Low-Level Laser Therapy, also known as cold laser therapy, uses specific wavelengths of light to interact with tissue and accelerate the healing process. Unlike high-power lasers used in surgery, LLLT does not cut or burn the skin. Instead, it penetrates the tissue, where the light energy is absorbed by cells, stimulating a process called photobiomodulation. This process helps to reduce inflammation, alleviate pain, and accelerate tissue regeneration [1].
Research has shown that LLLT is an effective treatment for a variety of conditions, including chronic low back pain, neck pain, and other musculoskeletal issues. A 2023 study highlighted that the Erchonia FX 635 laser system, which emits light at 635 nm, provides significant relief for chronic and musculoskeletal pain [2].
