|
Extensive
laboratory and clinical research into this method
of laser application has shown that:
- Sports injuries
involving trauma to soft tissue, tendons and ligaments
had accelerated recovery ranging from 35% - 50% in
85% of patients
when compared with patients who did not receive this
method
of laser therapy. (Simunovic, Z., Trobonjaca, T.
2000)
- Speedier reduction in pain, inflammation, joint
swelling and
increased range of movement (Orjujay, 1989., Barabas,
1991)
- Significantly reduces the time to turn a non-weight
bearing injury
into a weight bearing one (Enwemeka, C. 2000)
- Aids
bone healing and osteo-integration with prosthetics
and other
bio-implants (Asanamietal, 1993)
- Increases the survival
rate of injured and crushed peripheral nerves
(Rochkind, S., Nissan, M., Alon,M. 1999)
- Induces
regeneration and repair of spinal cord injury
(Rochkind, S., Alon, M., Quaknine, G. E., Shahar,
A., Nevo, Z. 1997)
