Low Level Laser Therapy​

Low-Level Laser Therapy

Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is the application of red and near infrared light over injuries or lesions to improve wound and soft tissue healing, reduce inflammation and give relief to both acute and chronic pain. The effects of LLLT are photochemical (like photosynthesis in plants) . When the correct intensity and treatment times are used, red and near infrared light reduces oxidative stress and increases ATP (energy) production. This improves cell metabolism and reduces inflammation.

LLLT is often used for soft tissue injuries, joint conditions, neuropathic pain, non-healing leg and pressure ulcers. There is a great deal of research literature which has confirmed its beneficial effects. A meta-analysis of 16 randomized controlled trials of LLLT for neck pain published in The Lancet indicated it is beneficial for reducing pain immediately in acute injury and treatment for chronic pain is effective up to 22 weeks after treatment.
