What is a laser?

LASER is an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emisission of Radiation. The use of the word "radiation" in terms of a laser is merely an expression of energy transmission, not to be confused with radioactive materials and ionised radiation..A laser is just a source of light, but light with very special characteristics.

How does a therapeutic medical laser work?

Therapeutic medical lasers heal tissue ailments by bombarding visible and invisible light deep into tissues in the body. These tissues contain protein strands called chromophores and cytochromes that absorb the light energy and convert it into chemical energy. This chemical energy is used by the tissue to accelerate the healing process and to reduce pain.

What is the difference between a therapeutic medical laser and a surgical laser?

Surgical lasers always produce a certain heating of the tissues, which causes irreversible damage. This is primarily due to the absorption of the laser energy into the water of the tissue. With a Theralase™ laser there is no immediate rise in tissue temperature or visible change in the tissue structure. This means that Theralase™ laser can reduce pain, bring down inflammation and speed up the healing process without damaging body tissues.

How safe are therapeutic medical lasers?

They are very safe. There are no known side effects. On very rare occasions a patient may have a temporary increase in pain. The only known danger of therapeutic medical lasers is to point the laser at the eyes at close range.

How effective are therapeutic medical lasers?

Over 2000 clinical studies worldwide have proven the success of therapeutic lasers in the healing of musculo-skelital conditions. Most Theralase™ laser therapists have found that 90% of people receive significant improvements.

Are all lasers equal?

No. There are basically two types of lasers

  1. Continuous wave
  2. Pulsed

In a continuous wave laser, the laser beam reaches its output power and sustains it. A pseudo pulsed is like a continuous wave laser, only the laser is turned on and off to create a pulse effect. In true pulsed lasers, such as the Theralase™ medical laser, the light energy is released in ultra short pulses at certain time intervals. The energy released in one pulse is many times greater than the energy at any moment in a continuous wave beam. It is these high energy pulses (50,000mW compared with 60mW) that treat body tissue and distinguish the Theralase™ medical laser from other lasers.

What are the biological effects of the Theralase™ medical laser?

Here are some of them. Therapeutic medical laser therapy:

  • accelerates cellular reproduction and growth
  • accelerates tissue healing.
  • increases metabolic activity
  • reduces the formation of scar tissue following tissue damage from cuts, scratches burns and post surgery.
  • reduces swelling caused by bruising or inflammation of the joints to provide enhanced joint mobility.
  • increases blood flow to the damaged area.
  • speeds the process of nerve cell reconnection to bring dead limbs or numb areas back to life.

What professional organisations endorse the Theralase™ medical laser?

  • FDA approved for Chronic knee pain
  • Recognised by Health Canada as a medical device for several years.
  • CSA
  • QMI
