High-power laser is relatively recently used in therapeutic protocols for the control and treatment of painful syndromes.
Unlike a low-power laser, its power is 7, 15, or 25 W. The laser probes they can use are different wavelengths from 635 to 904 nm (mandatory use of goggles for each wavelength by both the therapist and the patient).
Therapeutic effects:
A) biostimulation
B) photomechanical
C) thermal effect
(more significant compared to a low power laser).
Application technique: pulse method - analgesia, microcirculation improvement, anti-inflammatory effect, and continuous method: biostimulation, thermal effect.
Duration of treatment: 10-20 minutes, 3-15 treatments.
Indications: sports injuries, myofascial pain syndrome, intervertebral disc herniation, wound healing, scar healing.
