Laser Therapy At The Perrymount Clinic

Combining high tech laser technology with hands-on osteopathy treatment to get you better faster

"I went to see Kate with what I thought was tendonitis, but was actually inflamed joints, having hoped it would somehow miraculously fix itself, but 9 months later gave in and went to seek some help. Kate was lovely and put me at ease quickly. I had laser treatment (light therapy) - completely painless. After the first two treatments I honestly didn't see any change. Third treatment and two days later my foot and ankle weren't swollen for the first time in nearly a year and I could walk without pain. It's literally like a magic wand has been waved and I am immensely grateful. Highly recommend.”

The Scientific Benefits Of Laser Therapy

Increased Metabolic Activity

By stimulating key molecules (haemoglobin, water, cytochrome c) K-Laser therapy improves tissue oxygenation, ATP synthesis and intercellular exchanges, activating a cascade of photo-chemical reactions that speeds up the healing, regenerative process.

Improved Vascular Activity

K-Laser therapy induces vasodilation in the treated area and promotes angiogenesis, thus improving blood circulation, optimising tissue nutrition and removal of cell waste and inflammatory factors. K-Laser boosts the lymphatic drainage system as well. As a result, there is a reduction in swelling caused by bruising or local inflammation.

Anti Inflammation

Laser therapy accelerates the termination of the inflammatory process. Interleukin-1, a cytokine that has immune and pro-inflammatory actions, is proven to be reduced by laser treatment, and the antioxidant Super Oxide Dismutase (SOD) levels are enhanced, helping reduce damaging free-radical activity.

Improved Nerve Function

Laser therapy is proven to facilitate the normalisation of nerve signal transmission in the autonomic, sensory, and motor neural pathways. Both Compound Muscle Action Potential (CMAP) and Nerve Latency values show improvement following laser treatment. It is also proven to stimulate axonal sprouting and cell regeneration in damaged nerves.

Analgesic Effect

Pain relief is the result of nerve activity alteration, reduced localised inflammation and swelling, proven to happen following a K-Laser therapy course.

Accelerated Tissue Repair and Cell Growth

K-Laser wavelengths, power and pulse frequencies penetrate at depth into tissues and accelerate cellular reproduction and growth by increasing their metabolism. As a result, the cells of tendons, ligaments, muscles and bones are repaired faster.

Reduced Fibrous Tissue Formation

Early K-Laser Therapy can prevent the accumulation of scar tissue following tears, burns or surgery. Once healed the tissues are proven to be more elastic with minimal scarring, reducing the onset of chronic pain associated with scars.

Faster Wound Healing

Laser therapy optimises collagen and elastin deposition: wounds treated with the K-Laser are proven to heal faster, with increased tensile strength preventing further breakdowns. K-Laser therapy is effective on Chronic Diabetic Ulcers and traumatic wounds.

Immunoregulation

Acceleration of Leukocytic activity and enhanced Lymphocytic response have been observed in treated tissues (enhances the removal of nonviable tissue components and rapid repair). Wounds treated with the K-Laser are more resilient to secondary infections.

There's a lot to take in with this wonderful high tech therapy!

Frequently Asked Questions
About Laser Therapy

How does Laser Therapy work?

Laser therapy uses different frequencies of light in the ranges that we cannot see. Each frequency has a different benefit that basically helps ours cells function better. This is why laser is beneficial for such a wide range of conditions. Think of photosynthesis on a plant but this is light on a human.
