Laser therapy uses coherent, monochromatic light – part of the segment of visible light or microwaves. The laser beam is the carrier of energy, which it can deliver after falling on the illuminated plane. The Helium-Neon laser applies the red light with the wavelength 632.8 nm.
The diode-based therapeutic lasers have the wavelength from 532 nm (green) up to 1060 nm (infrared). In order to affect the superficial tissues it is better to use lasers with a shorter wavelength, infrared laser affects deeper layers.
The laser can be applied either continuously or in impulses.
It has a significant biostimulating effect, mainly due to the fact that it stimulates collagen, supports tissue vascularisation, speeds up the regeneration of blood vessels, lymphatic routes and epithelia, better use of oxygen and glucose, and in general facilitates the healing process.
At the same time it acts as analgesic, anti-inflammatory agent (antibacterial and antiviral agents), and causes also the shrinking of oedemas.
Application is done locally, based on the doctor's prescription, either on small areas (algic points, initiating trigger points, treatment of wounds, etc.), or larger areas (using laser-scanner). A doctor licensed in acupuncture can apply the laser in acupuncture points (laser acupuncture).
Contra-indications: strict prohibition of application on eyes, on malign and precancer tissues, banned application on glands, belly during pregnancy, varicose veins or acute neuralgic attacks
