Laser therapy works well for a variety of conditions. This particular laser's uniquely combined wavelengths expand the therapeutic value of the laser for the reduction of inflammation, pain and - to a degree - scar tissue. It successfully increases local blood flow to reduce muscle spasms and joint stiffness.
The FDA has recently cleared this new laser technology for use on patients precisely because it was found to be effective, safe, economical, and, more importantly, offers hope as well as results for millions of people.
The benefits are easily catalogued. Most conditions start to show signs of improvement in just a few visits. There are no harmful side effects like those associated with pain medications or surgery. Laser therapy is a safe, pain free treatment that only takes a few minutes per visit.
The K-Laser, in particular, is a dual Infrared diode laser that is applied directly on the skin. Trigger points or muscle spasms areas are stimulated.
Acute problems may be cured with treatments at closely spaced time intervals. Chronic disorders are generally best dealt with by treatments spread further apart.
It has been shown that close-in-time treatments are more efficient at the beginning (every two days or every three days for two weeks) and then at increasingly longer intervals (e.g. once a week for several weeks). Experience shows that suspending the treatment temporarily after a certain number of introductory sessions does not cause any problems. On the contrary, in some cases this can be beneficial.
