What is Laser Therapy?

The benefits of Laser Therapy are proven in more than 4,000 scientific papers and 500 clinical studies.

26+ years of Clinical Experience

BIOFLEX® Laser Therapy utilizes scientifically developed and clinically tested protocols that maximize the effectiveness of treatment of an extensive range of clinical pathologies. Laser Technology uses superluminous and laser diodes to treat diseased or traumatized tissue with photons. These particles of energy are selectively absorbed by the cell membrane and intracellular molecules, initiating a cascade of complex physiological reactions, leading to the restoration of normal cell structure and function. Bioflex laser is Health Canada cleared device.

These particles of energy are selectively absorbed by the cell membrane and intracellular molecules, resulting in the initiation of a cascade of complex physiological reactions, leading to the restoration of normal cell structure and function.

The process is curative and therefore results in the elimination of symptoms, including pain. In addition, Laser Therapy enhances the body’s immune response and facilitates natural healing.

Laser Therapy is completely safe, non-invasive, non-toxic and pain-free. No pain is experienced during a Laser Therapy treatment, you may feel a warm soothing sensation and for many this is very relaxing – some people even fall asleep during treatment!
