Low intensity laser therapy has been well researched in the medical community for over 20 years. A search in the MEDLINE database of scientific research yields hundreds of articles on the use of therapeutic laser.


In the last 3 years, low intensity laser therapy has been subject to five systematic reviews:

  • BMJ sports medicine journal, systematic review of surgical and conservative interventions for frozen shoulder found "strong evidence" for LLLT. (2010) Click here
  • The International Association for the Study of Pain (Global Task force on musculoskeletal pain) found "strong evidence" for Low Level Laser Therapy on myofascial pain syndrome. (2010) Click here
  • American Physical Therapy Association guidelines recommend LLLT for Achilles tendonitis. (2010) Click here
  • Lancet systematic review: "LLLT reduces pain immediately after treatment in acute neck pain and up to 22 weeks after completion of treatment in patients with chronic neck pain". (2009) Click here
  • World Health Organization (Bone and Joint Task Force) for neck pain Low Level Laser Therapy "more effective than no treatment, sham, or alternative interventions" (2008) Click here
And there’s more:
British Journal of Sports Medicine Vol. 40, No. 1, Jan 2006:
Found that "LLLT…can reduce inflammation and pain in activated Achilles tendonitis."
Pain Vol. 124, No. 1-2, Sept 2006:
The researchers concluded that "Low-level laser therapy (LLLT)...was efficacious in providing pain relief for patients with chronic neck pain…"
Journal of Clinical Laser Medicine & Surgery Vol. 22, No. 2, Apr 2004:
"LLLT combined with RICE can reduce edema in second-degree ankle sprains."
Photomedicine and Laser Surgery Vol. 22, No. 3, Jun 2004 :
The analysis further revealed significant positive effects on specific indices of healing, for example, acceleration of inflammation, augmentation of collagen synthesis, increased tensile strength, reduced healing time and diminution of wound size.
Laser in Surgery and Medicine Vol. 32, No. 3, 2003:
"Low power laser therapy seemed to be an effective method in reducing pain and functional disability in the therapy of chronic LBP (low back pain)."
Journal of Clinical Laser Medicine & Surgery Vol. 18, No. 2, Apr 2000:
"In addition to accelerated wound healing, the main advantages of LLLT for postoperative sport- and traffic-related injuries include prevention of side effects of drugs, significantly accelerated functional recovery, earlier return to work, training and sport competition compared to the control group of patients, and cost benefit."
Journal of Clinical Laser Medicine & Surgery Vol. 16, No. 3, Jun 1998:
"The current clinical study provides further evidence of the efficacy of LLLT in the management of lateral and medial epicondylitis."
Journal of The American Geriatrics Society Vol. 40, No. 1, Jan 1992:
states that "Low-power light therapy is effective in relieving pain and disability in degenerative osteoarthritis of the knee."
Scandanavian Journal of Rheumatology Vol. 18, No. 6, 1989:
"These results demonstrate the effectiveness of laser therapy in tendonitis of the shoulder."
