Photon-Laser Therapy


Light is a form of electromagnetic energy that can be absorbed by cells and used as energy for cellular function. Light-emitting therapeutic devices generally are called lasers, although many are not lasers in the strict definition of the term. To avoid confusion, we use the term "photon therapy" to describe the benefits that both laser and non-laser devices provide.

Whether produced by a true laser or a photon device, a beam of light energy travels through space or tissue and can be reflected, scattered, refracted (bent) or absorbed by molecules it encounters. Unlike ultrasound therapy, which heats specific tissues, photon therapy stimulates the release of neurotransmitters which activate cell functions without raising tissue temperature.


We are using cluster pads of multiple diodes which make treating tendons, muscle areas and joints more efficient.

Photon therapy can be used for both acute and chronic injuries and for a variety of problems, including:

· pain

· blood circulatory and lymph system stagnation

· surface and deep wounds

· scar tissue

· bone healing

· laminitis

· arthritis
