Acute or short-term pain is commonly caused through injury. Athletes are especially prone to injuries, including
- Sprains
- Muscle and ligament tears
- Dislocations
- Inflammation
Low Intensity Laser Therapy acts to reduce the inflammation surrounding damaged soft tissue and relieve the debilitating associated pain. Many professional athletes are supporters of low level laser therapy to treat sports related injuries and post-performance recovery.
The laser works at the cellular level to increase blood circulation and accelerate healing, reduce inflammation and relieve pain. It targets the site of pain directly. Reducing the pain and inflammation of an injury can mean faster healing and recovery.
