Low Level Laser Therapy (also known as Class 3B or “Cold” Laser Therapy) is a safe, non-invasive treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light to improve (speed up and increase efficiency) the natural healing process after an injury.  Treatments are typically around 30 minutes in length, and have been shown to produce the following positive responses:

• Decreased pain and inflammation
• Improved blood flow / circulation
• Reduced recovery time

Common conditions treated using Laser Therapy include:

• Ligament sprains / muscular strains
• Tendonitis (rotator cuff, achilles, tennis elbow, jumper’s knee)
• Bursitis
• Knee Injuries
• Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
• TMJ (Jaw) pain
• Joint Inflammation
• Wounds

As with all forms of treatment, results can vary considerably.  The number of treatments required are dependent on the nature of the injury and the overall health of the individual.  Practitioners at Optimum will suggest an appropriate treatment plan after a thorough assessment of the injury or condition.
