Did you know that laser therapy has been around since the 1960s? Since then, laser therapy has steadily gained in popularity over the years due to its effectiveness in promoting healing and reducing pain.

Laser therapy uses specific wavelengths of light to penetrate the skin and tissues. This light energy is absorbed by the cells, leading to a series of biological processes that promote healing.

• Increased ATP Production: The cells absorb the light energy, leading to an increase in ATP – the energy currency of cells – which they use to repair and regenerate.
• Reduction of Inflammation: Laser therapy can decrease the levels of inflammation at the cellular level, while acting to increase anti-inflammatory properties, leading to reduced inflammation and pain.
• Enhanced Collagen Production: Laser therapy stimulates collagen production at the cellular level which is crucial for tissue repair and regeneration.
• Improved Blood Flow: Laser therapy promotes dilation of the blood vessels, which leads to increased blood flow to the treated area – delivering crucial oxygen and nutrients to damaged tissues.

In this month’s Wellness Connection video, Dr. Matt is joined by Dr. Krystyne, who explains what laser therapy is and how it can aid in healing.
