Chronic pain can significantly affect your quality of life. While modern medicine has prescription drugs to block the brain from feeling pain, it is only a temporary solution which can also have negative long term effects. 



Other options like the Theralase laser therapy can give you the relief that you are looking for. What is laser therapy and what can it do for you? Read on to learn about its benefits, what it can treat, and how it works.


What Is Theralase Laser Therapy?


Theralase laser therapy is a safe, effective, and painless therapeutic cold laser treatment. It is referred to as cold therapy because the low levels of light that are used are not enough to feel hot to body tissue. The Theralase laser system is a drug-free, non-invasive, and non-immunosuppressive therapy that provides relief by reducing inflammation at the source of the pain.


The goal of this treatment is to relieve pain, improve joint mobility, improve tissue integrity, and repair damaged tissue by encouraging cell regeneration. Using the body’s own natural healing system, Theralase laser therapy is a technique that is effective for acute and chronic conditions.


Benefits of Laser Therapy


What is laser therapy good for? The Theralase laser therapy accelerates cell growth and wound healing, increases metabolic activity, increases vascular activity, reduces fibrous tissue formation, reduces inflammation, and stimulates nerve function. The anti-inflammation effects of laser therapy are what provide pain relief.


Patients who suffer from chronic pain are more likely to suffer from anxiety, depression, and other mood disorders. Reducing the pain may therefore be a huge relief to those patients helping to improve their quality of life.


What Can Be Treated with Laser Therapy


Cold laser therapy has been successful in healing a variety of neuronal and musculoskeletal conditions. Acute and chronic pain conditions like headaches, carpal tunnel syndrome, sciatica pain, and other nerve or musculoskeletal pain are also benefitted by this therapy. Cold laser therapy is also used to treat skin problems, sports injuries, and fractures while additionally providing relief from symptoms of herpes. 


How Does Theralase Non-Thermal Laser work?


Theralase lasers supply energy to the treated area through billions of photons of light. The dual-wavelength super pulsing technology of the Theralase laser allows it to penetrate up to 4 inches into the tissue to activate all cellular pathways to improve healing, reduce inflammation and relieve pain. 


The body is stimulated when it absorbs the light on a cellular level and turns it into chemical energy needed for the body to repair tissue. This process is what creates the results in that help improve your quality of life, and this technology is the only laser that can achieve such results..
