Cold Laser Therapy
There have been numerous scientific studies and are many research articles that discuss different aspects of Low Laser Light Therapy (LLLT), each with their own unique perspective, however the simple answer is through photonic absorption, laser light energy converts into chemical energy which initiates a cascade of events at a cellular level
- LLLT promotes healing in many conditions because it penetrates the skin, increases the ATP and activates enzymes in the targeted cells.
- Growth factor response within the cells and tissue as a result of increased ATP and protein synthesis.
- Improved cell proliferation
- Pain relief as a result of increased endorphin release.
-
Strengthening the immune system response via increasing
levels of lymphocyte activity.
The Mechanisms of Low Level Laser Therapy
Although it is not very well understood many theories have been postulated about the mechanism of action for low level lasers. Much research has been done in the areas of pain management, wound healing, and nerve regeneration, but little is known about the exact mechanism of action and the physiological changes occurring at the cellular level. In the literature, the three most often encountered theories are: Bioluminescence theory, Cellular oscillation theory, and Biological field theory.
