Laser Therapy

Low light laser therapy is one of the major advances in pain therapy in recent years. By reducing inflammation, it speeds up the body’s own ability to heal naturally. This cutting edge technology is relaxing, painless and safe for all ages.

This increase in energy enables the body’s cells to metabolize at a higher rate and speeds its natural ability to heal. In short, the body converts the laser light into a form of energy that it can use (biochemical energy) to repair itself and function at a higher efficiency level. This process is similar to the human body using the sun’s energy to manufacture Vitamin D.

Low level laser therapy traces its history back to the early 1960’s when researchers discovered that laser light could stimulate a response at the cellular level of tissues in the body, resulting in increased energy levels (ATP, adenosine triphosphate). Laser therapy works by converting light into biochemical energy resulting in natural cell function which causes symptoms (PAIN) to disappear and allows natural healing to begin.This process is similar to the human body using the sun’s energy to manufacture Vitamin D.
