Light can heal injuries and reduce pain. The use of laser and low level laser therapy (LLLT) for tissue regeneration, wounds and injuries, osteoarthritis and even depression is extremely effective. The reduction of inflammation is equal or even better than painkillers and anti-inflammatory tablets. Additionally, the treatment only takes a few minutes and can be applied two or more times a week.
How does it work?
The absorption of light increases metabolism in cells and reduces inflammatory markers, which then stimulates tissue regeneration and autoimmune response.
Clinical benefits
• Regeneration of skin, muscle, tendon, ligament, bone (laser, LLLT)
• Analgesia, osteoarthritis (laser)
• Oedema (laser, LLLT)
• Nerve regeneration (LLLT)
• Glaucoma (LLLT)
Treatment is best directly after an injury, before and after surgery to improve the healing process, and then at regular intervals until the problem is resolved, and there are no side effects.
