Laser Therapy
Laser therapy is a painless, sterile, non-invasive, drug-free treatment which is used to treat a variety of pain syndromes, injuries, wounds, fractures, neurological conditions and pathologies. Laser therapy can be used anytime a patient requestor needs a drugless procedure for the control of pain, when conventional therapies have been ineffective or when the acceleration of healing from injuries is desired.
Effects Of Laser Therapy
With each Laser treatment, the power and energy from the laser help to increase biologic circulation. This causes an increase by absorbing more H20, 02, and specified nutrients to areas of damage and inflammation. By doing this, a therapeutic heating zone is established that in turn helps to reduce painful inflammation, spasm of contributing muscles, swelling and associated areas of pain. Because of the laser emission; these mentioned modalities help injured tissues and areas to return to a more homeostatic normalization.

The Effect Of Laser Therapy On Cellular Morphology
Our Class IV therapeutic laser, with four distinct wavelengths, interacts at the cellular level. This interaction increases the metabolic actions inside of the cell as well as affecting the cell membrane which thus allows for the increased flow of nutrients. Because of this increased transport, ATP is excited with interaction through the cytochrome oxidate system.
This continued procession of expanded reactions thus continues the process of healing and pain reduction.
How Does Laser Light Heal?
Laser supply energy to the body in the form of photons of light. Light is transmitted through the skin layers at all wavelengths in the visible range, However, light wave in the near infrared ranges penetrate the deepest of all light waves in the visible spectrum. When laser light waves penetrates deeply into the skin, they OPTIMIZE the immune responses of our cells. This has both anti-inflammatory & immune stimulative effects.
It is a scientific fact that light transmitted in this way has positive effects throughout the whole body, supply vital oxygen to every cell & tissue.
What Should I Expect During Treatment?
For most patients, Laser therapy is quite passive. The most noticeable sensation is the touch of the probe head of the lasers, as it comes in contact with the skin. As our Laser us classified as a Class 4 or Cold Laser it serves to protect cells & tissues with no thermal effect.
