Laser therapy is a non-invasive technique to help reduce pain and inflammation. Laser therapy can be safely used as an adjunct or replacement for pharmaceutical drugs. This pain relief treatment is FDA cleared and enables patients to have an alternative to drugs and surgery. Laser therapy is used immediately after surgery to increase the ADP in the mitochondria of the cells. This is the energy or healing ability of the cell which in turn speeds up the healing process. Laser therapy increases blood flow to the area. This also promotes healing especially to muscles and connective tissue. Lastly, laser reduces lactic acid build up so the muscles can transfer the energy in the cell to ADP. This is how our body naturally heals. The laser therapy is using light to speed the process. This is similar to photosynthesis in plants.
Laser therapy treatments last between 5 and 10 minutes depending on the condition being treated. Laser therapy treatments must be administered directly to skin, as laser light cannot penetrate through layers of clothing. You will feel a soothing warmth as the therapy is administered.
"Depending on the condition being treated your therapy may be administered through either a contact or non-contact hand piece. The contact hand piece is designed to allow the practitioner to physically manipulate the tissue while administering the treatment, resulting in a laser-massage treatment. This allows for light to penetrate deeper into tissues than the non-contact hand piece due to it’s ability to displace tissue through a laser-massage technique. Patients generally see results after 3 to 5 treatments. Your doctor will develop a treatment plan that is optimal for your condition." ~ Lightforce Therapy Lasers
