Cold Laser
South West Health Professional Center of Costa Mesa uses #1 cold laser in Europe
Cold laser therapy, or low level laser therapy, is a treatment in which a cold laser is used to treat acute and chronic pain. It is also called a "soft laser." All light has an effect on the cells of the human body. What that effect is shall be determined by the wavelengths of light applied. The cold laser produces a beam of light that has a specific wavelength and frequency. When the light of the Laser is applied around a joint the electromagnetic energy is converted to chemical energy within each cell which sets in motion a chain of chemical reactions allowing the healing process to begin.
Biostimulation = more oxygen = more circulation= more healing potential = laser light exposure at certain wavelengths near 800 nm stimulate cellular mitochondria (the energy generators) of our cells, to produce more ATP.
More ATP = more energy = more healing
Hemoglobin, our red blood cell pigment absorbs light best at about 800nm wavelength and the most effective "biostimulation" wavelength has been found to be 632-808nm for human tissue.
Conditions Treated
If you suffer from back pain, joint pain, tendonitis, bursitis, fibromyalgia, migraine headaches, neck pain, or other related health conditions, cold laser therapy might be a viable solution for you.
