Laser therapy is the effect of laser radiation to stimulate the regeneration and reconstruction of tissues. The essence of laser therapy is the action of a light beam on a specific area of the body. During radiation, the energy of the laser light is converted into a different type of energy and the desired therapeutic effect is produced. Laser therapy has a wide therapeutic effect, including: increasing DNA and RNA synthesis, increasing the action potential of cell membranes, increasing the level of endorphins, increasing the calcium content and bone density, increasing the activity of the sodium-potassium pump, increasing phagocytosis and increasing the activity and number of lymphocytes, increasing the outflow of lymph from inflamed areas.

The duration of the treatment and the number of repetitions is set individually.
