Laser acupuncture

Laser acupuncture is good for children and people who may be shy of needles. It is excellent for recovery from sports injuries, fractures, sprains and so on, and can significantly decrease overall recovery time.

Laser heals by using pockets of light energy, or photons polarised in one plane and coherently focused on one point.

Just before our cells divide and replicate, they emit a vibration that stimulates neighbouring cells to do the same. This is where laser acupuncture can speed up the healing process, especially for damaged tendons and ligaments that may be largely avascular (poor fresh blood supply) and therefore take a relatively long time to heal.

At Bayside Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine Clinic, we use the world's most advanced combined electro-acupuncture and laser machine. Some common ailments such as tennis or golfer's elbow may only require one treatment!
