The Power of Class IV Laser Therapy
Class IV laser therapy utilizes an infra-red electromagnetic energy to produce therapeutic effects such as: improved healing time, pain reduction, increased circulation, and decreased inflammation.
When the laser light source is placed against your skin, photons penetrate several centimeters down and are absorbed by the mitochondria (the energy producing part of a cell.)
Chemical effect of Class IV Laser Therapy.
The Importance of Cell Regeneration
Simply put, healing is only possible with the regeneration of cellular energy.
Research shows tissues targeted by Class IV Laser Therapy are stimulated to increase production of a cellular enzyme that is critical to the production of ATP (the currency of chemical energy in living cells).
