Low-Level Laser Therapy

Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) or cold laser, is a painless, sterile, non-invasive, drug-free modality that is used for a variety of conditions such as acute and chronic pain, body-contouring, acne and appearance of cellulite. Laser radiation of cells causes reduced inflammation.

LLLT offers a new clinically proven treatment option that is safe, effective and cleared by the FDA.

Therapeutic Laser Biological Effects:

  • Rapid Cell Growth — Laser light accelerates cellular reproduction and growth.
  • Faster Wound Healing — Laser light stimulates fibroblast development and accelerates collagen synthesis in damaged tissue.
  • Increased Metabolic Activity — Higher outputs of specific enzymes, greater oxygen and food particle loads for blood cells and thus greater production of the basic food source for cells, Adenosine Tri-Phosphate (ATP).
  • Reduced Fibrous Tissue Formation — Laser light reduces the formation of scar tissue following tissue damage from cuts, scratches, burns or post surgery.
  • Anti-Inflammatory Action — Laser light reduces swelling caused by bruising or inflammation of joints to give enhanced joint mobility.
  • Increased Vascular Activity — Laser light induces temporary vasodilation increasing blood flow to damaged areas.
  • Stimulated Nerve Function — Slow recovery of nerve function in damaged tissue can result in “dead” limbs or numb areas. Laser light speeds the process of nerve cell reconnection to bring the numb areas back to life

For over 20 years, clinicians found that laser therapy treats a variety of conditions including:

  • Acute and Chronic Pain
  • Post Concussion Syndrome
  • Muscle/Ligament Strain
  • Arthritis
  • Back Pain
  • Bursitis
  • Carpal Tunnel
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Ligament Sprains
  • Muscle Strain
  • Soft Tissue Injuries
  • Tendonitis/Bursitis
  • Tennis Elbow
