Introducing the Excalibur IV Cold Laser
LASER stands for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation.
Cold laser is the common term for Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) device.
Low level laser therapy causes certain photochemical reactions to occur to help control pain, reduce inflammation, and accelerate healing of damaged tissue. LLLT treats a variety of conditions including arthritis, tendon and ligament problems, nerve root irritation, shoulder and back pain, repetitive strain injuries, TMJ, plantar fascitis, burns, wounds, and a variety of other skin conditions.
Therapeutic lasers have been in use since 1965. These low-level lasers do not cut or destroy, but bio-stimulate the tissue, creating a therapeutic effect. The laser supplies energy to the body in the form of non-thermal photons (bundles of light). The body then absorbs this energy on a cellular level, and transforms it into chemical energy, which the body uses to accelerate the normal healing rate of tissue for a wide range of conditions.
While some patients get immediate results, others usually require three to six treatments before they notice a lasting effect. Each patient will respond differently according to his or her own body’s natural healing rate. Treatment frequency varies from daily for the first three visits, followed by two to three times per week, to maintain your cells in bio-stimulation. |
