Cold Laser Therapy
Speed Wound Healing
Cold Laser Therapy Mechanisms:
LASER light, in the right wavelengths, penetrates the body eliciting photochemical and photo-biological responses. This term is called PHOTOBIOMODULATION. One of these effects takes place within the mitochondria; the organelle (part of the cell) responsible for making ATP. When light is absorbed, it causes a build-up of individual oxygen molecules that accelerate the formation of ATP (adenosine triphosphate); the cells’ energy and fuel source, to 10 times the average rate. Increased ATP production leads to a secondary cascade of reactions: increasing immune response, accelerating the healing process, reducing inflammation, and reducing pain. We offer professional low-level light therapy that several residents of Tempe Arizona have sworn by!
Cold laser therapy results in a dramatic decrease in inflammation along with an improved healing speed of damaged skin, bone, muscle, ligament, nerves, and cartilage.
Our Apollo Laser is one of the strongest Class IIIB Lasers available that promises deep penetration and short treatment times.
In addition to the Apollo laser, we NOW have the AVANT LZ30Z Laser system. While most research on photobiomodulation is on continuous wave (CW) at the 810 nm wavelength, the new AVANT also includes high-power lasers at the 635 nm wavelength which excels at healing wounds at the skin level. It also has the capability of doing both continuous wave AND pulsed frequency options. The increased power, added wavelengths, and pulsed options make the AVANT system one of the strongest and most versatile state-of-the-art laser systems.

Cold Laser Therapy Mechanisms:
The word LASER is the name of a device that projects coherent radiation in the visible, ultraviolet, or infrared part of the electromagnetic spectrum. It produces photons that are both monochromatic and in-phase. To put it simply, it produces light of one specific color that doesn't scatter. The unique properties of coherence and monochromaticity are the key to why laser light is so effective compared to other kinds of light in pain reduction and healing. Cold laser therapy, also known as phototherapy and low-level laser therapy, involves the application of low-power laser light to injuries and lesions to speed healing and reduce pain. Cold laser therapy is used to reduce inflammation, provide pain relief, and increase the speed, quality, and strength of tissue repair. Laser therapy has been found to offer superior healing and pain relieving effects compared to other electrotherapeutic modalities such as ultrasound, especially in chronic problems and in the early stages of acute injuries. Laser therapy is a complete system of treating muscle, tendon, ligament, connective tissue, bone, nerve, and dermal tissues in a non-invasive, drug-free modality.
