What is Remy Class IV Laser Therapy?
Class IV laser therapy is used for the relief of pain, to accelerate healing and decrease inflammation. When light source is placed
against the skin, photons penetrate several centimeters down and are absorbed by the mitochondria (the energy producing part
of a cell). This energy results in the restoration of normal cell function. The main goal of laser therapy is to stimulate the cell to
perform its natural functions, but at an enhanced rate. In contrast, to “cold lasers,” which provide no feeling or sensation, high
power diode laser therapy provides a warm, soothing feeling
May provide relief from the following conditions:
- Postoperative Pain
- Plantar Fasciitis
- Achilles Tendonitis
- Posterior Tibial Tendonitis
- Ankle Sprains
- Neuroma
- Capsulitis
- Bursitis
- Arthritis
- Wounds
- Fungus
Benefits of Remy Laser Therapy
Anti-Inflammation
Laser therapy has an anti-edemic effect as it causes vasodilatation, it activates the lymphatic drainage system (drains swollen areas). As a result, there is a reduction in swelling caused by bruising or inflammation.
Anti-Pain (Analgesic)
Laser therapy has a high beneficial effect on nerve cells which blocks pain transmitted by these cells to the brain and decreases nerve sensitivity. Also, due to less inflammation, there is less edema and less pain.
Accelerated Tissue Repair and Cell Growth
Photons of light from lasers penetrate deeply into tissue and accelerate cellular reproduction and growth. The laser light increases the energy available to the cell so that the cell can take on nutrients faster and get rid of waste products.
Improved Vascular Activity
Laser light will significantly increase the formation of new capillaries in damaged tissue that speeds up the healing process, closes wounds quickly, and reduces scar tissue.
Increased Metabolic Activity
Laser therapy creates higher outputs of specific enzymes, greater oxygen and food particle loads for blood cells.
Trigger Points and Acupuncture Points
Laser therapy stimulates muscle trigger points and acupuncture points on a non-invasive basis providing musculoskeletal pain relief.
