The emerging light therapy technology uses infrared energy to provide patients with a temporary increase in blood circulation temporary relief of minor muscle and joint aches pains and stiffness relaxation of muscles and temporary relief of minor pain and stiffness associated with arthritis
Wavelengths between 660 and 1 000 nm are used for this purpose
Light emitted by the laser diode penetrates deepest followed by the superluminous diode (SLDs) and then the light emitting diode (LEDs)
The Mettler Electronics Laser Sys
Stim comes with a 785 nm laser probe with visible blue LEDs that illuminate the treatment field
An optional SLD/LED cluster probe with 950 nm SLDs and 660 nm LEDs is also available
The Laser Sys
Stim allows the clinician to set treatment time continuous/pulse modulation modes and laser output energy
All treatment parameters are displayed on the LED displays and controlled via the membrane keypad
There are holders integrated into the unit to store applicators when not in use
Laser output can also be adjusted via controls on the both laser and cluster applicators
