Laser Therapy

What is K-Laser Therapy?

Laser Therapy is the use of specific wavelengths of light (red and near-infrared) to stimulate the bodies natural ability to heal. The effects of laser energy include improved healing time, pain reduction, increased circulation and decreased swelling.

A class IV laser that works to speed up healing by increasing local blood circulation and cell metabolism, and getting rid of inflammatory waste products.

Technologyeutic Effects

During each painless treatment, laser energy increases circulation, drawing water, oxygen, and nutrients to the damaged area.

This creates an optimal healing environment that reduces inflammation, swelling, muscle spasms, stiffness, and pain. As the injured area returns to normal, function is restored and pain is relieved.

Cellular Effects

During K-Laser Therapy, infrared laser light interacts with tissues at the cellular level increasing metabolic activity within the cell. By improving the transport of nutrients across the cell membrane, the increased production of cellular energy (ATP) is stimulated. The cascade of beneficial effects that follows includes increased cellular function and tissue repair.

Studies show Laser Therapy helps reduce pain associated with these common conditions:

Drug Free, Surgery Free, Pain Free

K-Laser Class IV therapeutic lasers deliver specific red and near-infrared wavelengths of laser light to induce a photochemical reaction and therapeutic effect. Physiological effects include increased circulation, reduced inflammation, pain reduction and enhanced tissue healing. Laser therapy has been used in Europe since the 1970s and was cleared by the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2005.

Technology is changing the way we work, the way we play, and the way we interact. It’s also changing the way we heal.

K-Laser Therapy emits red and near-infrared wavelengths directly targets the cells that are already trying to heal your body’s aches and pains. By enhancing the way your body heals itself, K-Laser treatment is a non-pharmaceutical method of quickly and effectively recovering from an injury, the stress of daily activity, or simply because of the natural ageing process.

HOW IT WORKS:

K-Laser technology targets specific areas where you’ve been experiencing pain and works to encourage a quicker conversion of oxygen into cellular energy, while quickly removing waste such as lactic acid and carbon dioxide from the cells. To do this, the laser increases blood flow to the area in order for the cells to quickly receive more oxygen.

Trusted by professional athletes and teams such as the New York Yankees, K-Laser technology is capable of quickly healing bruises, contusions, tendonitis, and providing relief to overused muscles. By promoting quick healing, you can get back on the field and back into training without missing a beat — and without exacerbating your injury.

The effects of K-Laser therapy have been touted in numerous studies and journals, and we’ve seen success treating a wide range of musculoskeletal injuries such as:

• Muscle Pain
• Carpal Tunnel
• Tendonitis
• Sprains and Strains
• Tennis/Golfer’s elbow
• Arthritis
• Bruises
• Burns & Shingles
• Deep Edema
• Post-Traumatic Injury

Effective to quickly relieve soft tissue damage, the K-Laser, in combination with orthotics treatment, can also completely relieve your plantar fasciitis.
