About Omega Laser Systems Ltd

Omega Laser Systems is a Low Level Laser specialist with more than 20 years of
research, development and manufacturing experience in this field, underpinned by
a sound working relationship with centres of clinical and research excellence.
Omega equipment is used on a truly worldwide basis, facilitated by our international
network of distribution agents, and our latest products have had USA FDA clearance, are
fully licensed for Canada and have all relevant European certification for medical use.
Although we work hard to maintain the highest quality of equipment manufacturing, it is
probably our level of after-sales customer support which sets us apart in the field, and
of which we are most proud. We believe its key to ensure that a laser system fits the
clinicians needs to enable them to employ it effectively, so we advise on appropriate
tailored systems, train one-to-one with each direct purchase and support new customers
as they build confidence in using the equipment.
Our sales and technical staff look forward to dealing with any enquiry relating to low level
laser therapy.

Low Level Laser Therapy

In brief, Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) primarily stimulates
the bodys cellular response to damage. In soft tissue injuries,
for example, LLLT rapidly increases the proliferation of growth
factor cells (i.e. macrophages, fibroblasts and mast cells in
particular) and is therefore widely used to accelerate tissue
repair and mobilise chronic conditions. With appropriate
protocols it can also effectively block pain message signals
through nociceptor suppression, stimulate acupuncture and
trigger points and increase endorphin release.
There is a large body of research to be found on the clinical
effects of low level laser. Our website at www.omegalaser.co.uk
lists a selection of key research papers and there are a number
of publications giving excellent overviews of research and
treatment call us for recommendations on books to consider.

Electrotherapy

This is an exciting time in the low level laser field with much research
underway and new developments coming though all the time. The
adoption of photobiostimulation, either as an alternative or adjunct to
more traditional approaches, is increasing as people appreciate the
effectiveness of this non-invasive and drug-free option. In addition
to the established applications of pain-relief and wound-healing which
are pertinent across diverse fields from physiotherapy and podiatry to
dermatology, dentistry and veterinary applications, Low Level Laser
Therapy is also now being used successfully in areas such as trigger
point stimulation and non-needle acupuncture, most notably perhaps for
smoking cessation.
Our aim is to enable this work by developing our equipment to meet
the needs of the growing range of researchers and clinicians who are
discovering the benefits of LLLT. We would therefore welcome your
input, as part of our product research and development process.

Omega Xp Models
With a high performance rechargeable battery built into each of the two Xp models, these base units
are capable of extensive treatment time without the need for separate battery packs, nearby power
sockets or extension cables whilst in treatment position.
The Xp models also include an acupuncture point finder, which gives a continuous electronic reading
indicating when an acupuncture point has been located. The micro-current facility used to identify
such points can also locate and measure trigger points, making it an invaluable tool for physical
therapists. This feature utilises a purpose-designed hand probe and acupuncture probe tip, both of
which are included at no additional cost with either Xp System.

The Omega Xp Clinic

118

This latest control unit from Omega Laser

Systems is designed to sit comfortably in
todays modern clinic. It comes in a softly
curved moulded casing to complement the
contemporary clinic aesthetic but is solidly
built for durability under heavy clinic usage.
If your use is exclusively in one clinic then this
is the top specification model for your needs.
With an Xp Clinic based system, probes can
also be supplied in the new white style for a
consistent look.

The Omega Xp Mobile

This portable Xp model has been designed for those on the move. The Xp Mobile is more
traditionally manufactured in steel for robustness. It is lighter, more compact and is usable in its
padded carry case, leaving the clinicians hands free for treatment. The market leading battery
really comes into its own in the Xp Mobile, making this unit ideal for mobile users whether its
for domiciliary medical use, on-the-spot sports injury treatment or treating animals in the field.
When used in the clinic, the separate stand provided positions the unit with complete stability
and visibility on any flat surface.

Invisible Infra-Red Light Probes

Allowing deeper
penetration than the red
light probes, the 820nm
single infra-red light probes
are available in powers
between 50 and 200mW.
The higher powers simply
deliver the required energy more quickly but the lower
powers are more economical in terms of initial outlay.
Infra-red 5-diode cluster probes with articulated heads
and autoclavable bezels are also now available. These
apply an 820nm wavelength beam on each of 5 points
at once, being ideal for situations where treatment time
is at a premium.

The infra-red light at 820 nanometers (nm) provides a

penetrative, highly effective wavelength for soft tissue
and sports injuries, pain relief, acupuncture point
stimulation and smoking cessation.

