Laser Therapy for Chronic Pain
Laser therapy, also known as Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) or Photobiomodulation (PBM), is a non-invasive treatment option that uses specific wavelengths of light to target areas of the body suffering from chronic pain. The therapy works by penetrating the skin and stimulating cells to promote healing, reduce inflammation, and increase blood flow. It has been used for decades in various medical fields, including pain management, sports medicine, and rehabilitation.
How Does Laser Therapy Work?
Laser therapy utilizes low-intensity lasers or light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to deliver light energy to affected tissues. This energy is absorbed by the cells, triggering biochemical processes that can help repair damaged tissues, reduce inflammation, and alleviate pain. The light energy stimulates the mitochondria within cells, which boosts the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the energy source for cellular functions. This process helps to accelerate tissue repair and promotes the body’s natural healing mechanisms.
