Cold laser therapy is an FDA-approved treatment that uses low levels of light to stimulate healing.
According to the more than 4000 studies on pub.med.gov, it can be concluded that the majority of laboratory and clinical studies have demonstrated that LLLT has a positive effect on acute and chronic musculoskeletal pain.Jun 9, 2015
The molecular and cellular mechanisms of LLLT suggest that photons are absorbed by the mitochondria. They stimulate more ATP production and low levels of ROS, which then activates transcription factors, such as NF-?B, to induce many gene transcript products responsible for the beneficial effects of LLLT.
The skin absorbs these photons via a photo-chemical effect, not photo-thermal; therefore, cold laser therapy does not cause heat damage to the tissues.Aug 27, 2021
