Cold Laser (also known as Low Level Laser Therapy) is the application of red and near infra-red light over injuries or lesions to improve healing and provide relief for both acute and chronic pain. It is used to:
Increase the speed, quality and tensile strength of tissue repair
Resolve inflamation
Provide pain relief
How does Low Level Laser Therapy Work?
The intensity of LLLT lasers is not high like a surgical laser and has no heating effect. The effect is photochemical, similar to photosynthesis in plants. LLLT aids in the production of ATP thereby providing cells with more energy. As a result, the cells are in optimum condition to speed up the healing process and return to a normalized state. The treatment is painless, non-toxic, non-invasive, non-thermal, and very safe when administered by a trained practitioner.
