The laser has been effective in helping to relieve acute and chronic pain and to enhance tissue healing. Laser light is capable of producing distinct physiologic effects on tissue. The low energy laser system has been clinically utilized to stimulate wound healing, treat inflammatory conditions and to obtain analgesic effects.
When the laser is applied to key points on the surface of the skin, muscle tension can be released and circulation of blood can be increased. Stimulating these points triggers the release of endorphins, which are the neurochemicals that relieve pain. With the release of this chemical comes relief from the pain and reduced inflammation, which increases the blood and oxygen flow to the affected area.
Besides relieving pain, the laser can help re-balance the body through the meridians by dissolving tensions and stresses that keep it from functioning smoothly and that inhibit the immune system.
