Berman Laser

Laser therapy utilizes precise, narrow beams of light with specific wavelengths and frequency, to reduce inflammation, improve range-of-motion, and help stimulate the body’s restorative process to heal pain and reduce inflammation.

The Difference in Classes of Lasers

There are four different Classes of lasers. Lasers in Classes 1-3 have relatively low power, and are known as low level lasers (LLLT). Class 4 lasers, such as the Berman Medical Laser, are more powerful. This type of laser therapy can penetrate more deeply, passing healing energy to nerves, muscles, ligaments, and tendon tissues more deeply and quickly than LLLT. 

The FDA has cleared Class 4 lasers, including the Berman Medical Laser, for therapeutic use. Berman Medical Lasers provide rapid pain relief and improved blood circulation, with no known side effects, faster recovery times and no scars. What’s more, clinical outcomes of Class 4 laser therapy clinical outcomes are considered better and longer-lasting/sustained.

The Medical Benefits of Class 4 Laser Therapy

The Berman Medical Laser works in many ways to provide relief from pain and inflammation, while triggering the body’s natural healing process. Here are some of the benefits it provides:

  • Reduces swelling and inflammation
  • Helps nerve cells block pain messages to the brain, and also improves nerve functionality in damaged tissues
  • Accelerates cell growth & tissue repair—due to deep penetration of light energy 
  • Increases the generation of new capillaries to help accelerate healing, reduce scar tissue, and close wounds
  • Reduces scar tissue formation
  • Provides musculoskeletal pain relief by stimulating knots in muscles and acupuncture points
