The K-Laser is a state-of-the-art, Class IV laser that has been proven to penetrate tissue and initiate healing. Where they are able to, our expert physiotherapists use it during a treatment session to help with recovery and reduce pain.
By enhancing the body’s natural regenerative functions and stimulating the release of endorphins and collagen, the K-Laser accelerates recovery and wound healing, and reduces stiffness, spasms, pain and swelling.
The K-Laser may be used alongside your bespoke, phased rehabilitation programme to help you get the best results from treatment.
If you agree to using the K-Laser, the physiotherapist will explain the potential benefits during your appointment.
