Laser Therapy (Photobiomodulation)

“A unique modality for fighting pain, reduce inflammation, and healing”

Laser medical devices are a unique modality for fighting pain, reduce inflammation, and healing. There are no side effects associated with the use of this device and very few contraindications which makes it ideal to treat all those niggling pains and respond to treat acute injuries as they happen for people of nearly all ages and physical condition.

Over 4000 studies have been conducted to validate the effectiveness of laser therapy.

How Does Laser Work?

Low level laser therapy (LLLT) or Photobiomodulation works by promoting and accelerating the body’s natural healing mechanisms. The light energy is converted into cellular energy, fuelling the body's cells to work more effectively in the healing process.

Handy Cure as low-level laser combines four sources energy , each of which is known for its individual therapeutic effects. The combination of pulsed laser, pulsed infrared radiation, pulsed red light and a static magnetic field in one device provides synergistic effects that are the key to quick healing.

Super pulse infrared laser radiation penetrates bodily tissues up to 7 cm deep and has a strong stimulating effect on blood microcirculation and the intracellular metabolism. The laser emits energy in the form of photons. Photons are absorbed by cells and tissues as light particles of energy. Light is then converted into biochemical energy. Multiple physiological reactions are initiated and normal cell function is restored. This process is due to a healing effect where with symptoms such as pain, edema, rashes are counteracted.

What can patients expect?

Patients often ask what a laser treatment session actually feels like. It is painless and often perceived as a sensation of pleasant warmth over the affected area. The laser beam is held close to, or directly on the skin while the probe scans specific nerve distributions and referred pain patterns based on known protocols.

Functional Pathology

A different way to look at how the body is working.

The stressors of modern life are changing the types of conditions that we commonly see in practice. Methylation issues, Pyrrole disorder, Heavy metals, Hormonal and Neurotransmitter dysfunction are more commonly being found to be at the cause of many mind / body problems. Our intestinal microbiome has been shown to be vital in the way we are able to digest our food and create energy. It also plays a role in how reactive or intolerant we may become to many common foods such as grains or dairy.

Functional Pathology allows us to have a greater insight to how your body is functioning and adapting in the modern world.
