During Laser Therapy, the infrared laser light intereacts with the tissues at the cellular level, and metabolic activity increases within the cell, improving the transport of nutrients across the cell membrane.
This initiates the release of nitric oxide that leads to a cascade of beneficial effects, increasing cellular function and health.
Laser Therapy, or "photobiomodulation," is the use of specific wavelengths of light (red and near-infrared) to create therapeutic effects. These effects include improved healing time, pain reduction, increased circulation, and decreased swelling.
Laser Therapy has been widely utilized in Eurpoe by phyisical therapists, nurses, and doctors as far back as the 1970's. Now, after FDA clearance in 2002, Laser Therapy is being used extensively in the United States.
