Infrared Light Sciatica Therapy: Fastest Pain Relief
Light Therapy has been used for a long time by spas and dermatologists. Now Infrared Light Therapy is used for any pain complaint and has been used successfully against sciatica. Infrared Light Sciatica Therapy is safe, painless, non-invasive and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved. It is the latest treatment of choice for speeding up the recovery time for sciatica. This type of therapy increases circulation and blood flow to the pain area. The Infrared Light Sciatica Therapy helps to reduce the inflammation, the pain is decreased and the healing process is accelerated.
Normally an attack of sciatica lasts about 6 weeks, but with the Infrared Light Sciatica Therapy it takes 4 weeks or even less to heal. Hence you can resume your duties pain free, and lead a happier and more productive life.
How It Works
Let us see how the Infrared Light Sciatica Therapy is unique from other forms of treatment for acute and chronic pain management. An infrared camera takes a high resolution thermal image of the body. This is done to determine the exact site of the pain and inflammation. Once the exact spot on the body has been located, an Infrared Light Therapy device called a Photonic Stimulator is then applied on multiple acupuncture or trigger points for a maximum of 60 seconds.
While the treatment is being done, live images of the exact site are displayed on a high resolution monitor. The total treatment time can be from 3 minutes to 15 minutes. Sometimes just one treatment is enough to achieve pain relief, whereas in severe cases a series of treatments may be necessary.
An Infrared Light Sciatica Therapy device emits small beams of light called photons to the targeted areas of the patient's pain. Many of the photons penetrate 2cm to 3 cm into the tissue. They react with electrons and energize the dysfunctional sympathetic nerve cell membrane.
Effects
The Infrared Light Sciatica Therapy not only reduces pain but also stimulates nerve function and circulation. It also promotes tissue healing. Circulatory disorders can be improved because it helps to improve the metabolism and circulation. It provides analgesic, anti-inflammatory and anti-edematous effects as well as wound-healing effects. Even post-surgical pain can be treated by the infrared light therapy.
Actually the nourishing rays of infrared and red light are emitted most abundantly by the sun during sunrise. The Infrared Light Sciatica Therapy uses the same rays to stimulate the mitochondria of the cells to produce enough energy. Because of the stimulation the cells function at their optimal efficiency. Therefore, by working on a cellular level, the body acquires the natural ability to heal itself.
The Infrared Light Sciatica Therapy has many advantages over other modalities which provide more short-term relief with increased circulation and a mild healing effect. The therapy can be used directly over the spine, and does not require the use of gels, lotions, pads, or towels. It is even safer than metal or plastic implants, glues, sutures, pacemakers and spinal-cord stimulators.
