High-Power
Laser Therapy

What is high-power laser therapy? ‍
High-power laser therapy uses focused, high-energy laser light to relieve pain. It targets deeper tissues, such as muscles and joints. It is a powerful treatment option for sports injuries since it also speeds up the body’s natural healing process. 

Who can benefit from high-power laser therapy? 

• Pain reduction: High-power laser therapy stimulates free nerve endings (pain receptors), which leads to pain relief.
  
• Tissue healing: It promotes regeneration of tissues by improving blood flow to the affected area.
• Anti-inflammatory effect: High-power laser therapy speeds up cell metabolism and reduces inflammation. 

What does shockwave therapy treat?‍
High-power laser therapy is also commonly used to treat:

•  Muscle strains: Repetitive or sudden movements can cause muscles to overstretch or tear. High-power laser therapy stimulates cellular repair by increasing blood flow to damaged muscles.
  
• Lower back, neck, and shoulder pain: Poor posture, muscle imbalances, stress, and injury can cause chronic pain in the lower back, neck, and shoulders. High-power laser therapy reduces inflammation and improves circulation in these areas. This treatment is especially effective for sciatica, cervical pain, or shoulder tension.
• Hamstring and glute tendinopathies: Overuse injuries affecting the hamstring and gluteal tendons are common in athletes. High-power laser therapy promotes healing by stimulating collagen production and reducing inflammation in the tendons, leading to faster recovery. It also strengthens the tendons and improves flexibility, preventing future injuries. 
• Plantar fasciitis: High-power laser therapy reduces the inflammation of the plantar fascia and accelerates tissue repair. The treatment relieves pain and supports long-term recovery by promoting cellular healing and improving blood flow.
• Fibromyalgia: This chronic condition is challenging to treat since it is characterised by widespread pain and sensitivity throughout the body. High-power laser therapy offers pain relief by targeting trigger points and reducing inflammation. It also relaxes muscles and increases the release of endorphins.
• Temporomandibular joint dysfunction (TMJ): TMJ causes pain and discomfort in the jaw, often making it difficult to chew or speak. High-power laser therapy reduces inflammation in the jaw joint, providing pain relief and improving jaw mobility.
