treatments worked very well. My nails are looking so much better and I’m really happy with the results.

I would absolutely recommend Jess to anyone considering this treatment. She’s wonderful at what she does and just a genuinely lovely person.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I got filler here this past Monday and let me tell you, I’m SO happy with everything! Mandy, Jess and team make you feel so relaxed and comfortable! This was my first time getting filler and I honestly had no idea what to expect. Mandy walked me through the entire consultation and treatment and let me take a peak at every stage. She also told me what to expect pain wise during the procedure! The clinic is very clean, professional and welcoming! Will definitely be back in the future! 💖

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 5 stars for Mandy Desousa and her expertise!

I’m writing this three weeks post-treatment, and the results have settled perfectly as expected. Finding a clinic and RN can be trusted long-term is not easy, and I feel lucky to have found both. Mandy’s botox injection technique is outstanding, I had zero bruising after treatment, which is a clear testament to her precision and experience. Most importantly, her aesthetic vision aligns with mine where we prioritizes a natural, balanced look over anything stiff or overdone. Also, she provides excellent guidance throughout the process and truly knows how to achieve subtle, high-quality results.
