We are very excited to announce the latest addition to innovative treatments offered here at Tulsa Spine & Rehab, this being the MicroLight Laser. It’s been here only a couple of weeks and we are already receiving extremely positive feedback from our patients concerning its benefits.
First, it’s the only FDA approved cold laser out there. There are two types of lasers, cold and hot, with the hot laser being used primarily in surgery for cutting; then there is the cold laser. Cold lasers do not cause pain of any sort and its primary function is healing tissues. The MicroLight Laser is a handheld device that emits a wavelength of laser which promotes tissue regeneration and healing. In our clinic, it has been used for musculoskeletal complaints such as arthritis, tendon issues, and muscle and joint pain.
We used the laser for a patient’s plantar-fasciitis and his response to it was very positive.
