Hiltherapy Treatment

What is a laser beam?

The theoretical foundations about the laser beam were laid by
Albert Einstein in the early 20th century. Actually the abbreviation of
the word laser is “Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of
Radiation”.

Therapeutic laser

The first use of laser beams in medicine, which is used
for different purposes in many fields from industry to surgical applications,
was made by Teodore Maiman in the early 1960s. Medical cold laser
applications, which started to be used in these periods and are still valid
today, are preferred because of their effects such as pain reliever and tissue
regenerative. However, this treatment method, also called low-level laser
therapy or Class IIIb laser, is systems that cannot be effective deeply into
the human body and can reveal the expected effects after long treatment
sessions.

High intensity laser (HILTERAPY)

In the early 1990s, the therapeutic effects of
high-intensity laser beams, also called Class IV laser, were discovered and
used safely in problems related to the musculoskeletal system. High-intensity
laser devices with a high wavelength of 1064 nm have a source structure called
Nd: YAG, unlike cold lasers. This system, whose power is approximately 50
times more than cold / classical lasers, sends a consistent and polarized
energy that can go down to approximately 6-12 cm deep in the body when desired. In
painful situations, its effectiveness can reach 90%. The number of
applications may vary between 5-10 sessions intermittently depending on the
condition of the disease.

Way of action of high intensity laser

High intensity laser has several major effects on human tissue:

Pain relief effect

• Circulation enhancing effect

Anti-inflammatory (edema-reducing) effect

• Tissue regenerating effect

• Muscle relaxant effect

Due to its existing technology, high intensity laser is
capable of revealing these effects in a short time such as a few minutes and in
deep tissue.

In which diseases it is used

Painful shoulder diseases

Waist – neck hernias

Muscle spasm

Painful arthritis cases

Muscle – tendon injuries

Heel spurs

Tennis and Golfer’s elbow

Fibromyalgia
