With depression and Alzheimer’s on the rise, our brain health in Coeur d'Alene ID is understandably a top concern for most people these days.

This valuable tool is called low-level laser therapy (LLLT).


The Use of Low Level Laser Therapy In Coeur d'Alene ID

The use of low level laser therapy has been around since the 1960’s. LLLT has been used in the rehabilitation setting for years, but the therapeutic use of LLLT has broadened tremendously. It now includes a wide range of medical conditions such as stroke, myocardial infarction, some brain disorders and traumatic brain injuries. Research isn’t stopping there, it shows positive effects in treating other brain issues, like depression, anxiety, autism, addiction, Parkinson’s, and ALS.

LLLT has been FDA cleared and is found to be safe and effective without any harmful side effects. Low level laser’s don’t cut or burn human tissue like high intensity lasers used in surgical procedures. LLLT promotes healing by encouraging cells to function optimally. Research has shown LLLT to be physically, cognitively, and psychologically beneficial.

The most positive result that research has shown, is light from the LLLT devices causes a photochemical reaction within the mitochondria of the cells. The mitochondria’s job is to generate the majority of the energy in your cells. By stimulating the mitochondria, cells produce more energy to function properly and repair themselves. Mitochondria are vitally important for optimal brain health. Not only does LLLT therapy increase ATP production, studies have shown that it increases oxygen levels in the brain, suppressing inflammation and increasing antioxidants, stem cells, and Nerve Growth Factor, just to name a few.

Research has shown that LLLT Savethat LLLT could be a low-cost, effective treatment for depression and anxiety.
Research has shown that LLLT may be a low cost, safe way to treat depression. While there’s limited research, a review of available research has found that nearly all studies to date investigating the effect of LLLT on mood disorders reported positive antidepressant responses. Here are some ways in which LLLT may help depression: Studies have shown a decrease in oxygen levels in cerebral blood flow with people who suffer from depressive disorders and LLLT increases blood flow to the brain, which in return increases oxygen levels. LLLT therapy reduces neuroinflammation. Research indicates a strong correlation between high concentrations of pro-inflammatory biomarkers in the nervous system and depression.  Research shows a combination of the beneficial effects of LLLT on the brain help depression. Increased ATP production, increased oxygenation and blood flow, reduction of neuroinflammation may synergistically allow the brain to heal.

Research is showing that low level laser therapy has great potential for improving many brain conditions.
