Laser Treatment for Tendonitis Issue

Tendonitis refers to inflammation or irritation of the thick fibrous cords that connect muscle to bone. Pain and tenderness are felt immediately outside a joint in this disease. Tendonitis can affect any of your tendons, but it’s most frequent in the areas of your shoulders, elbows, wrists, knees, and heels.

Although tendinitis can be triggered by a sudden injury, it is much more likely to be produced by the repeated usage of a certain movement over time. The majority of people get tendinitis as a result of repetitive actions that exert stress on the tendons in their work or hobbies.

The symptoms of tendinitis tend to occur at the point where a tendon attaches to a bone and typically include:

·         Pain is often described as a dull ache, especially when moving the affected limb or joint

·         Tenderness

·         Mild swelling

There are multiple types of treatments for this issue. Recently, however, Low-Level Laser Therapy has proved to be among the most effective.

LLLT is the application of red and near-infrared light over injuries to stimulate cellular repair. LLLT has a powerful anti-inflammatory effect as well as a healing effect on the inflamed tendons of Achilles Tendonitis and surrounding inflamed soft tissues. LLLT has proved to be completely safe and has no effect on normal tissues.

However, the quality of the laser equipment used for such a therapy should be carefully addressed because it has a direct influence on and even improves recovery possibilities.

When it comes to treating Tendonitis, the Physiotherapy 980nm Diode Laser System LASER-1.41 has shown to be a preferred option among doctors due to its great efficacy.

Indeed, this Laser therapy machine has a wide range of clinical applications, including painful tendon issues typically like the problem in hand.  

With a low-level 10W laser power, The device is mainly being used for tendon pain relief meaning it will work on relieving patients from recurrent pain, stiffness and swelling feelings.

Unlike many pharmacological treatments that mask pain or only address the symptoms of disease, Laser Therapy treats the underlying condition or pathology to promote healing. This means that Tendonitis treatment is indeed effective and the benefits of Laser Therapy are long-lasting.

To explain in more detail, The device is targeted in haemoglobin and cytochrome c oxidase. So, in sharp contrast to “Cold lasers” which provide no feeling or sensation, high power diode laser therapy will provide a warm and soothing feeling which is the exact thing requested from Tendonitis patients.

Another advantage the device possesses is that it accelerates tissue repair and cell growth. That is, Photons of light from this laser machine will penetrate deeply into the tissue and accelerate cellular reproduction and growth. The laser light increases the energy available to the cell so that the cell can take on nutrients faster and get rid of waste products. At the end of this process, tendonitis patients may feel relieved.

Tendonitis, if left untreated, can lead to tendon rupture, which is a far more dangerous ailment that may necessitate surgery. Fortunately, laser treatment has been designed to give precise therapeutic services for this particular problem.

As a result, Tendonitis sufferers can feel more at ease and be less sensitive to stiffness and swelling as long as LASER-1.41 is precisely intended to offer them with the treatment they require to effectively recover their physical function and quality of life.
