Weight Loss Therapy

Lose Weight - Suppress Appetite - Reduce Cravings

Pain free, relaxing and effective. Cold laser therapy is a modern, laser based version of acupuncture. Instead of acupuncture needles a cold laser beam, no bigger than a ball point pen is directed onto energy points in the body, ears, nose and wrists.

Low level laser treatments are drug free, painless and non invasive. The laser is applied to specific body points that block addiction receptors and stimulate endorphins into the body. Endorphins are the natural mood enhancer's.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does it work?

With cold laser treatments the release of endorphins will help encourage the suppression of appetite, reduction of cravings, alleviate the stress and depression often associated with dieting as well as helping to increase your metabolism and reduce the body's need to store fat.

How many treatments will I need?

After an interview with the patient, this will be determined.

How soon will I see results?

This is based on each individual.

How long will a treatment last?

Approximately 30 minutes.

What is Low Level Laser Therapy?

Overview of LLLT

Recent scientific research is confirming that Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) has a seemingly universal effect on all mammalian soft tissue cells! Low doses of electromagnetic energy in specific wave lengths of the infrared range are absorbed by intracellular chromophores. This naturally stimulates cellular metabolism, and triggers the physiological cascade.

The key concept is that properly administered LLLT can significantly accelerate or induce natural healing and/or produce a “rejuvenating effect on all mammalian soft tissue! Our patients typically experience a 25-50% reduction in healing time for acute injuries. LLLT has had excellent results with many chronic conditions -- reducing pain and sometimes curing the problem entirely!

LLLT offers many advantages:

  • It is absolutely PAINLESS! No needles, injections, electrical stimulation or smelly ointments.

  • It is NON-THERMAL! During treatment, patients feel virtually nothing as very low levels of photonic energy are directed into targeted tissue. Circulation is stimulated as a natural by-product of increased cellular metabolism, local vasodilation, and vascular regeneration.

  • It SIGNIFICANTLY ACCELERATES NATURAL HEALING! For acute conditions, TLA patients typically experience a 25-50% reduction in healing time. Chronic conditions are more individualized, but results have often been produced when nothing else worked.

  • It MINIMIZES OR ELIMINATES SCAR TISSUE! This is especially important in treating traumatic and post-surgical wounds, where scar tissue and keloids are cosmetically undesirable and can cause chronic pain.

  • It is the ONLY THERAPY THAT CAN BE USED IN AREAS AROUND METALLIC IMPLANTS since LLLT is non-thermal and does not involve electrical stimulation.

  • It can REDUCE OR ELIMINATE THE NEED FOR ANALGESIC (PAIN KILLING) MEDICATIONS! Such drugs can produce very undesirable side effects.

LLLT CAUTIONS

LLLT should not be used to treat:

  • Eyes – since the laser could damage light-sensitive ocular tissue.

  • Cancerous tissue though scientific research in this area is ongoing and holds promise, the energizing effect of LLT is currently contra-indicated for cancerous tissue.

  • Areas around fetal tissue because LLLT stimulates cellular metabolism.

Treatment Regime Considerations

Typically, treatment sessions take 30-45 minutes. The frequency and number of treatments required depends on the specific condition. For port-surgical care or traumatic injuries, treatments should begin as soon as possible after the causal event.
