Introduction
Cold laser therapy—also known as low-level laser therapy (LLLT)—is an advanced, non-invasive treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate healing in tissues and reduce pain and inflammation. At TOTAL HEALTH AND INJURY SPECIALIST, we use cold laser therapy to help patients recover from injuries, manage chronic pain, and accelerate the body’s natural healing processes.
What Is Cold Laser Therapy?
Cold laser therapy involves applying a low-intensity laser or light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to the surface of the skin. Unlike surgical or high-power lasers, cold lasers do not heat or cut tissue. Instead, they penetrate the skin to target damaged cells and stimulate cellular energy production (ATP), which supports repair and reduces inflammation.
