                      Cold Laser

                      Cold laser therapy has been around for over 30 years, mostly used in Eastern Europe and the Far East. It works at the cellular level of an injured area, where a laser of low energy is delivered through the skin and absorbed by damaged cells. In turn, the mitochondria (powerhouse of the cell) are stimulated to produce more
                      ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which in turn allows the damaged cell to heal and return to a healthy state.


                      Treatments are noninvasive, pain-free and are usually three minutes per injured area. The number of treatments can vary from 2 to 15 depending on the severity of the injury. Cold laser therapy can be used on soft tissue injuries such as tendonitis, muscle strains, ligament sprains, shin splints and bursitis - just to name a few.
