Low Level Laser Therapy is a technological marvel in both the alternative and mainstream health professions. We utilize hand-held, low level laser equipment produced by Erchonia, FDA approved for therapeutic use.

What is a Laser? LASER is an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. A laser is basically a focused beam of light. When this light is focused properly, all the photons are traveling in the same direction and at the same wavelength; this is known as coherent light.

As documented throughout his book, "Energy Medicine: The Scientific Basis", by James L. Oschman, cells communicate to one another with coherent (laser) light. According to a 1987 American Chiropractic article, Russian researchers determined that DNA replication emits light at approximately 630 NM. Our Healing Light Low Level Laser runs at a wavelength of 635 NM.

Example of biological effects that occur in this range are:

• DNA replication is optimized
• Regeneration of damaged nerve tissue
• Cellular bio-modulation occurs
• Oxygenation and phagocytosis activity are optimized

Studies show that just by using the low level lasers alone, pain was significantly reduced and range of motion were increased in patients with chronic neck and shoulder pain. We also have found that myofacial release and muscle lengthening can be assisted by exposure to low level laser light.
