Chronic Pain PHYSIOTHERAPY

Principles of Laser Therapy

High-power laser therapy can effectively regulate vasoactive amines, kinin receptors, reactive oxygen species, cellular hormone levels, etc., so as to achieve the anti-inflammatory purpose of eliminating inflammation in joints and soft tissues.

High-power laser therapy reduces biochemical signalling, reduces conduction velocity and harmful triggered action potentials, reduces neurotransmitters (substance P), and raises endorphin and 5-hydroxytryptamine levels for analgesic purposes, such as reducing pain from Scapulohumeral periarthritis, myofasciitis, tennis elbow, etc.

Treatment Plan:

Comprehensive diagnosis and treatment of knee meniscus and ligament injuries, anti-inflammatory treatment of soft tissues around the knee joint and intra-articular cavity. symptomatic drug treatment, manual relaxation of muscles around the knee joint combined with physical factor high-energy laser treatment, laser twice a week for 4 consecutive weeks, treatment time 10 minutes, and exercise therapy to improve core muscle strength and lower limb muscle strength and improve overall function.

Treatment Results: After 1 week of treatment, the knee pain was relieved, and after 4 weeks, the pain wasgreatly relieved, and the patient could walk 2,000 steps without pain.
