Dr. Jeremy

A native of the northwest growing up in Renton Washington. During high school I participated in sports including wrestling, track, and cross country. Following high school I attended several local colleges while studying general undergraduate classes. I completed the 4 year program in 3 years by attending school year round. During my studies in college I focused my attention to injury rehabilitation and treatment of traumatic injuries. In 2006 I opened my own clinic; Pure Chiropractic Center in Bellevue Washington. Since opening we have continued to strive to be on the cutting edge of treatment and have added new technologies such as Cold Laser and Decompression in addition to the Chiropractic and Massage therapy that we offer.

What is Cold Laser Therapy?

Laser Therapy, or “photobiomodulation”, is the use of specific wavelengths of light (red and near-infrared) to create therapeutic effects. These effects include improved healing time, pain reduction, increased circulation and decreased swelling. Laser Therapy has been widely utilized in Europe by physical therapists, nurses and doctors as far back as the 1970’s. Now, after FDA clearance in 2002, Laser Therapy is being used extensively in the United States.

Why Laser Therapy Instead
of other treatments?

Cellular Effects of Laser Therapy occur when photons of therapeutic laser light interact with cells. Higher adenosine tri-phosphate (ATP) levels are produced, cell membrane permeability is increased, and blood and lymphatic vessels are vasodilated. These events then lead to a cascade of beneficial effects increasing cellular energy and health.
