How Low Level Lasers Work
Researchers also found that only certain areas of the body were able to transfer light beneath the surface, and these areas corresponded to acupuncture points (meridians).
“Laser Therapy (LLLT) is a natural and biological therapy. Studies have shown that up to 80% of people who have received laser therapy have responded positively.” (Laser Therapy-Clinical Practice and Scientific Background: Turner and Hode, 2002)
How It Works
Scientists have found that there are photo receptors at the molecular level that, when triggered, activate a number of biological reactions such as DNA/RNA synthesis, protein and collagen synthesis, and cellular proliferation. The result is rapid regeneration, normalization and healing of damaged cellular tissue. In addition, by triggering certain acupuncture points on the body they can stimulate the release of endorphins and dopamine into the bloodstream which relieves pain and brings a feeling of relaxation.
Since the biostimulative-regenerative, anti-inflamatory and analgesic characteristics of low level laser therapy began during the past half-century, more than 2500 published pieces have appeared
Einstein proposed that light is composed of corpuscular units called photons. He further claimed that a photon is the smallest unit of light and has a dual nature, being both a particle and a wave at the same time. The energy of a photon is transferred to the electrons when it collides with any material substance and the shorter the wave of light, the greater the amount of energy transferred. In 1905, Einstein was awarded the Nobel Prize for this Corpuscular Theory of Light.
Modern Science
Researchers have shown that light applied to the human skin penetrates the body between 2 and 30mm depending on the color frequency.
in medical journals, official reports, books and more.The vast majority of them offer glowing reports about the success of Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) and provide evidence as to why LLLT is being used in nearly every field of medicine and health today.
LLLT is a dependable healing modality.
