Abstract

Laser therapy is a type of radiation therapy in which a concentrated beam of light injures or kills the tissue. It is a cutting-edge scientific development that has been successfully applied to treating and managing a wide variety of diseases around the world with zero environmental impact. Pain and inflammation relief and tissue repair have all been examined, and their underlying mechanisms have been found and analyzed. A wide range of clinical conditions, including musculoskeletal pain, osteoarthritis, joint pain and inflammation, neuropathic pain, otitis, dermatitis, chronic, or non-healing wounds, and decubitus ulcers, can be alleviated with laser therapy, which employs light energy of varying wavelengths and power densities. Laser medicine has several therapeutic benefits. When using laser therapy techniques, all appropriate safety measures must be taken. This chapter introduces laser systems and their potential use in healthcare.
