What is a Class IV Laser

Therapy lasers work by flooding the tissue with photons, which energizes cells resulting in increased circulation to the injured area and ultimately pain reduction, in a process called photobiomodulation. The result of this interaction, and the point of conducting laser therapy treatments, is the biological cascade of events that leads to an increase in cellular metabolism and a decrease in pain. Laser therapy is used to treat acute and chronic conditions as well as post-activity recovery.
