Low Intensity Laser Therapy
Low Intensity Laser Therapy (LILT) technology utilizes light and laser
diodes to assist in healing of diseased or traumatized tissue with
photons. The process is curative and therefore results in the
elimination of symptoms including pain. In addition, it enhances the
body’s immune system response and facilitates natural healing. The
therapy is completely safe and has no adverse side effects.

The physiological effects of LILT include:

Increases in:

Collagen production – increases tensile strength of muscles, tendons and ligaments
ATP (adenosine triphosphate) – the fuel of the cell required in facilitating cell metabolism
Endorphins – morphine like substances produced by the body to reduce the sensation of pain

Stimulation of:
immune response

lymphatic drainage (reduction in edema

angiogenesis – formation of new capillaries and arterioles

resulting in improved circulation / tissue oxygenation

How long does a treatment take?
Treatments are typically thirty minutes to one hour in duration

depending on the condition being treated

How many treatments are required?
The number of treatments will depend on the ailment and symptoms involved.

Based on the genetic makeup of the cells, an individual’s response to

Low Intensity Laser Therapy will vary to some degree.

A recent clinical review, including 1,000 consecutively treated patients, reveals

the average number of treatments to be 9.4.

Are there any side effects?
Unlike most pharmaceutical solutions and other therapeutic options,

laser therapy is non-toxic, non-invasive and in over one million individual

treatments, no significant adverse effects have been noted.
