MLS Laser Therapy
MLS (Multiwave Locked System) laser is a non-invasive treatment that provides pain relief without the use of drugs or surgery by accelerating the body’s natural healing process.
Manage Pain. Reduce Inflammation. Speed Up Recovery.
MLS Laser Therapy is a non-invasive, safe, and effective treatment modality. It has been FDA cleared since 2009. MLS Laser blocks pain signals to the brain, while releasing endorphins, alleviating acute and chronic pain. It uses two synchronized wavelengths; one for inflammation, and the other for pain relief. Scientific research shows the combined emission stimulates an energy transfer at the cellular level to induce a natural response that jump starts the body’s own healing process, boosting cell growth and blood flow to the area. The increase of blood supply removes toxins and enhances cellular nutrition for tissue repair. This results in the disappearance of symptoms by increasing the speed at which the body heals, along with significantly reducing swelling.
8 Benefits of MLS Laser Therapy
MLS Laser Therapy FAQ’s
Does it hurt? What does a treatment feel like?
The laser generates no heat, so there is little or no sensation during a treatment. There is no pain associated during the laser application. Laser therapy is relaxing and some people even fall asleep.
How is a treatment done?
The laser is placed 8 inches above the skin allowing the healing energy to penetrate tissue, where it interacts at a cellular level, resulting in the restoration of normal cell function. This enhances the body’s natural healing process.
How long does a MLS Laser session take?
The typical course of treatment is 10 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated. Treatment plans are determined on an individual basis and are typically received 2 to 3 times a week. Like an antibiotic, each treatment builds off the previous treatments, developing effectiveness.
How many treatments does it take?
This depends on the nature of the condition being treated. The typical treatment protocol is between 6 and 12 visits. Conditions such as severe arthritis may require ongoing care for pain control.
How long before results are felt?
Most people experience positive results in 1 to 3 treatments with the average course of treatment being 7 to 10 sessions. Acute conditions usually subside quickly, while some chronic conditions may take up to 6 visits and can be controlled with regular treatments. The effects are cumulative; therefore, expect to see improvement as you proceed through the treatment plan. It is critical to complete the course of treatments recommended or symptoms are likely to reoccur.
Are the results long lasting?
MLS Laser Therapy addresses the underlying condition producing lasting results.
Can it be used in conjunction with other forms of treatment?
Yes, MLS Laser Therapy is even more effective when combined with other forms of therapy, including physical therapy, chiropractic care, massage therapy, and soft tissue mobilization.
How do I know if laser therapy is right for me?
Our doctors will evaluate your condition and perform an examination to determine if you are a candidate for this procedure.
Can MLS Laser be used over medical implants or metal?
Yes, it can be used safely without side effects to surgical or metal implants, as the MLS Laser produces no heat. It is extremely effective for post-operative wound healing, especially with the rehabilitation of hip and knee replacements.
