Low Intensity Laser Therapy (LILT)

Experience the healing nature of light! LILT is “a therapeutic physical modality that uses photons (light energy) from the visible and infrared spectrum for tissue healing and pain reduction” as defined by the North American Association of Laser Therapy. This innovative therapy offers an effective, rapid, drug-free and non-invasive healing solution that may be used as a part of your comprehensive treatment plan. It is also referred to as Low Level Laser Therapy or Low Intensity Light Therapy and describes the process of Photo Bio Stimulation.

Low Intensity Laser Therapy

Experience the healing of natural light!

This treatment modality involves the application of light energy at specific wavelengths and power densities. The energy penetrates tissues and is absorbed by cells. The healing effect is not thermal (heat related) but relates to photochemical reactions, right in the cells themselves! The cellular changes provide relief of muscle and joint pain and increased tissue healing.

Treatment for:

Laser therapy can effectively treat head, neck, limb and back pain; arthritis; pulls, strains and muscle injuries; joint sprains; carpal tunnel and other repetitive strain syndromes; tendonitis; and can aid in post-surgical recovery. It can be used on patients of all ages and for many diagnoses. The light energy increases your body’s cells function and stimulates your body’s natural healing process, somewhat like photosynthesis in plants. There are no known side effects of phototherapy.
