Low Level Laser
Low Level Laser Therapy
Today I thought I would talk a little about Low Level Laser Therapy. It is also called Cold Laser or LLLT for short. There has been some increased exposure on the media lately so I thought some clarification would be good. We have heard how beneficial Lasers are for reducing pain and healing. However, generally don’t know enough about them. When should you use them? Where do you get treatment? And what does Treatment involve?
I have been using the Handicure Pulsed Low Level Laser for several years. It is like a magic wand in the way it heals body pain. Being able to offer Low Level Laser Therapy has been highly beneficial to our massage clients. Here is what I love about it :

“The bio-photochemical effect of the “Handy Cure” device is due to the remarkable energy between a laser of very low average intensity, mild LED radiation and a low-intensity magnetic field”.
