What is BioFlex Laser Therapy?
The technology utilizes superluminous and laser diodes to treat diseased or traumatized tissue with photos. 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.
Is Laser Therapy painful?
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!
All our BIOFLEX Laser Therapy systems are Health Canada and FDA approved.
Are there any side effects to Laser Therapy?
Laser Therapy is an extremely safe form of treatment with no known side effects experienced.
