Cold Laser Therapy

Cold Laser Therapy:

Cold laser therapy, also known as low level laser therapy or Photobiomodulation, is used to stimulate blood circulation and tissue repair. Laser light penetrates deep into the skin/tissue layers and stimulates cellular energy and metabolic processes which in turn promotes healing and tissue regeneration. It also stimulates the release of natural, pain killing chemicals within the body facilitating long lasting pain relief.

Frequency of Treatment:

The frequency of cold laser administration varies depending on the condition. Cold laser therapy can be used for many conditions including:

osteoarthritis
hip dysplasia
intervertebral disc disease

post operative treatment for ACL repairs
soft tissue injuries
spondylosis
