Benefits of Laser Therapy

Various clinical research studies have proven benefits for your body:

Anti-Inflammatory and Analgesic Effects

Laser treatment has anti-inflammatory effects as it activates your body's lymphatic drainage system. This results in the reduction of inflammation. The decrease in inflammation leads to a reduction of pain. It also stimulates the high production of chemicals in the brain and from adrenal glands, killing pain as endorphins do.

Relieve Musculoskeletal Pain

Laser therapy is effective for musculoskeletal pain. It works for your skeletal as well as muscular pains and issues.

Faster Healing of Wounds

Laser light therapy stimulates the production of fibroblasts within the damaged tissues. This helps in the replacement of old tissues and repairing of damaged tissues.

Increase in Vascular Activity

The affected tissues take in laser light, which promotes new capillaries formation. This promotes healing, wound recovery, and scar tissue reduction at a much faster speed.

Improved Function of Nerves

Numbness and impairment of limbs can happen due to a slow process of nerve functions recovery. Through laser therapy, the reconnection of nerve cells is stimulated, which leads to optimized muscle action.

Acceleration of Tissue Repair and Growth of Cells

The light emitted from the laser penetrates deep inside the tissues and accelerates the production of cells. It enhances the availability of energy to the cells, which enables the cells to pick nutrients and eliminate waste products at a faster rate. This results in quick healing of soft tissues.
