Laser treatment, also called phototherapy or low-level laser therapy, uses low power laser light on injuries to speed up healing and reduce pain. This method is more effective for pain relief than other treatments like ultrasound, especially for chronic issues and early stages of acute injuries. Low-level laser therapy is non-invasive and drug-free.
How Does Laser Therapy Work?
Laser therapy uses specific wavelengths of light to penetrate the skin and reach damaged tissues. This light energy stimulates the cells to repair and regenerate faster, reducing inflammation, relieving pain, and promoting healing. The therapy is subtle yet highly effective in speeding up the recovery process and reducing muscle spasms and pain
