Conditions that respond well to laser therapy

Laser therapy can be effective for conditions that involve inflammation or tissue damage. Inflammatory conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, tendonitis, and bursitis can improve with laser therapy. Additionally, tissue damage, such as sprained or strained muscles, partially torn rotator cuffs, and whiplash injuries, can also benefit from laser therapy. However, genetic disorders like Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, where the connective tissue blueprint is faulty, may have reduced success rates with laser therapy.
