Description

Laser therapy in physiotherapy, also known as low-level laser therapy (LLLT) or photobiomodulation, is a non-invasive medical treatment that employs low-intensity laser or light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to stimulate tissue repair and reduce pain and inflammation. During laser therapy, specific wavelengths of light are applied to the injured or affected areas of the body, which can penetrate the skin and interact with cells at a cellular level. This interaction can promote healing, reduce swelling, and alleviate pain in conditions such as musculoskeletal injuries, arthritis, and various forms of chronic pain. Laser therapy is considered a safe and often complementary approach within physiotherapy for accelerating the body's natural healing processes. It's used to address a range of conditions and can help patients regain mobility and function more effectively.
