What is Laser Therapy?
Laser therapy uses light to favor and accelerate the body’s natural healing processes. The laser beam is moved over the skin so that the light energy (photons) penetrates the tissue where it interacts with various molecules (chromophores) that cause different biological effects. It produces a photochemical, photothermal and photomechanical effect.

Anti-Inflammatory
MLS Laser Therapy has an anti-edema effect as it causes vasodilation, but also because it activates the lymphatic drainage system which drains swollen areas. As a result, there is a reduction in swelling caused by bruising or inflammation.
Analgesic
MLS Laser Therapy has a beneficial effect on nerve cells. It blocks pain transmitted by these cells to the brain which decreases nerve sensitivity. Also, due to the decreased inflammation, there is less edema and less pain. Another pain blocking mechanism involves the production of high levels of pain killing chemicals such as endorphins and enkephalin from the brain and adrenal glands.
Accelerated Tissue Repair and Cell Growth
Photons of light from lasers penetrate deeply into tissue and accelerate cellular reproduction and growth. The laser light increases the energy available to the cell so that the cell can take on nutrients faster and get rid of waste products. As a result of exposure to laser light, damaged cells are repaired faster.
Improved Vascular Activity
Laser light will significantly increase the formation of new capillaries in damaged tissue which speeds up the healing process, closes wounds quickly and reduces scar tissue. Additional benefits include acceleration of angiogenesis, which causes temporary vasodilation and increases the diameter of blood vessels.
Increases Metabolic Activity
MLS Laser Therapy creates higher outputs of specific enzymes, greater oxygen and food particle loads for blood cells.
Trigger Points and Acupuncture Points
MLS Laser Therapy stimulates muscle trigger points and acupuncture points on a noninvasive basis providing musculoskeletal pain relief.
Reduced Fibrous Tissue Formation
MLS Laser Therapy reduces the formation of scar tissue following tissue damage from cuts, scratches, burns or surgery.
Improved Nerve Function
Slow recovery of nerve functions in damaged tissue can result in numbness and impaired limbs. Laser light speeds the process of nerve cell reconnection and increases the amplitude of action potentials to optimize muscle healing.
Immunoregulation
Laser light has a direct effect on immunity status by stimulating immunoglobulins and lymphocytes. Laser emissions are absorbed by chromophores (molecule enzymes) that react to laser light. Upon exposure to the laser, the enzyme flavomononucleotide is activated and starts the production of ATP (adenosinetriphosphate), which is the major carrier of cell energy and the energy source for all chemical reactions in the cells.
Faster Wound Healing
Laser light stimulates fibroblast development in damaged tissue. Fibroblasts are the building blocks of collagen, which is the essential protein required to replace old tissue or to repair tissue injuries. As a result, MLS Laser Therapy is effective post surgically and in the treatment of open wounds and burns.
Who is the
Ideal Patient
for Laser Therapy?
Anyone with an ailment that can be treated by laser therapy is an ideal candidate for the therapy, as it’s not an invasive procedure and comes with very few complications or side effects. Also, laser therapy rarely negatively interacts with other procedures or medications, making everyone an ideal candidate. However, you will need to speak with The Doctors Frain first as they can help you make the best choices for your health.
However, a few people need to avoid laser therapy, such as those who have epilepsy. The lasers that emit light can trigger a seizure and make the therapy difficult for people with epilepsy. Pregnant women should also avoid lasers as they may affect the fetus. Not enough studies show how laser therapy affects babies in the womb. Also, some forms of cancer cannot be treated with lasers. Call us today to see if you are a good candidate for treatment!

Frequently Asked Questions
Can MLS Laser Therapy Be Used In Conjunction With Other Forms of Treatment?
Yes, MLS Laser Therapy is sometimes more effective when combined with other forms of therapy, including physical therapy, chiropractic, massage, soft tissue mobilization, electrotherapy, and following surgery.
How Long Does the MLS Laser Treatment Take?
The typical course of treatment is 10 to 15 minutes, depending on the size of the area being treated. Treatments are typically received 2 to 3 times per week. Treatment plans are determined on an individual basis.
What Happens if I Get All the MLS Laser Treatments and I Am Not 100% Better?
Throughout treatment the Doctor will reevaluate your progress to make any necessary changes to the treatment protocol for maximum results. After the 12th treatment the Doctor will evaluate your overall progress and discuss your options at that time.
How Many MLS Laser Treatments Is It Going to Take For Me to Feel Better?
Most patients report a positive change within the first 2-3 treatments, but because everyone reacts differently, I cannot say for sure. This does not necessarily mean you will be 100% better, it could be a simple improvement, such as a trip to the grocery store was not as painful. For some more chronic conditions it may take up to 6 visits to feel the benefits of laser therapy.
Am I Going to Feel Anything During My MLS Laser Treatment?
There is little or no sensation during the treatment. There is no pain associated during laser application. Laser treatment is relaxing and some people even fall asleep.
What is the MLS Laser Actually Doing For Me?
Our laser has 4 main effects that it is actually doing for you. The first is an Analgesic effect, which gets rid of the pain. It changes the way the no-ciceptors perceive the pain. The second and third are Anti-Inflammatory and Anti-Edema effects. It improves vascular and lymphatic circulation resulting in reduced inflammation and swelling. The fourth is a Therapeutic effect. The laser accelerates cellular reproduction and growth, which results in faster healing.
Science
The patented MLS pulse was developed as a result of nearly three decades of scientific research that studied the biological and therapeutic effects of different emission components and methods.
The departments of biology at both the University of Turin (Italy) and the University of Padova (Brazil), as well as the Department of Anatomy and the Orthopedic Clinic at the University of Padova have studied and verified the remarkable effectiveness of MLS Laser Therapy.
