Infrared laser therapy is a current and innovative light-based method used to treat pain and inflammation in various parts of the body. Unlike ultraviolet light, which can destroy the skin, infrared light boosts cell regeneration. Infrared light is applied to the site of injury and inflammation at specific wavelengths to promote cell repair.
Infrared laser therapy is natural, non-invasive, safe, painless, and is capable of stimulating deep tissues to produce optimal pain relief. At Chiropractic UAE, we have been sharing the benefits of infrared laser therapy with Abu Dhabi residents for many years. When you first visit our office, our chiropractor will assess your musculoskeletal system to determine how infrared laser therapy will benefit you.

How Does Infrared Laser Therapy Work?
During this procedure, versatile wavelengths and output of low-level light are applied directly to the targeted regions. Body tissues absorb this prevailing light. Damaged cells respond with a physiological reaction that enhances your body’s natural healing process. Superficial tissue is usually treated with wavelengths ranging from 600-700 nanometers. To experience deeper penetration, wavelengths of between 780 and 950 nanometers are employed. In most cases, you will feel the laser device touching your skin, but no physical sensation. It's devoid of sound, and you will feel no vibration or heat. Each treatment takes only a few minutes
