Class IV K- Laser treatments deliver red and near – infrared wavelengths of laser light in order to induce therapeutic effects. These effects include improved healing time, pain reduction, increased circulation and decreased swelling.

K – Laser is proven to bio stimulate tissue repair and growth. The laser accelerates wound healing and decreases inflammation, pain and scar tissue formation. In the management of chronic pain Laser Therapy can provide dramatic results, in non- addictive and virtually free of side effects.
