Treating Acute Sports Injuries

Acute sports injuries involve a rapid inflammatory process that if left unchecked or treated incorrectly can result in a prolonged recovery or the development of chronic symptoms. Athletic injuries can be challenging for the healthcare professional to resolve in a timely manner with impatient athletes. Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) is often called cold or low-level laser/light therapy and has unique mechanisms of action that accelerates the resolution of the inflammatory pathway resulting in faster healing of muscle, tendon and ligament damage associated with sports injuries.
