Laser is an acronym for "Light Amplification by the Stimulated Emission of Radiation." Albert Einstein (1879-1955) first developed the theory for the development of the therapeutic laser.

In 1962 the first low level laser was developed and Endre Mester in Hungary reported much improved wound healing using low level laser radiation. Low level laser has been used successfully in England, Scotland, Canada and Europe for more than 20 years with no adverse side effect.  It has been in the United States for the past three years.

The properties of low level laser allow the light to penetrate the surface of the skin without heating or creating any damage as well as no known side effects.  Laser light converts into chemical energy in the cells and promotes natural healing and pain relief.  When light penetrates the blood in this manner, it has a positive effect by delivering oxygen and energy to every cell.

The first laser therapy session takes approximately 40 minutes, including the pre-screen and consultation. Additional sessions, if necessary, take about 20 minutes.
