Recovery
Post-surgical

Laser acupuncture is a procedure where traditional acupuncture points are stimulated through the use of a laser beam replacing acupuncture needles.

Laser light has some characteristics that differ from conventional light and find application within the medical field. The laser beams propagate in parallel, producing a rectilinear beam of light with very little loss of power. When focusing on a tissue, the laser energy can be discharged onto that tissue, thus transferring the beam's energy for therapeutic purposes. 

Wavelength is the most important factor in the type of therapy to be performed.

The use of laser has some advantages in relation to traditional acupuncture:

  • It is a painless method
  • It is better accepted by children, the elderly and more sensitive people
  • It is not invasive
  • Increases the production of collagen tissue, so it is widely used in aesthetic procedures.
  • Can be applied in areas where the use of the needle may have some contraindications, such as very painful areas (post-trauma, for example)
Post chirurgic recovery

There are laser equipment for use in acupuncture with various wavelengths:

  • THE infrared laser operates in the range of 880 nanomers and can penetrate the skin usually about 2.5 cm. This wavelength is most used for the treatment of muscle pain, inflammation in joints, tendons and helps in the recovery of fracture of small bones.
  • THE red laser operates in the 660 nanometer range and has less skin penetration. Generally, its penetrating power is no more than 5 millimeters. It is used to stimulate peripheral points, auriculotherapy, wound healing, facial and body aesthetics as it stimulates collagen production, reducing the depth of wrinkles and creases of expression.

It is the laser most used in pediatric clients or with more sensitive constitution.

THE Laser by itself, it can accomplish 3 actions simultaneously:

 

  • Regenerator
  • Analgesic
  • Anti-inflammatory.

In case of post-surgery, the use of laser will enhance tissue regeneration, reducing inflammation in the area and, by having an analgesic effect, improves the quality of life of patients.

No contraindications, It's painless, non-invasive and can greatly reduce recovery time from surgery.
