LASER THERAPY AND CLINICAL MANUAL

Low-level laser therapy is being used throughout Europe and Asia to treat pathologies ranging from acne and arthritis to fibromyalgia, neuralgia, tinnitus and wounds. The authors have experimented with many different approaches in more than 30,000 treatments using therapeutic lasers and through their experience have developed the clinically oriented and results-based system in this manual. The first portion of the text explains how lasers work, the parameters of laser therapy (wavelength/dosage/power), the physics of light in tissue, physiological effects contraindications and treatment methods. The second portion presents specific clinical approaches for more than 40 conditions, with illustrations, point selection, dosage and technique.
