K-Laser Therapy

 

Manage Pain. Reduce Inflammation. Speed Recovery.

What is Laser Therapy?
 

Laser Therapy is the use of specific wavelengths of light (red and near-infrared) to stimulate the body’s natural ability to heal.  The effects of laser energy include improved healing time, pain reduction, increased circulation and decreased swelling.

During K-Laser Therapy, infrared laser light interacts with tissues at the cellular level increasing metabolic activity within the cell. By improving the transport of nutrients across the cell membrane, the increased production of cellular energy (ATP) is stimulated. The cascade of beneficial effects that follows includes increased cellular function and tissue repair.
