LOW LEVEL LASER THERAPY

At The Foot and Spine Co, Jill Hunter uses Low Level Laser Therapy to effectively treat a variety of conditions. This technique, also known as "cold laser" therapy, does not emit heat or light and is highly effective at increasing blood flow to targeted areas. This is particularly beneficial for chronic conditions that have persisted for an extended period of time without significant improvement. Reduced blood flow can cause the body to perceive the condition as "normal" and not prioritise its healing. By using low level laser therapy, blood flow to the area is increased, improving the healing process and helping the body flush out toxins and increase platelet supply for enhanced repair.
In addition to its effectiveness in improving blood flow, low level laser therapy can also reduce swelling in acute conditions such as inflamed inversion sprains. At The Foot and Spine Co, we often combine this therapy with myofascial therapy for optimal results.

Low level laser therapy (LLLT) is a non-invasive treatment that uses low-level lasers to stimulate the healing process and relieve pain. It has a range of potential benefits, including:
• Increased blood flow to the treatment area
• Reduced inflammation and swelling
• Faster healing times
• Relief from chronic and acute pain
• Reduced scar tissue formation
LLLT is safe, painless, and well-tolerated by most patients. It can be used to treat a wide range of conditions, including musculoskeletal injuries and neuropathic pain.
