COLD LASER THERAPY
HOW COLD LASER WORKS:

When the body has an injury the cells are damaged and fail to function within normal parameters. Low level lasers from the Cold Laser machine penetrate deeply into the skin and work by restoring this abnormal cellular function. Cold Laser uses a non-heat producing light laser, which is locked at a specific wavelength that is optimal for treatment and can penetrate deeply into tissue. Cold Laser or Low Level Laser Therapy is emerging as the therapeutic modality in the healing arts community.

The biological effects of Low Level Laser Therapy have been shown to significantly accelerate and enhance the body's natural defense and repair abilities when injured. By reducing the duration of inflammation as well as enhancing specific repair and healing process, Low Level Laser Therapy has been proven to provide pain relief, reduce damage due to the injury and loss of function. Low Level Laser Therapy enables the body to have a more rapid repair and stronger tissues once healed.  Physiologic effects include improved metabolism, circulation and tissue healing.
Laser therapy may be useful for the following:
  • tendonitis
  • fractures
  • frozen shoulder
  • post-operative wounds
  • sprain-strains 
  • scar tissue
  • autoimmune diseases 
  • chronic or acute pain
  • wound healing
  • arthritis
  • migraines 
  • disc herniations
  • minor nerve damage
  • carpal tunnel syndrome

EXAMPLES OF COLD LASER APPLICATIONS:

PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES: To treat top athletes in order to return them to competition at a much accelerated pace. If you remember, last year, Lance Armstrong and the US Postal Service team were involved in quite a few bad wrecks, yet they were able to race the next day. According to Jeff Spencer, Armstrong's chiropractor who treated him with Cold Laser, if an injured athlete can get in for laser treatment within 2-3 hours of the injury, rehabilitation time can be cut in half.

BURN VICTIMS: To accelerate wound and burn healing, at a rate 25-40% faster and with less scarring. This is an excellent demonstration of external healing reflecting what is happening on the cellular level, where internal healing is often neither seen nor felt.

NERVE AND SPINAL INJURIES: To rehabilitate severed nerve bundles, at a rate of 300% faster than a control group tested in a University of Health and Sciences, Bethesda, MD., (research study conducted by Anders and Broke). This was after only 14 daily, 90 minutes treatments. It suggests promising results will be found in the future for peripheral nerve damage and possible spinal cord injuries.

CANCER: To inhibit cancer cell growth and, at the same time, enhance healthy cell growth. Research at the University of Munich shows that Cold Lasers have a bio-modulation effect. Bio-modulation is the ability to inhibit the activity of overactive cells (inflammation) and stimulate under active cells (atrophy), which distinguishes it from the universal damage caused by chemotherapy or radiation. 

OTHER INJURIES: To increase the range of motion (ROM), to increase muscle strength, to decrease pain and inflammation and to accelerate overall healing time for a variety of injuries. Chiropractors and physical therapists use the cold laser for whiplash-strain-sprain, chronic frozen shoulder, long standing TMJ problems, carpal tunnel syndrome, fibromyalgia, sinusitis, etc.
