Laser therapy delivers specific red and near infrared wavelengths of laser light to induce a therapeutic effect within the body. Laser therapy has been used in Europe since the 1970s and was cleared by the United States FDA in 2002. It has become the preferred choice for thousands of practitioners world wide.
During laser therapy, the infrared laser light interacts with tissues at the cellular level and metabolic activity increases within the cell, improving the transport of nutrients across the cell membrane. This initiates the increased production of cellular energy (ATP) that leads to a cascade of beneficial effects, increasing cellular function and health.
During each painless treatment, laser energy increases circulation, drawing water, oxygen and nutrients to the damaged area. This creates an optimal healing environment that reduces inflammation, swelling, muscle spasms, stiffness, and pain. As the injured area returns to normal, function is restored and pain is relieved.
Class IV Laser Therapy is researched and proven to bio-stimulate tissue repair and growth. Class IV laser therapy by Summus Medical Laser accelerates the healing process by decreasing inflammation and pain. In the management of chronic and acute pain, Class IV laser therapy can provide dramatic results.
