Cold Laser Therapy
Cold laser therapy is effective in treating:
- Surgical and traumatic wounds and lesions
- Mobility issues caused by muscle strain, fractures, joint disease and injuries to tendons or ligaments
- Arthritis
- Nerve damage
Protons within the laser beam aid healing by increasing cellular function to help with better absorption of nutrients and improved cell reproduction. Cold laser therapy works by:
- Reducing inflammation of soft tissue
- Increasing blood flow
- Releasing fluid build-up in body tissue (edema)
- Easing pain
- Decreasing bacteria
Depending on the medical situation, a series of applications, spaced over days or weeks, is usually recommended for full treatment.
