The beneficial applications of low level laser therapy - Medical Journalist Report of Innovative Biologics

Townsend Letter for Doctors and Patients, Nov, 2002 by Morton Walker

Much like the Q100, however, the Q1000 is most often used for the treatment of chronic pain and inflammatory conditions such as burns. The healing and pain-elimination effects of LLLT in fact, are fast and dramatic (see Photographs 5, 6, 7, 8 & 9).

The 660-Enhancer is a 50 mW "red laser" used for acupuncture in place of needles, for stimulating trigger points, and for many dental applications.

The 808-Enhanceris a 500 mW "infra red" laser in a small hand-held probe the size of a large pen. The power of this infra-red laser has been noted for its beneficial result in controlling bone infections and stimulating bone growth. An FDA-approved laser of the 800-wave length is utilized for carpal tunnel syndrome as reported at the beginning of this article.

Class I, FDA-Registered and UL-Classified Lasers are Safe

I have attended Dr. Lytle's educational lectures where he teaches about the effects of low level laser administration. When given as medical treatment low level laser light emitted by Class I laser instruments such as the Q100, Q1000, or others variably called the Rotary Multiplex and the Resonator, have no potential at all for harming the user or the recipient. These various Class I devices are registered with the US Food & Drug Administration, and they have received their classification based on research completed by Underwriters Laboratory (UL). They offer what the governmental agencies indicate is "non-significant risk (NSR)."

Unquestionably, low level laser therapy is completely safe. I personally own four low level laser instruments for administering therapy to myself, friends, and loved ones. These therapeutic lasers were invented by Dr. Larry Lytle, who exemplifies a holistic health visionary of the highest level. Projected for production is a television video which will demonstrate his personal genius, along with other exceptional medical scientists and health care professionals who are "health visionaries."

The Physiological Repair Effects of LLLT

The physiological repair effects of low level laser therapy are achieved by the light's re-energizing (repolarizing) injured and malfunctioning cell membranes. LLLT also increases the mitochondria's energy output within the cell by more than 150%. The extra energy becomes a repair and restoration mechanism so that the damaged cell begins to thrive once again. This extra energy's cellular repair is graphically shown for a small boy who fell off his bicycle (see Photograph 10).

Advantageous actions of low level laser therapy take place in all organs and tissues of the body for the creation of good cellular functioning once again. They include:

* A reduction of pain by the body's production of endorphins;

* The diminishing of inflammation;

* The stoppage of a tissue's influx of fluids;

* The disappearance of swelling, redness, and heat;

* The elimination of pain;

* The elevation of lymphatic drainage;

* The increase of blood circulation;

* The flow of healing enzymes into a traumatized area;

* Up to 75% increase in enzymes;
