I haven't posting lately as I'm in the process of setting up a new computer and a new blog address (to be announced very soon!). I have been reading many laser studies, and here are some of the exciting discoveries:
Lasers increase the production of new, functional cells, resulting in shorter recovery periods.
The tissues exposed to laser light have greater strength after healing, reducing the risk of re-injury.
Laser therapy reduces the production of scar tissue.
The body goes through 4 healing stages: inflammation, proliferation, remodeling, maturation. Laser therapy impacts each phase in positive ways.
In increase in the formation of capillaries (remember: every muscles fiber, and there are millions, has its' own capillary) which carry oxygen to healing tissue.
I will be posting more soon on pain reduction, and decreased inflammation.
