Laser Therapy Treatment
Laser Therapy LEPT or Cold Laser or Photon Therapy
First developed over 30 years ago, phototherapy uses a specific type of light to penetrate the skin’s surface and underlying tissues to stimulate the body’s natural repair processes. The light energy – photons, is absorbed by the cells and are converted to complex biochemical substances that the cells and tissues use to eliminate pain and heal the tissues. The result is faster healing and reduced pain, swelling, and inflammation. While normal healing cause scar tissue formation, which results in further abnormal functioning, laser heals tissue without abnormal scar formation. This type of treatment has been used successfully to treat such issues as;
- Athletic Injuries
- Acute & Chronic Conditions
- Repetitive Strain Disorders
- Tissue Healing

By providing the extra energy required for healing, the tissue is able to heal itself naturally. 
This innovative therapeutic alternative may also eliminate the need for painful, debilitating surgeries and drug therapies so often accompanied by harmful side effects.
As with all of our services, if you would like more detailed information, email us at info@physioactive.ca or contact your chosen Physiotherapist directly.
Lasers have been clinically used for over 45 years and Health Canada approved the clinical application of lasers 15 years ago.
Over 5,000 scientific papers published on laser therapy, reports no side-effects. Laser therapy is completely safe (it emits no radiation), painless, non-invasive and non-toxic.

FAQ
-
How Does Light and Laser Therapy Work? Light and laser therapy use specific wavelengths of light to penetrate deep into your tissues, where they interact with your cells to promote healing. This process is often referred to as photobiomodulation. Here’s how it works:- Cellular Energy Boost: When the light reaches your cells, particularly the mitochondria (the energy producers of the cells), it stimulates the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is essential for cellular function, providing the energy your cells need to repair and regenerate damaged tissues.
- Anti-Inflammatory Effects: Light and laser therapy help reduce inflammation by improving blood flow to the affected area. This increased circulation brings more oxygen and nutrients to the tissues while helping to remove waste products and inflammatory markers. As a result, swelling and inflammation decrease, allowing your body to heal more efficiently.
- Pain Relief: Light and laser therapy also provide significant pain relief. The treatment reduces the sensation of pain by decreasing the activity of nerve cells that transmit pain signals. Additionally, the therapy promotes the release of endorphins—your body’s natural painkillers—providing immediate and lasting relief.
