Laser Therapy or cold laser is a very popular and an effective option for pain management and tissue healing. Cold laser therapy refers to laser therapy which uses low levels of light to stimulate healing in the body. It is referred to as “cold” because it does not heat up body tissues during treatment. This therapy is non-invasive and Pain free and can be used to treat different conditions and areas of the body. It has been shown to help with pain relief, decrease inflammation, increase blood flow, stimulate wound healing, promote tissue regeneration, and diminish scarring.
