Is
it right for you?
Therapeutic Laser Therapy is conducted in a comfortable outpatient clinic
setting, and requires no unusual equipment or precautions except that safety
glasses are recommended for the patient and doctor.
Therapeutic Laser Therapy is simple and painless. It is similar to holding a
flashlight close to the skin and shining the light on it. The laser probe is
held against the area being treated and the doctor will apply light to firm
pressure to the area to improve the penetration of the energy.
The Therapeutic Laser is applied for a specified period of time to deliver the
proper amount of laser energy depending upon the condition being treated.
Treatment times vary based upon size of the area to be treated, and the output
power of the laser. Most treatments take 1-10 minutes.
Normally, multiple treatments are needed to resolve chronic conditions and
injuries. Therapeutic Laser can be directed to acupuncture points, trigger
points, nerve endings and directly to the specific injury. Recent findings
conclude that, with few exceptions, patients do better when treatment begins as
quickly as possible.
About
Therapeutic Laser Therapy
Therapeutic Laser Therapy is a physical modality that emits photons (light) in
very specific regions of the electro-magnetic spectrum.
Therapeutic Laser Therapy is the most researched and published modality in
physical medicine. Scientific studies have demonstrated a multitude of clinical
benefits that include relieving pain from minor muscular and joint aches, pain
and stiffness associated with arthritis, relaxing muscle spasms and increasing
local blood circulation.
Therapeutic Laser Therapy is an FDA cleared procedure. Research to develop this
procedure was conducted by prominent physicians, chiropractors, physical
therapists, dermatologists, dentists, and veterinarians.
Therapeutic Laser Therapy has been used internationally by doctors, hospitals
and clinics since the early 1970's.
Therapeutic Laser Therapy is an approved procedure that is covered by most
insurance companies.
Benefits of Therapeutic Laser Therapy
Rapid cell growth. Laser accelerates cellular reproduction and growth.
Faster wound healing. Laser stimulates fibroblast development in damaged
tissue. The reproduction in recovery time is an important consideration.
Increased metabolic activity. Higher outputs of specific enzymes, greater
oxygen and food particle loads to blood cells, more effective immune responses
are induced by laser light.
Reduced fibrous tissue information. Laser improves the quality of scar tissue
following tissue damage from cuts, scratches, burns, or following surgery.
Anti-flammatory action. Laser reduces swelling caused by bruising or
inflammation of joints to give improved joint mobility.
Increased vascular activity. Laser stimulates lymph and blood circulation, to
allow the affected tissue to have the best possible circulation.
Stimulated nerve function. Slow recovery of nerve function in damaged tissue
can result in "dead" limbs or numb areas. Laser helps speed the
process of nerve cell reconnection to bring the numb areas back to life. Laser
also increases the amplitude of action potentials to optimize muscle action.
The laser light stimulates the release of the body's own pain killing chemicals
such as endorphins and enkephalins from the brain, adrenal glands, and other
areas, thus facilitating long lasting pain relief.
