Class IV Laser Therapy

WHAT IS CLASS IV LASER THERAPY

Your body is going to experience an immediate sense of pain relief, accelerated healing and decrease in inflammation.
Extremely Safe - patients often feel a mild warming sensation. Safety glasses and all safety considerations are in place before therapy starts.
Hundreds of scientific tests, documents, and studies have been done showing positive results.
Since there is no ionizing radiation, the chances of ever producing a cancer is reduced to the absolute minimum.
Class IV laser only takes a few minutes to get maximum affect. Depending on the severity of the condition, it is suggested that you be treated 2 or 3 times per week for a range of from 4 to 6 weeks for maximum recovery.
Many patients report results after the first visit. Of course everyone’s condition varies, but results are often quickly felt.

THE POWER OF CLASS IV LASER THERAPY

Utilizes an infra-red electro magnetic energy - When the laser light source is placed against your skin, photons penetrate several centimeters down and are absorbed by mitochondria (the energy producing part of a cell).

THE IMPORTANCE OF CELL REGENERATION

Simply put, healing is only possible with the regeneration of cellular energy. Research shows tissues targeted by High Power Laser Therapy are stimulated to increase production of a cellular enzyme that is critical to the production of ATP (the currency of chemical energy in living cells). This is the photo-chemical effect of High Power Laser Therapy.

BIOLOGICAL EFFECTS

Accelerated Tissue Repair and Cell Growth - Cells of cartilage, bone, tendons, ligaments and muscles are repaired faster as a result of exposure to laser light.
Reduced Fibrous Tissue Formation - This point is paramount because fibrous (scar) tissue is less elastic, has poorer circulation, is more pain sensitive, weaker, and much more prone to re-injury.
Anti-Inflammation Effects – Helps to reduce inflammation caused by biomechanical stress, trauma, overuse, or systemic conditions
Analgesia - Suppresses nerve signals that transmit pain to the brain
Improved Vascular Activity - Significantly increases the formation of new capillaries in damaged tissue
Increased Metabolic Activity - Creates higher outputs of specific enzymes
Improved Nerve Function - Accelerates the process of nerve cell regeneration
Stimulates Trigger Points and Acupuncture Points - Stimulates muscle trigger points, restoration of muscular tonus and balance
