“Cold laser has become a buzzword. Many people use this term very loosely, but not all lasers are the same. A pointer laser is a laser but has no medical benefit. The wavelength of the laser is what is important because some wavelengths are beneficial and some are not. The wavelength and the power behind it determine the depth of penetration into the body. The cold laser we use has the deepest penetration power into the body, the MicroLight 830.”

“The MicroLight 3B laser, is one of the most advanced and researched lasers that I have come in contact with. From the General Motors research study, from its utilization by the New England Patriots, We recommend the MicroLight laser to all of our Disc Centers of America clients in all 43 States we have clinics in. My son currently has four of them in his practice, and I even utilize one at home. If you’re looking to give patients quick relief, the MicroLight is a game changer.”

“The Microlight laser has revolutionized my practice. I can now effectively treat hypersensitive trigger points without painful compression or needles, so I can safely work in complex areas, and on highly sensitive and fragile patients. In addition to deactivating trigger points, the analgesic effect of laser on non-specific pain is a wonderful bonus.”

“MTPT treats pain at the source so that it doesn’t come back, and can be performed using a variety of methods to deactivate trigger points, including various injections, dry needling, application of vapocoolant with stretch… I used manual therapy for 23 years. It worked great, and helped a lot of people. I now use exclusively cold laser because it’s at least as effective, painless, and much more safe. I’ll never go back.”
