    Combined laser therapy and electrical stimulation was tested on experimentally tenotomized and repaired rabbit Achilles tendons to see if it would further accelerate healing compared to each treatment alone. In previous studies, early mechanical loading and laser photo-stimulation independently promoted tendon healing. The hypothesis was that combining laser phototherapy and mechanical load would further accelerate healing of the repaired rabbit Achilles tendons compared to using either treatment alone.

    In previous studies we demonstrated that early mechanical loading and


    laser photo-stimulation independently promoted tendon healing. Thus,
    we tested the hypothesis that a combination of laser phototherapy and
    mechanical load would further accelerate healing of experimentally
    tenotomized and repaired rabbit Achilles tendons.
