How does LLLT work?
Low levels of light are aimed at the target area, where the patient is experiencing pain or discomfort. Low level laser therapy are also known as “Cold Laser Therapy” and therefore do not burn or heat up the skin. Instead, the light energy is absorbed by the mitochondria in your cells, stimulating ATP, which is the primary energy carrier in our bodies that is responsible for driving many processes in our system. As a result, this process may help to reduce symptoms of pain, promote faster healing time and reduce your immune response.
