The Concept Behind Cold Laser Therapy:
The concept of Cold Laser Therapy is actually quite simple. As humans, light plays a very important role in our existence. Similar to how plant cells require light for photosynthesis, our cells need light to power many of the normal processes that keep us healthy and happy. As long as we are exposed to enough regular sunlight, our skin absorbs the light we need and our cells can use it for many of their normal functions. If our cells are working normally, then our bodies are able to withstand different stresses from day to day activities and heal various ailments.
​
Light therapy is not a new concept. It has been and continues to be used by doctors to treat a wide variety of conditions. For example, light has shown to be effective for treating many skin conditions including psoriasis and acne, depression and even tuberculosis before there were medications. Most people who suffer from arthritis can attest to the fact that their pain usually reduces or even completely subsides during the summer months or on a vacation to a sunny destination.
​
Vitamin D, critical for keeping our bones healthy and strong, is created in our bodies by a process that requires sunlight. In places where there isn’t much sunlight available year round, people are usually encouraged to take vitamin D supplements during the darker months to help support their bones and prevent against bone-softening conditions such as rickets (in children) or osteoporosis.
​
When we experience pain or inflammation from a problem or injury in an area of our body, the normal cellular processes slow down and our body has trouble healing as a result. Blood flow to these areas also gets interrupted, which restricts the ability of important nutrients to be delivered to the cells that need to heal.
​
​
The Science:
Scientific research conducted over the last few decades has shown that human cells heal better and faster when the right wavelengths of light energy get delivered to them.
Cold Laser Therapy is a breakthrough solution for musculoskeletal pain because it shines a concentrated amount of only helpful wavelengths of light vital for healing (which are in the red and infrared parts of the spectrum) directly on targeted areas. This allows the bones, ligaments, and tissues deep inside our bodies to be exposed to the healthy light that otherwise cannot reach these areas. By delivering just the helpful parts of the light spectrum, the overall laser light power can be kept at very low and therefore very safe levels, which will not burn or otherwise harm the skin or any other tissues.

Cold Laser Therapy for Pain Relief and Healing in Surrey at Move Health and Wellness
What is Cold Laser Therapy?
Cold Laser Therapy, also known as Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) or low light therapy, is an innovative, non-invasive treatment that utilizes specific wavelengths of light to stimulate the body's natural healing processes. This therapy is designed to reduce pain, inflammation, and swelling while promoting the repair and regeneration of tissues. At MOVE Health & Wellness, our BioFlex Cold Laser Therapy system uses red and infrared light to target injured or inflamed areas, providing effective relief for both acute and chronic conditions.
Cold Laser Therapy works by transferring light energy to the cells, enhancing their function and accelerating the healing process. The therapy involves three steps using specific wavelengths of light:
​
-
Red Light (660 nm): This light penetrates the skin and superficial muscle layers, reducing sensitivity and pain.
-
Infrared Light (840 nm): This light reaches deeper tissues, including muscles, tendons, and ligaments, to reduce inflammation and promote healing.
-
Infrared Laser (830 nm): A concentrated beam targets the deepest affected tissues, including bones, to eliminate pain and restore mobility.
​
This advanced laser therapy is ideal for treating a variety of conditions, such as arthritis, back pain, sports injuries, and more. By delivering the therapeutic benefits of light energy, Cold Laser Therapy at MOVE Health & Wellness provides a safe, drug-free, and effective solution for long-term pain relief and improved function.

How Does Cold Laser Therapy Work? &
What to Expect
Cold Laser Therapy delivers light based energy to cells, helping to accelerate the body’s natural healing process at the cellular level. It targets injured cells, resulting in elimination and prevention of pain, reduction of inflammation and swelling, and improved range of motion. Laser therapy does not just mask the pain, it actively stimulates healing to resolve musculoskeletal conditions for the long term. The BioFlex Cold Laser Therapy system is a three step process using three different and very specific wavelengths of light administered by a trained laser therapist.
​
The first step uses a red light pad at 660 nm, which gets absorbed by the cells of the skin and underlying superficial muscle layers, reducing sensitivity caused in those areas. The second step uses an infrared light pad at 840 nm, reaching deeper into the muscle layers as well as the tendons and ligaments to reduce inflammation and heal damaged tissues. The third step includes an infrared laser wand at 830 nm that is specifically placed over the source of pain. This light is very concentrated and targets the deepest affected tissues, including bone. In combination, these steps lead to the reduction and eventual elimination of pain and restored mobility.

​
What to Expect:
The number of suggested treatment sessions will depend on the type and severity of your condition. Typically, results may be experienced within 3-5 treatments. Full resolution can take anywhere from 5 to 30 treatments. For very severe or chronic conditions, it may be recommended to continue with maintenance treatments once every 1 to 3 months to maintain positive results.
​
Step 1 and Step 2 use different, but have similar looking pads. The pads are placed in one or more prescribed positions over the area to be treated. The first of these pads emits visible red light at a wavelength of 660 nm. The second pad emits invisible infrared light at a wavelength of 840 nm.
​
During the 3rd step a trained laser therapist uses a wand emitting a focused laser light at a wavelength of 830 nm pointing towards the interior cells to be treated. The laser therapist will gently place the laser wand on the skin for a few seconds and then slightly move the wand to a new position, repeating this process for the prescribed amount of treatment time. This movement is needed to ensure the laser wand’s narrowly focused beam of light reaches the entire area to be treated.
