Treatment of Pain and Inflammation
Low level laser therapy (cold laser)
Low-level laser therapy applies light energy to deeper tissues to treat conditions including sprains, strains, neck and back pain, shoulder pain, and Fibromyalgia . It should not be used over the eyes, the site of a known cancer, a developing fetus, a pacemaker or other implanted device, or the thyroid gland. The light can trigger a seizure in people with epilepsy who are photosensitive. People in the room during this therapy, including the patient and health care professionals, should wear appropriate safety eyewear.
