Laser therapy has become an increasingly popular method of muscle tissue recovery from basketball injuries and other sports alike - and there’s no question as to why this is.
Let’s dive into 4 of the top reasons why laser therapy is so widely used and loved by the pro and non-pro athletes of today:
Through a process called photobiomodulation induced by laser therapy, the interaction between photons and cytochrome c complex in the tissues ultimately help to create a boost in cellular metabolism and a reduction in both pain and inflammation - something some believe only medication is capable of doing.
A great thing about laser treatment is that you don’t have to devote hours to a treatment session - for example, a session with Game Changers Sports Recovery’s Theralight 360 Laser Bed can jump-start effective recovery in as little as 10 minutes! This is especially beneficial for anyone with a busy or demanding schedule. Even better, those who have received laser therapy have reported long-lasting relief following only a couple of treatment sessions.
Laser therapy is truly effective for all kinds of injuries - small and large, acute and chronic. However it is most effective in cases of acute conditions when it is administered as immediately following injury as possible. With chronic conditions, it is most effectively used to assist in reducing regular pain and inflammation.
So many athletes today can benefit from laser therapy, even in the comfort of their own homes. For example, offering some of the top physical therapy in Las Vegas, Game Changers Sports Recovery’s Rapid Reboots treatment can be worn just about anywhere to promote recovery from basketball injuries or any sports injury.
Will you be taking advantage of laser therapy when your body needs it most? It certainly won’t hurt you to give it a try - in fact, it will likely do just the opposite. :)
