Photobiomodulation Explained
Drug-Free / Surgery-Free / Pain-Free
Aspen Laser Therapy (also known as photobiomodulation therapy or “PBMT”) generates photochemical responses at the cellular level which increase circulation and cellular energy production while reducing inflammation and oxidative stress. PBMT also increases the rate and quality of tissue repair, improves muscle performance, enhances recovery and alleviates pain.
During each brief laser therapy session, the Aspen Apex uses a simple hand piece to deliver PBMT in a localized, region-specific manner. This allows for a more focused approach to treating specific areas of the body, helping to improve clinical outcomes and facilitating the healing process.
Whether you’re recovering from an injury or dealing with a chronic condition, pain and inflammation can hold you back from the activities you love. Therapy with the Aspen Apex will help you to break free from the pain and start living the life you were meant to live. Even after your first session, you’ll begin to feel better, perform better and live better!
