Tennis Elbow Class IV Cold Laser Therapy

(Newswire.net — May 27, 2014) Darien, CT — What is a Class Iv Cold Laser and how will it help Tennis Elbow? I am glad you asked that question. Let me begin by saying that Tennis Elbow is a repetetive strain type of injury. You may be surprised to learn that non- tennis people get it as well. Either way we have been able to help most of the people who come in for treatment.

 We started using Cold Laser and additional therapy because of several reasearch papers that supported its use in healing joint pain. The wave length of light that is used is 804 nanometers with out put of about 200 watts. Sounds wordy?

 Here is what you need to know. You cannot be burned by the low level of output. In fact the treatment is painless. You may feel a slight warmth across the surface area treated. What happens is that the damaged tissue responds to light energy in the form of photons. A photon is a small packet of light. Light produces energy just like photosynthesis does in plants.

 The 804 nanometer diode penetrates over 2 inces deep to speed cellular healing. It is so effective because it is non-invasive and works with speed and efficency. Treatment times are cut in half with greater patient satisfaction. Most times people will feel nothing at all, maybe a slight warmth.

 We then take care to re-align the ( lower arm bones) radius and ulna to the humerus (upper arm bone). BY restoring the joint’s normal movement we can cut additional treating time off and have the patient playing a lot sooner. 

 With summer here we all want to be outside playing.
