Intended purpose
Low-level laser therapy is a non-invasive therapeutic method based on application of coherent, polarized, monochromatic light in a form of laser beam. The laser beam is absorbed in human tissues and its energy is transmitted to the tissue cells to help restore their normal function. The effect is above all bio-stimulating, regenerating, anti-inflammatory and analgesic, based on the induced photochemical reactions. Low-level laser is useful in the therapy of painful disorders of the musculoskeletal system, in the therapy of inflammatory conditions of skin, mucosa and soft-tissue and in accelerated healing of wounds (e.g. burns, scars) and soft-tissue injuries.
