What is Photobiomodulation Therapy (PBM Healing Laser)?
PBM Laser Therapy uses a patented multi-wave high power laser to significantly reduce pain and inflammation, while also promoting soft tissue repair and chronic pain relief. Two wavelengths are used in unison, penetrating the affected area of the body for optimal results.
Each wavelength delivers different results:
-
Wavelength 1: continuous laser at 808 nanometers; reduces inflammation and swelling
-
Wavelength 2: pulsed laser at 905 nanometers; reaches deeper into tissue and nerves for pain relief
An energetic synergy is created when delivering these wavelengths that produces greater anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving effects than either can produce on its own, while minimizing the risk of thermal damage. It is this unique combination and synchronization of continuous and pulsed emissions that characterizes PBM and distinguishes it from other Class IV lasers.
Once absorbed by the body, these specific wavelengths of light promotes a cascade of cellular activity, including: igniting the production of enzymes; stimulating mitochondria and ATP synthesis; increasing vasodilation and lymphatic drainage; and elevating collagen formation substances to prevent the formation of scar tissues.

As a result of exposure to the MLS Laser, the cells of tendons, ligaments and muscles can repair themselves up to 30% faster, getting you back to your normal life quickly and safely.
