5 LASER THERAPY MYTHS: DEBUNKED

[ON-DEMAND WEBINAR]

Science
Watch Time: 66 mins.

When it comes to laser therapy, there is a lot of misinformation surrounding the technology. It can be difficult for clinicians to sift through the claims to find what stands up to the scientific evidence and what clearly falls short.

Who better to debunk the myths than a clinical research scientist in the field of photobiomodulation (PBM*)? LightForce's own Director of Photobiomodulation, Ann Ketz, brings her years as a researcher in the field of laser therapy to help clear the air and lay out the facts regarding some of the most common myths. During this webinar you will learn what's fact and fiction as we dive into:

• Does power matter treating at depth? I've heard it's only wavelength that matters...
• Is dosing based on peak power like in super pulsing or is it average power? What's the difference?
• Isn't heating tissue bad?
• Can't you treat through clothes?
• What does irradiance have to do with effective treatments?

*PBM is the name for the process of focused laser light entering the tissue and interacting at the cellular level to trigger a biological cascade of events that leads to an increase in cellular metabolism and a decrease in both pain and inflammation).