120

These probes encourage fast resolution of

musculoskeletal injuries and substantial relief for
arthritic, herpetic, neuralgic and neuropathic pain.
An infra-red is the probe of choice for treatment of
verrucae and general stimulation of immune system
response. Needle-free, non-invasive acupuncture and
trigger point stimulation with these probes can be used
in the treatment of a range of conditions from tendinitis
to tinnitus.
Cosmetic clinics also report success using these probes
as the key tool for reduction of scarring, eye bags
and wrinkles.

Finally, Omega manufactures a super-pulsed single

probe with a 915nm wavelength. This is particularly
effective for mobilising healing for chronic injuries
through its more aggressive light delivery. Osteoblasts
have been shown to be particularly responsive to
this part of the spectrum.
Consequently this probe is
ideal for fracture treatment
and is often referred to as the
bone probe.
The 915nm probe has a
different body shape, but the
rest of the single probes, of
either wavelength, can each
be used with any of specialist
autoclavable tips, including
the acupuncture tip.

Multi-Wavelength Cluster Probes

Omegas multi-wavelength cluster probes incorporate specific wavelength combinations to address
key cell types in the different stages of healing. Although the diodes emit at lower powers in these
probes, the synergistic effect of the wavelength combinations show enhanced results by comparison
with single wavelength use alone. Increasingly, the most effective protocols for musculoskeletal
applications in particular are found to involve the use of a multi-wavelength probe in serial combination
with a purely infra-red wavelength probe. A multi-wavelength probe is therefore indispensable for
optimal treatment.
As detailed above, we offer three
multi-wavelength probes, each
utilizing 5 or 6 different wavelengths,
with combinations of between 20
to 60 diodes in each. The smaller
cluster is more suitable for areas
such as hands or feet and the larger
versions allow improved coverage for
extensive treatment areas. All have
articulated heads for convenience
and clinician comfort in treatment.

4.4 PALS
PALS BlueBlue

Has legs: Gel flows around hair and into the pores of the skin
for better skin contact. Improves the gel-to-skin adhesion lowering
skin resistance and providing increased stimulation comfort.
TPN180

PALS Blue resists dry out: Traditional blue gels require foil
packaging as gel dries quickly after opening. PALS Blue is more
robust and durable allowing convenient zip lock bag packaging.

TPN165

More comfortable and less skin redness when used in

conjunction with stimulators that have an unbalanced waveform.

Rondo SAD Lamp

CODE: RONDO
The Rondo is a new and stylish bright light therapy lamp
for treatment of SAD. Its round and harmonic design
creates a warm feeling of the sun and summer.

Rondo has a powerful 55 watt TC-2D fluorescent tube which

disperses the light evenly throughout the entire lamp shade.
The surface lumiosity is exceptionally low. That is why the light
is so comfortable to eyes. Electronic ballast raises the light
frequency up to 30.000 Hz resulting in a flicker free, effective
and enjoyable light.
Therapy distance 50 cm. The Rondo can also be wall mounted.

How will a Rondo SAD Light Box help me?
A SAD Lightbox provides quantities of light not achievable by
traditional lighting. They provide you with a supplement of light
on those days when nature doesnt deliver or when youre stuck
indoors. A SAD lightbox such as the Rondo will provide that
supplement.

How often will I have to use a light?

It varies from person to person but most SAD
sufferers, especially during the darkest part of
winter, use light therapy almost every day. Some people can skip
two or three days whilst others notice SAD symptoms creeping
back even after one day.
There can also be days when its bright outside, even in winter,
and if you can get out and make the most of it you might not
need extra light therapy that day. As spring comes around and
the days get consistently brighter, youll probably find you need
to use your light less and less.
How long do I use it for?
A typical time for a Rondo would be around 1 hour, but see
how you get on. After a few days, if your symptoms have
improved, you could gradually cut down and see if you notice
any difference.
Whens the best time to use the Rondo light box?
Most people find that light therapy in the mornings works best
so, if you are just starting out, try this first. Try not to use your
light late in the evening though (i.e. within 3 hours of going
to bed) as you may find it difficult to get to sleep. If you have
trouble waking up in the mornings then you should definitely
use a light box first thing.
Can children use light boxes?
Although its not that common, some children get SAD and
its perfectly safe for them to use a lightbox. Its certainly not a
problem to have a lightbox on whilst there are children in the
same room or if they come and sit with you when youre getting
your light therapy.
Can I wear glasses when Im using a light?
You can wear glasses or contact lenses and still use a lightbox or
a light visor. On the other hand, sunglasses, photo-sensitive or
tinted lenses will reduce the effectiveness of light therapy.

Light therapy is helpful for antepartum depression, according to the results of a randomized pilot study published in the March
issue of the Journal of Clinical Psychiatry 2004.
