Lasers are classified by their power output which is Class 3a at 5 milliwatts maximum output, Class 3b at 500 milliwatts maximum output, and Class 4 over 500 milliwatts. Class 3a lasers are mostly red wavelength and only affect one to two millimeters which is about an 1/8th of an inch into the skin. Laser Therapy Coquitlam should be consulted for those seeking pain relief using laser therapy.
The red laser is good for treating abrasions, cuts, and superficial wounds, but they are not useful for pain relief. Infrared lasers penetrate deeper and can go several centimeters into the body which will reach most injured tissue.
Treatment of deeper pain can be achieved with a Class 4 instrument which offers therapeutic levels of light to larger areas of tissue, the photons of light can reach the injured areas. Infrared instruments enhance the healing of tissue, reduce inflammation, and reduce pain in soft and hard tissue, ligaments, muscles, and even bones. Microcirculation is increased as more red blood cells move into the areas being treated.
Venous and lymphatic systems begin to work in the areas that are treated providing oxygen to the tissues and stimulating hemoglobin to infuse the treated area with oxygen. Cell mitochondria cytochrome oxidase enzymes are stimulated and in turn increase ATP production and the cells function more efficiently. This is what cells normally do, but the instrument enhances their functionality after they have been damaged.
Lasers have typically been used in medicine for surgical procedures, these instruments are very precise and are used for cutting or the removal of tattoos. The Class 4 instead diffuses light in the area it is applied. This therapy should be considered prior to surgery for acute conditions. The cost is much lower, there is no pain or long recovery time, and there are no side effects.
In conjunction with this therapy, spinal decompression is very effective for people who are suffering from bulging or herniated discs. Blood flow in the area is stimulated, tissue irritants are reduced as well as inflammation. Increased blood flow allows for healing to occur. This is particularly effective with carpal tunnel syndrome or other repetitive use injuries, arthritis and other chronic conditions, traumatic injuries like motor vehicle accidents, and strains, sprains, and shoulder injuries or other acute injuries.
Metabolic waste from treatments can cause vasodilation in the tissues and soreness can ensue. This can be remedied by drinking lots of water to flush the tissues out.
Therapy lasers are cleared by the FDA. Four hour training sessions are taught to medical professionals who purchase the laser to teach them how to use the machine and how to treat various conditions with it. A typical session can last 5 to 20 minutes based on what the injury is. The number of treatments needed will depend on the person and the injury that they are being treated for, usually 6 to 12 sessions over 2 to 4 weeks time will produce noticeable results. Not only this the used on humans, but vets are seeing great results when used on dogs for hip dysplasia and intervertebral disc disease as is seen in dachshunds.
