About Laser Therapy

Here you can find more about what Laser Therapy is and why it is such an integral part the healing process. Laser Therapy combines

Medical technology with the use of state-of-the-art laser machines, and the holistic natural side of boosting the bodies natural recovery

process!

WHAT IS LASER THERAPY?

Widely available across Europe and America, Deep Tissue Laser
Therapy (DTL) or clinically known as Photobiomodulation, is a pain
free, non-invasive treatment that uses clinically tested wavelengths
of light to stimulate the cells within the soft tissue damage.
This interaction triggers a biological series of events that leads to an
increase in cellular metabolism and a decrease in both pain and
inflammation.
Like plants absorbing sunlight through photosynthesis, cells in the
body absorb laser energy that stimulate the body to release pain
relieving compounds, increasing circulation and energizes the cells to
participate in the healing process.

Deep Tissue Laser Therapy is used to treat acute and chronic
conditions as well as post-surgery recovery. It is particularly effective
when it is administered as soon as possible following injury
(assuming there is no active haemorrhaging). The faster the
inflammation in the soft tissue is reduced, the faster the healing
process can begin, the better the outcome.
In the case of acute injury, DTL Therapy helps restore the body to
normal functions quicker. With chronic conditions, DTL Therapy is
used most often to help combat persistent pain and inflammation.
As a non-drug solution, laser therapy quickly reduces inflammation
and pain without the side effects of medication and downtime of
surgery.

IS LASER SAFE?

This evidence based and scientifically proven modality has been
alleviating pain associated with inflammation for over 20 years in the
USA and Europe and as Australia is a bit slow to catch on, it’s been
here in Australia for around 5 years.
Cleared by both the TGA (Therapeutic Goods Administration) and the
FDA in America, Class IV Lasers have become a safe, reliable modality
that allows patients (including pets) alternative to prescription drugs,
injections and surgical procedures for pain relief.

WHY IS LASER THERAPY EFFECTIVE?

  • Laser therapy is unique because it is the only modality that can relieve pain, reduce inflammation and accelerate healing at the cellular level
  • Laser therapy does not mask the pain
  • Laser therapy is designed to reduce or eliminate the pain at the source
  • TGA cleared and endorsed by the WHO.
