The therapy is considered to be non-invasive, painless, and safe.
Cold Lasers have been used internationally for over three decades. In all this time there have been no long term side-effects from its use. There are over 2,500 published papers and 120 randomized, controlled trials that speak to the effectiveness of this therapy. Both NASA and the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency have engaged in phototherapy research over the last decade, with noteworthy success. Many rehabilitation facilities, hospitals, and clinics have used cold lasers for years. Olympic Athletes and Professional Sports Players use cold lasers to get them pain free and back in the game quicker.
The lasers used in our office are MedX and ML830. These lasers are FDA cleared and are considered the most recognized and respected cold lasers in the scientific community.
“The FDA cleared ML830 Laser is the most clinically effective laser available today.”
Dr.Chadwick Smith, M.D., Professor of Orthopedics, U.S.C.
“The ML830 has solid scientific research proving its efficiency.” Dr. Luis Rios Jr. M.D.
The question is often asked “Aren’t lasers used in surgical operations, to cut through tissue?” The answer is “YES”. Hot lasers are able to cauterize (cut) tissue. However, the lasers we use in our office are “Cold Lasers” with design parameters that make it impossible to damage even one cell in the body. Our lasers stimulate, heal and repair cells NOT damage them. |
