¾ The pure light of the laser causes photochemical reactions in the cells. Laser light
photons are absorbed within the cells. This induces increased production of cellular
energy (ATP), which leads to normalization of cell function, pain relief and healing.
The effect of Low Level Laser Therapy is especially striking in areas of the body
where cells are under stress. The treatment is thought to initiate a series of enzymatic
reactions and bioelectric events, which stimulate the natural healing process at the
cellular level.
