Cold laser therapy is a relatively new technology compared to many alternative therapies like acupuncture (which has been used since 8000-3500 B.C.), chiropractic (since 1895) and physical therapy.
The first cold laser was FDA cleared in 2001.
Cold lasers are sometimes called Low Level Lasers (LLL) or soft lasers.
Cold Laser therapy offers a non-intrusive option to acupuncture and surgery.
