Laser Therapy

What is Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) or Cold Laser?
LLLT (Low level laser therapy) or Cold Laser Therapy is a new non-thermal light therapy treatment for treatment of pain and inflammation associated with soft tissue injuries both acute and chronic soft tissue disorders, wounds and other pathologies.

Why The ML830?
The ML830 by Micolight Corporation is a non-thermal laser which uses 830 nanomerter wavelengths which have been shown to penetrate up to 5 cm in depth. This is more than double the penetration of other lasers and this allows the light energy or photobiostimulation to reach many tendons, ligaments and deep muscle tissue.

How Does the ML830 Work?
Non-thermal light energy or photobiostimulation will produce an increase in cellular metabolism rate that expedites cell repair, stimulates the immune, lymphatic and vascular system. Clinical observation has produced a reduction in pain, inflammation, and edema and improved healing time.

What Type of Ailment Responds to the ML830?
Many injuries of muscle, joint, tendon and nerve pain can successfully be treated, such as:

• Arthritis
• Bursitis/Tendonitis
• Neck/Back Pain
• Post-Operative Pain
• TMJ Pain
• Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
• Sprains/Strains
• Tennis Elbow
• And more...

Treatments?
The ML830 can be used alone or in combination with a well structured treatment program of activity modification and exercise. Improvement can be experienced after one treatment; most conditions that respond to treatment take between 2 to 9 treatments for noticeable alleviation of symptoms. Chronic conditions may require more treatment.

How Much Does if Cost?
With a physician's referral, most of the cost of physical and occupational therapy are covered in each treatment by most insurance companies. In most cases, the cost of each treatment is close to one's co-pay.
