The document discusses the use of laser therapy for pain relief and tissue repair. It describes how lasers work by applying electromagnetic energy to stimulate biochemical activity in the body. Different types of lasers are used including neon helium, gallium arsenide, and diode lasers. Lasers have analgesic, anti-inflammatory, and tissue regenerative effects. They are used to treat various conditions affecting the foot, ankle, joints, and nerves. Precautions are outlined to safely administer laser therapy.

LASER THERAPY Laser comes from the Abbreviation: Light Amplification Stimulated Emission Radiation.
Meaning in Spanish: Luz Amplificada
Estimulada por Emisión de Radiación. What is a therapeutic laser? It is a technique by means of which the energy of the electromagnetic spectrum is applied to the organism to facilitate its biochemical activity. * The energy must be measured and calibrated so as not to saturate the live medium or, on the contrary, it is insufficient.
In medicine, therapeutic lasers (soft-laser) are used for
their analgesic, anti-inflammatory and tissue biostimulant effects. Laser for Pain Therapy • Foot and ankle pain, fracture and / or post- operative, tendonitis, neuroma, pain in nerves, tarsal tunnel, joint pain, DJD (Degenerative joint disease) / RA (Rheumatoid arthritis) of any joint, Achilles tendonitis, plantar fasciitis, general inflammatory conditions, unsightly toenails and warts. Post-operative warts Fracture
Foot and ankle pain
Tarsal tunnel
Pain in nerves General
Plantar fasciitis inflammatory
conditions Unsightly toenails Types of Laser: •Neon helium laser •Gallium Arsenide Laser •Diode laser Effects of the laser • Analgesic effect • Anti-inflammatory effect. • Regenerative or biomodular effect. • Enhancing effect of drug absorption or ionic exchange. Photochemical effect of the laser
•Photothermal effect of the
laser •Indications •Contraindications Application techniques •Punctual •Sweep of points •Total sweep of an area Laser functions in different regions of the body • Tissue repair • Collagen formation • Benefits in the nerves and endorphins • Acceleration of the lymphatic system and reduction of edema • Revascularization and increased blood flow Precautions • Tissues infected with Escherichia coli • Radiation on the neck • Patients with heart disease • Do not touch the device directly • Glass objects • Metal objects • Jewelry of the patient ¿Qué es un Láser terapéutico?
• Es una técnica mediante la cual se aplica al organismo energía del espectro
electromagnético para facilitarle su actividad bioquímica .*La energía debe ser medida y calibrada para no saturar el medio vivo o por el contrario resulte insuficiente. • En medicina, los láseres terapéuticos (láser blando) se utilizan por sus efectos analgésicos, antiinflamatorios y bioestimulantes tisulares. • Láser de helio Neón • Láser de Arseniuro de Galio • Láser de diodo • Efecto potenciador de la absorción de fármacos o intercambios iónicos • Pie y tobillo dolor, fractura y / o post-operatorio, tendinitis, neuroma, dolor en los nervios, del túnel tarsiano, dolor en las articulaciones, DJD / RA de cualquier articulación, tendinitis de Aquiles, fascitis plantar, condiciones inflamatorias generales.
