Laser Therapy - a powerful medical tool
Medicine of today is dominated by expensive pharmaceuticals and advanced technologies. Although generally very sophisticated and helpful, they cause a great number of predictable and unpredictable side effects. Laser therapy offers a safe therapeutic medical modality that is free from side effects. The unique quality of laser therapy is its universal usefulness. Even if more precise conditions such as pain, edema, zoster, paraesthesisa and herpes can be treated, laser therapy also has a general beneficial influence on the immune system, thus enabling healing processes to start. After more than 30 years of use, no harmful side effects have been reported.
Laser therapy has for some persons an aura of magic through its ability to heal longstanding medical problems. To other persons it has an aura of “alternative” medicine through the allegedly poor scientific foundation. Both categories will find that they are wrong. Laser therapy is no magic, and the rich scientific documentation will certainly surprise the unbelieving.
The Authors are Jan Tuner, DDS and Lars Hode, Dr. Sci
They have more than 16 years of clinical experience and scientific knowledge of laser physics. This book will not only enhance your understanding of laser therapy and improve your clinical success; it is also an encyclopedia for laser therapy.
