What Is…
FDA-approved and safe, that is also, non-invasive, and a drug–free way to improve your health; and- the treatment is only 3-5 minutes and is also safe for animals?
Answer: Cold Laser – “light therapy”, aka Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT).
Does it work? A resounding: YES
How does it work- basics?
The light from the laser is directed into a target area so that it can project deep into the cells. These light/photons stimulate the cell to produce energy which is called ATP-Adenosine 5’ –triphosphate. ATP is the principal molecule in the cell for storing and transferring energy within the cell. When this occurs, the result is better communication and regeneration within the cells. You feel nothing… during treatment. The results follow.
Types of Lasers?
There are HOT Lasers and there are COLD Lasers.
The difference is that HOT Lasers are used in surgery and are excellent for “Surgical Precision.”
Cold Laser is a ‘light-photochemical’ that does not burn the skin.
COLD LASERS are used for “Healing Precision.”
What is it good for? I usually answer, about almost anything… especially if you are suffering from pain; inflammation, or joint swelling, or you want to accelerate recovery and healing.
And- there are NO Negative side effects.
FDA has cleared Cold Laser to treat conditions such as neck, shoulder, and low back pain, as well as planter fasciitis (heel pain).
Cold Laser is also safe for the following but are not limited:
| Acute – Chronic Pain | Migraine Headaches |
| Arthritis | Muscle-Joint Pain |
| Athletic injuries | Post Operative Recovery |
| Back Pain | Scarring conditions |
| Bursitis | Soft Tissue Injuries |
| Carpal Tunnel Syndrome | Sprains – Strains |
| Fibromyalgia | Tendonitis |
| Golfers Elbow | Tennis Elbow |
| Inflammatory conditions | TMJ |
| Ligament Sprains | Wound Healing |
12 Common Sense Reasons WHY Cold Laser Makes Good Sense:
- Reduces pain
- Non-Toxic
- Easy to use
- Non-Invasive
- Cost Effective
- Extremely Safe
- Reduces the need for surgery
- Highly Effective (>90%)
- Works synergistically with other modalities (chiropractic, therapeutic exercises
- No Adverse Side-effects. No Skin-Tissue-Muscle Damage/No Recovery Time
- Treats the ROOT Cause, not the Symptoms
- Safer than Pain Meds like NSAIDs. Opioids and other medication
Try it… you have nothing to lose and everything to gain!
