WHAT'S NEW?

South Texas Spine & Joint Institute is currently the only medical facility in San Antonio, Texas that

Deep Tissue Laser Therapy for Pain Management.  The principle of laser therapy
was first described in the theory of stimulated emission in 1917 by Albert Einstein.  Over the last 30-
years, laser therapy has progressed and expanded with improved therapeutic techniques for the
benefit of patients.

The LCT-1000 Laser Therapy is ideal for Pain Associated with Soft Tissue Injuries:

  • Back Pain and Spinal Conditions

  • Myofascical Trigger Points
  • Epicondylitis (Tennis Elbow)
  • Sprains and Strains
  • Repetitive Strain Injuries
  • Tendinopathies
  • Planter Fascitis

How Laser Therapy Works

Studies have shown that when tissue cultures are irradiated by lasers, enzymes within cells absorb
energy from laser light.  Visible (red) light and Near Infrared (NIR) are absorbed within the
mitochondria and the cell membrane.  This produces higher ATP levels and boosts DNA
production, leading to an increase in cellular health and energy.  When applied as treatment,
therefore, lasers have been shown to reduce pain and inflammation as well as stimulate nerve
regeneration, muscle relaxation, and immune system response.
