| Although moderate sports are good for health, too
much exercise gives damages to bones and muscles. If the excessive stress is repeated to a Certain part of the elbow, bones or muscles, the part becomes inflamed and will be leaded to the pain. In case of the tennis elbow, the outside part is typically damaged. An early treatment by the low power laser is very effective to eliminate the inflammation and the pain of such tennis elbow. The 10mW laser is recommended to irradiate for 2 minutes at the most painful point (trigger point) and surrounding points 2 to 3 times a week. Low Power Laser therapy is said to be one of the most idealistic treatment for sports injuries, from the viewpoint of efficacy and safety. | |
