Laser Therapy for Stroke and Traumatic Brain Injury
HEAL FASTER AND FEEL LESS PAIN
Laser phototherapy is a safe, non-invasive treatment for stroke and traumatic brain injury.
How does it work?
Laser Phototherapy has been shown to:
- reduce brain swelling
- protect against apoptosis (programmed cell death)
- increase antioxidants
- decrease inflammation
- modulate microglial activity
- stimulate lymphatic drainage
Simply put, laser phototherapy stimulates the body's own healing mechanisms which leads to inflammation reduction and tissue repair.
