The Science of Cold Laser Therapy (Photobiomodulation Therapy)
Cold Laser Therapy utilises light with wavelengths within the red and near infrared part of the light spectrum. These wavelengths are known to have the following beneficial effects on human tissue: anti-inflammatory, improving circulation, promoting tissue healing and reducing pain.
The Cold Laser Therapy technology we utilise within our practice are the Multi Radiance Super Pulsed Lasers that combine three clinically proven wavelengths to create the Cascading Energy Effect™, allowing for deeper penetration and enhanced absorption of light.

Research
Cold Laser Therapy has over 30 years of published evidence-based research behind it. There have been hundreds of randomised clinical trials and studies, and several of these studies have been published in some of the world’s top scientific journals like Nature, the British Medical Journal and the Lancet.
