What is Low Level Laser Therapy?

Low Level Laser Therapy, commonly known as LLLT (also cold laser, soft laser, LILT) is a form of phototherapy which involves the application of monochromatic and coherent light to injuries and lesions to stimulate healing.

Unlike non-coherent light emitting devices, such as common LEDs and so-called SLDs (usually just infrared LEDs), the coherent, monochromatic and polarised radiation emitted by LASER has unique, specific, and scientifically-proven effects that, at the 810nm wavelength primarily used by SpectraVET, persist deep into the tissue.

What is LLLT used for?

LLLT is used to increase the speed, quality and tensile strength of tissue repair, resolve inflammation, and give pain relief.

It is an attractive form of treatment for animal athletes, due to the prospect of shorter recovery and lay-off times.

The portability of battery-powered diode laser systems enables treatment to be carried out in the barn, the trailer, or in the field, allowing the immediate and therefore more effective treatment of equine sports injuries, such as muscle tears, haematomas, and tendinopathies

Why SpectraVET?

SpectraVET offers fast effective treatment of musculoskeletal injuries commonly suffered by performance animals, and is rugged and powerful enough for the most demanding user.

The SpectraVET base unit is housed in a tough aluminium case to protect it from everyday knocks and bumps, and the laser probes are machined from aircraft-grade aluminium.

 

A range of standard and custom probe configurations in available to suit every budget and application. New probes can be added at any time, ensuring SpectraVET can adapt as your needs change.

More about laser therapy:-

What is Low Level Laser Therapy?

Low Level Laser Therapy, commonly known as LLLT, is a form of phototherapy which involves the application of low power monochromatic and coherent light to injuries and lesions to stimulate healing.

Unlike non-coherent light emitting devices, such as common LEDs and so-called SLDs (usually just infrared LEDs), the coherent, monochromatic and polarised radiation emitted by LASER has unique, specific, and scientifically-proven effects that persist deep into the tissue.

LLLT is used to increase the speed, quality and tensile strength of tissue repair, resolve inflammation, and give pain relief. The technical term often used to describe this form of therapy is 'photobiostimulation'.

Clinical Uses of LLLT

There are a number of potential clinical uses for LLLT, such as those in medical, dental, acupuncture, podiatric, chiropractic, osteopathic, and cosmetic applications. The most popular applications of LLLT are in veterinary, physiotherapy, and acupuncture practice.

The portability and diversity of battery and mains-powered diode laser systems allows treatment to be carried out in clinical, hospital, and field locations. This opens up possibilities for the immediate and therefore more effective treatment of sporting and athletic injuries, such as muscle tears, haematomas, and tendinopathies.

It is an attractive form of treatment for both human and animal athletes, especially those involved in professional sports, due to the prospect of shorter recovery and lay-off times.

This applies equally to the veterinary use of LLLT, which has applications in both large and small animal therapy. It is especially popular in the treatment of sporting horses and racing greyhounds.

Advances over Other Modes of Therapy

LLLT has been found to offer superior healing and pain relieving effects compared to other electrotherapeutic modalities, especially in the early stages of acute injuries, and for chronic problems. LLLT can also be used for Acupuncture Point stimulation.

LLLT is a universal method of treating muscle, tendon, ligament, connective tissue, bone and skin tissue with one simple piece of equipment, however, the best results are achieved when it is used to complement other treatment modalities.

Importantly for athletes, LLLT is a non-invasive, drug-free modality that can be applied on competition day without risking disqualification by drug-vetting tests.

How Does It Work?

The effects of LLLT are photochemical and photomechanical, not thermal. Photons enter the tissue and are absorbed in the mitochondria and at the cell membrane by photoreceptive molecules called chromophores. Photonic energy is converted to chemical energy within the cell, and is utilised in the form of ATP.

Treatable Conditions

Low-Level Laser has been shown to be effective in, but not limited to, the treatment of the following indications:

Infra-Red Wavelengths:

§         Sprains & strains

§         Haematomas

§         Ligament & tendon injuries, bowed tendon

§         Inflammation

§         Joint injuries

§         Myofascial trigger points, pain points and deep-tissue acupuncture points

§         Chronic & acute pain

§         Non-union & small-bone fractures, pedal bone

Visible Red Wavelengths:

§         Open wounds & abrasions

§         Superficial acupuncture points

§         Mucous membranes

§         Post-surgical wounds

Conclusion

As each year passes, scientifically-conducted clinical trials and in-vitro research find more and more applications in which LLLT is not only appropriate, but is more effective than conventional methods of treatment. Quite simply, LLLT works!
