Low level (cold) lasers have been used internationally over the last 18
years for the treatment of a wide range of medical conditions including
soft tissue injuries, cervical neck pain, repetitive stress injuries,
tendinitis, hamstring injuries, arthritis, plantar fasciitis, lateral
epicondylitis and wound healing. Over 300 clinical studies, 2000
published articles and a number of texts speak to the validity and
efficacy of laser therapy. However, it was not until 2002, after the FDA
approved lasers for the treatment of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and related
health problems, that they became readily available in the United
States.
Now, both professional and collegiate trainers as well as world class
professional athletes and team physicians from across the country are
adopting 830laser into their treatment regimens.
