The Laser Era
When portable lasers became reality, science fiction writers tended to focus on weaponry, or long distance control. In reality, medical care is a leading use for lasers, from dermatology, to wound healing, or eye surgery.
Their precision is a distinct advantage, along with an ability to penetrate surface tissue without damage, to a greater extent than any natural light.
The high levels of light energy provided to inner cells are turned into chemical energy, through cellular mechanisms. Biological functions operate within a shorter timeframe and with greater efficiency.
Neither does laser treatment expose patient to risk when used by our therapists trained hands, making this suitable for wide ranging care.
Aiding Rehabilitation
K-Laser is often suitable for post surgical care, or recovery from physical injury, due to a range of inherent benefits:
-
Wider Stimulation
Increased metabolic, or vascular activity, along with a reduction in free radical activity and levels of inflammation.
-
Reduced Disruption
An analgaesic effect, together with accelerated tissue repair and cell growth, for faster wound healing.
-
Decreased Scarring
A reduction in fibrous tissue (scar) formation and an ability to add elasticity, lessening discomfort.
Other advantages work alongside core benefits, such as improving immunoregulation, making treated wounds more resilient to secondary infection. Transmission in sensory and neural pathways can be enhanced, stimulating regeneration in damaged nerves.
Beginning K-Laser Therapy
We are likely to take you through an initial assessment, to ensure that laser therapy is a good choice and to establish whether other therapies could assist further.
Treatment is available on an inpatient or outpatient basis. The intuitive screen and software built into the K-Laser generate useful information, as will skilled team members, who provide you with laser therapy.
Their support is targeted at your needs, through experience and by choosing specific wavelengths of light for those needs. Treatment is normally comfortable, due to timing and a built in, bidirectional cooling system
The K-Laser is a key aspect of our rehabilitative technology, to reduce inflammation, swelling and pain, along with improving recovery times. Each helping our patients return to normal life as soon as possible.
