MLS lasers are the most advanced and innovative therapeutic laser systems available today. The patented Multiwave Locked System (MLS) uses a combination of a pulsed laser and a fixed laser maximizing the medical benefits of both types of lasers simultaneously reducing pain, swelling, inflammation, and edema providing fast, effective, and safe results. Here’s what to expect with MLS laser therapy treatment.
The process of administering MLS laser therapy is a very simple one. You lie on an examination table and the laser beam is moved over your skin at the site of injury using either robotic device or handheld device. The procedure is completely painless and is akin to waving a flashlight over an injured area. Energy from the lasers penetrate the injured deeper tissues and work on a cellular level improving metabolism and speeding up the healing process.
The number of treatments needed may vary depending on the type of injury, but in general patients can expect to obtain significant relief of painful symptoms with 3 short 8-minute therapy sessions.
MLS laser therapy is FDA approved and has been well validated through a variety of clinical trials. It can help treat conditions such as plantar fasciitis, neuropathy, tendonitis, joint pain, arthritis, and postsurgical swelling. Some patients may even be able to avoid surgery with MLS laser therapy.
If you would prefer not to take medications, injections, or undergo surgery for acute and chronic pain conditions, MLS laser therapy may be the right option for you.
