Features:
-
Phototherapy is a safe and effective method of treating muscle, tendon, ligament, connective tissue, bone, and skin tissue injury. It works by improving circulation, reducing inflammation and pain, and accelerating the body’s own natural wound healing process.
- The Equi-Light System is easy to apply, nonintrusive, and has no harmful side effects.
- Each flexible therapy pad allows the photo-energy to be delivered in contact with, and perpendicular to, the treatment area. The result is that no energy is lost due to surface reflection or distance, providing a more effective and efficient delivery of treatment than with a hand held treatment head. The pads can be combined to allow up to 15 square inches of treatment area.
- Benefits of Photo-therapy:
Accelerates cellular reproduction, growth, and repair
Stimulates fibroblast production to speed wound healing
Reduces formation of scar tissue
Reduces swelling
Increases vascular and lymph activity
Stimulates nerve cell reconnection and function
Stimulates production of endorphins and enkelphins, which are the body’s natural pain killers
