Therapeutic Lasers for
Medical Doctors
As frontline health care practitioners, Medical Doctors see injured patients struggling to manage their pain and regain their mobility every day.
As part of an ongoing treatment care plan, cool laser therapy ("CLT") can help accelerate healing, reduce inflammation, and eliminate pain, all while adding value to your practice and increasing revenue.
More than 4,000 published studies worldwide have examined the use of low-level laser therapy, proving the benefits of this highly effective, non-invasive, and pain-free treatment alternative for a wide range of nerve, muscle, and joint conditions.
Theralase® therapeutic lasers expose tissue to light energy (photons) of two different wavelengths, within the visible and near infrared spectrum, triggering a chain of different chemical reactions within the cell for tissue healing and pain reduction. Theralase® superpulsed laser technology can penetrate up to 5 inches in depth, stimulating even the deepest of conditions*. It is a highly effective, non-invasive, and pain-free treatment alternative for a wide range of conditions*.
Theralase® patented, super-pulsed, non-thermal Class 3B lasers activate all three known cellular pathways.
Accelerate Healing
660 nm Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) Pathway
Theralase® stimulates the mitochondria of the cell to produce more Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP or basic cell energy) to accelerate tissue repair. (Proceedings of the International Society for Optics and Photonics, 2015)
Reduce Inflammation
905 nm Nitric Oxide (NO) Pathway
Independent research proves that the proprietary Theralase® 905nm superpulsed laser technology increases the production of Nitric Oxide (NO) by over 700%, increasing vasodilation and decreasing inflammation versus other competitive wavelengths. (Lasers in Surgery and Medicine, 2009)
Eliminate Pain
905 nm Lipid Absorption Pathway
Theralase® laser technology effectively removes the pain signal at source by rebalancing the sodium potassium pump. (Harvard Medical School, 2010)
Theralase® therapeutic lasers can effectively treat or help improve many physio conditions* such as:
Neck Pain
Migraines / Headache
Rotator Cuff Syndrome
Osteoarthritis
Muscle Strains / Ligament Sprains
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Lumber Arthrosis
Tennis / Golfer’s Elbow
Hip Bursitis
Knee Pain / Ligament Injuries
Plantar Fasciitis
Achilles Tendinitis

Over 100 treatable conditions*
Theralase® cool laser therapy systems have been approved by both Health Canada and the FDA for the safe and effective treatment of pain associated with chronic knee conditions.
*While over 4,000 clinical studies worldwide have proven the efficacy of cold laser technologies in treating a host of other conditions, Theralase® lasers have not received explicit approval for these applications. In-clinic treatment of other conditions is at the sole discretion of the healthcare practitioner and may include the following:
