What does High Power Laser Therapy treat?

High-Power Laser Therapy (HPLT), particularly Class IV and EMS high-output systems, is an advanced, non-invasive treatment used to rapidly reduce pain, inflammation, and tissue irritation. Laser therapy delivers concentrated photonic energy deep into tissues, stimulating cellular repair and accelerating healing.

Unlike medications or injections, HPLT works without downtime, side effects, or tissue damage, making it suitable for both acute injuries and chronic degenerative conditions. Many patients experience significant improvement within 1–3 sessions.

Common Conditions Treated With High-Power Laser Therapy:

  • Acute muscle strains (calf, hamstring, quadriceps)

  • Acute ligament sprains (ankle, knee, wrist)

  • Chronic tendon pain: Achilles, patellar, rotator cuff, gluteal tendinopathy

  • Plantar fasciitis and heel pain

  • Nerve irritation: sciatica, cervical radiculopathy, peripheral nerve pain

  • Osteoarthritis (knee, hip, shoulder, hands, feet)

  • Bursitis and synovial inflammation

  • Shoulder impingement

  • Tennis elbow / golfer’s elbow

  • TMJ pain and inflammation

  • Disc-related pain (lumbar or cervical)

  • Post-surgical inflammation and pain

  • Carpal tunnel and other entrapment neuropathies

High-power laser therapy uses concentrated wavelengths of light (typically 810–980 nm) that penetrate deep into tissues. This energy triggers biochemical changes known as photobiomodulation.

Key Physiological Effects:

  • Increased cellular energy (ATP) production
    → helps cells repair faster

  • Enhanced blood flow and microcirculation
    → delivers oxygen and nutrients to damaged tissue

  • Reduced inflammatory chemicals (Prostaglandins, IL-1β, TNF-α)
    → decreases swelling and irritation

  • Improved collagen formation
    → essential for tendon, ligament, and fascial healing

  • Reduced nerve sensitivity
    → laser stabilises nerve membranes, decreasing pain signals

  • Accelerated removal of metabolic waste
    → reduces chronic tissue congestion

  • Increased lymphatic drainage
    → assists in reducing swelling and stiffness

These effects work synergistically to speed up healing, reduce inflammation, and provide fast and lasting pain relief.

Benefits & How
HPLT works

Why Choose Laser Therapy Over Traditional Options?

  • Completely non-invasive and painless

  • Safe for acute injuries where shockwave may be too intense

  • Speeds up healing 2–3x faster in many soft tissue injuries

  • Suitable for sensitive or swollen areas

  • Does not cause microtrauma (unlike shockwave)

  • Can be used immediately post-injury

  • Safe alternative to repeated steroid injections

Laser therapy is particularly helpful for fresh injuries, nerve pain, inflammatory conditions, and cases where patients cannot tolerate stronger mechanical treatments..

High-power laser therapy is generally painless and very well tolerated.

Most patients describe it as:

  • Gentle warmth

  • Mild soothing heat

  • Relaxing and comfortable

Because the energy is light-based, not mechanical, there is no shock, pressure, or force applied to the tissue. Even highly irritable or acute injuries typically respond well without discomfort.

After treatment, some patients experience mild warmth or temporary light soreness, which usually settles within an hour.

Who Should Not Undergo Laser Therapy?

Although laser therapy is considered extremely safe, a few contraindications exist:

Contraindications / Exclusion Criteria:

  • Active cancer or tumour in the treatment area

  • Pregnancy (especially over the abdomen or low back)

  • Over active growth plates in children (use modified parameters)

  • Thyroid gland region

  • Actively bleeding tissue

  • Active infection

  • Sensory loss (patients who cannot feel heat)

  • Directly over tattoos (heat absorption is higher — modify settings)

  • Over metallic implants using very high power (use caution)

Use With Caution:

  • Patients on photosensitising medications

  • Areas with reduced circulation

  • Recently injected corticosteroid sites

Your clinician will adjust settings or choose alternative treatments if any concerns exist.

In Summary:

EMS High-Power Laser Therapy is a fast, safe, and highly effective treatment option for a wide range of musculoskeletal injuries — from acute sprains and muscle strains to chronic tendon pain, arthritis, and nerve irritation.

With its ability to:

  • Reduce inflammation

  • Accelerate cellular repair

  • Improve pain

  • Enhance circulation

  • Support collagen production

…it helps patients return to normal daily activities, sport, and training with minimal downtime.

Laser therapy is an excellent stand-alone treatment and pairs extremely well with osteopathy, rehabilitation exercises, and shockwave therapy when required.
