Deep tissue laser therapy is a fairly recent and innovative method of providing pain management and reducing inflammation, and is designed to be useful for a wide variety of patients. Of the many products that provide this valuable therapy, there are few that can compare with the high quality and dynamic ability of the OptonPro High-Power Laser Therapy System by Dynatronics.
Laser therapy uses red and infrared laser light, effectively creating a photochemical reaction in the skin and subcutaneous tissues that promotes the reduction of inflammation and pain, as well as an increase in circulation. This method of treatment has grown in popularity over the past few years for its ability to reduce pain while being non-invasive and easy to use.
The OptonPro High-Power Laser Therapy System represents the cutting edge of laser therapy technology, designed with top-of-the-line features that offer a safe and effective pain relief solution to patients of all types.
Generally, laser therapy systems operate by using one or more wavelengths of light to create a photochemical reaction in the body. This reaction promotes healthy circulation and can help to significantly reduce swelling and pain. The OptonPro specifically uses both red and infrared laser light to provide an exceptional therapeutic tool that offers the benefits of two therapies in one.
Because of its dynamic ability to relieve swelling and pain, while also promoting healthy circulation, the OptonPro is an asset in treating a wide variety of illnesses, injuries, and conditions. It is equally valuable in rehabilitating patients who are recovering from injury, as in helping to treat a range of chronic pain conditions. Additionally, patients who have poor circulation or suffer from edema may also benefit from the circulation-stimulation associated with laser therapy.
The OptonPro system is one of the only laser therapy systems to provide two wavelengths of light energy—980 nanometers and 810 nanometers—simultaneously. Most other products provide only one wavelength of light or are only capable of alternating between two wavelengths.
By providing both wavelengths of light simultaneously, the OptonPro effectively provides two treatments in one. First, the 980-nanometer wavelength of light works near the surface tissues of the body to provide pain relief by stimulating the body’s reflex pathways. Next, the 810-nanometer wavelength focuses on deeper tissues to promote the acceleration of specific cellular activities in order to stimulate increased, healthy circulation.
As with any medical treatment, there are certain safety risks associated with laser therapy. One of the valuable features of the OptonPro system is its consideration of these risks and its effective ability to protect the patient and provide safe therapy.
Among the many safety features provided by this product are spacers to prevent direct contact with the laser applicator, a multi-step activation process to prevent accidental activation of the device, included safety glasses, and an emergency “off” button.
Perhaps the most valuable safety features, however, are the device’s integrated calibration sensor and its heat threshold test. The calibration sensor runs at all times to keep a continuous measurement of the system’s power levels. This ensures that the power does not fluctuate or provide too much treatment at any given time. The heat threshold test operates by assisting in power-level selection, which protects the user from any potential tissue damage.
The OptonPro system’s 30 cm touchscreen interface offers patients an easy-to-use navigator for accessing treatment, settings, and various other device features. One of the most popular features of this interface, as customers have been quick to point out, is its “favorites” and “memory” lists. These lists allow for fast, easy recall to “favorite-ed” and recently-performed treatment programs. In fact, up to 120 treatments can be stored in each list. This feature is particularly popular when the device will be used for a variety of different patients, such as in hospital or rehabilitation clinic settings.
The OptonPro High-Power Laser Therapy System by Dynatronics is available exclusively at Rehabmart.com. The system is offered with or without an attachable trolley that allows for easy transportation of the system from room to room.
