External Acu-LLLT therapy involves the use of light within a specific range of wavelengths which leads to the induction of desirable effects in the target tissues, such as:

  • Reducing pain and inflammation,
  • augmenting tissue repair,
  • regenerating tissues and nerves, and
  • preventing tissue damage.
