Class IV laser therapy is an advanced treatment option for degenerative disc disease. This non-invasive therapy utilizes high-powered laser light to penetrate deeply into the tissues, promoting healing at the cellular level. Here’s how it works:
Penetration: The laser light penetrates deep into the tissue, reaching the affected discs and surrounding areas.
Stimulation: It stimulates cellular activity, increasing the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is essential for cellular repair and regeneration.
Blood Flow: Laser therapy enhances blood flow to the affected area, bringing more oxygen and nutrients to aid in healing.
Inflammation Reduction: It reduces inflammation and swelling, which helps alleviate pain and improves mobility.
