What is Low Intensity Laser Therapy?
Low Intensity Laser Therapy (LILT) is the use of monochromatic light emission from a low intensity laser diode (250 mW or less) or an array of high intensity super-luminous diodes (providing total optical power in the 10 to 2000 mW range) to treat musculoskeletal injuries, chronic and degenerative conditions and to heal wounds. The light source is placed in direct contact with the damaged tissue allowing the photon energy to penetrate to various levels. Interaction with the cells occurs resulting in the restoration of normal cell function and the enhancement of your body’s natural healing process.

The light source is placed in contact with the damaged tissue allowing the photon energy to penetrate to various levels. Interaction with certain intracellular micromolecules occurs resulting in the restoration of normal cell morphology, function and the enhancement of the body’s natural healing processes.
Low Intensity Laser Therapy utilizes a light source placed in contact with the skin allowing photon energy to interact with damaged cells to normalize cellular components and enhance the body’s natural healing processes. The effects of low intensity laser therapy include reduction of pain conditions and improved functioning. By affecting and reversing the offending pathology at the cellular level, laser therapy optimizes the restoration of injured tissues to function normally, thereby alleviating the symptom of pain. The beneficial effects of laser therapy are cumulative over the course of a series of treatments.
Laser therapy is the use of monochromatic light emmission from a low intensity laser diode to treat musculoskeletal injuries, chronic and degenerative conditions and to heal wounds. It interacts with various intracellular bio molecules resulting in the restoration of normal cell function and enhancement of the body’s healing process. Light in its various forms has been used for healing from the time of the ancient Egyptian and Greek civilizations. With recent advances in the engineering of devices and the development of appropriate protocols for effective therapeutic application, dramatic benefits and treatment of many complex medical conditions are achievable.
Laser therapy is the use of monochromatic light emission from a low intensity laser diode (250 milliwatts or less) or an array of high intensity super luminous diodes (providing total optical power in the 1000-2000 milliwatt range). Conditions treated include musculoskeletal injuries, chronic and degenerative conditions and wounds. The light source is placed in contact with the skin allowing the photon energy to penetrate tissue, where it interacts with various intracellular biomolecules resulting in the restoration of normal cell morphology and function. This also enhances the body’s natural healing processes.
