How It Works?
As implied by its name, laser therapy makes use of light photons to penetrate the soft and hard tissues of the skin. This light falls within the spectrum of the red to near infrared region. Penetrating deep into the tissues without causing any uncomfortable temperature elevation, laser therapy comes with a regenerative effect, stimulating the cells in the injured tissues, reducing inflammation and speeding up recovery. This lack of heat is also one reason it is known as cold laser therapy.

Why Laser Therapy?
You may be thinking, why opt for laser therapy when there are medications to manage the pain? For one thing, medications are only a short-term solution, masking the pain for a limited period of time. For some others, it may not even be that effective. Laser therapy is an effective and painless solution that targets the root of the pain and does not come with any unwanted side effects.
How Many Sessions is Needed?
As a perfectly safe and comfortable treatment option, a course of 6 to 12 sessions is usually recommended for patients who wish to reap the full benefits. Of course, this will also depend on your individual health condition. However, many patients have reported an improvement after just 2 to 3 sessions.
