Quick takeaways

  • Laser therapy success is measured by significant reduction in pain and improvement in function, not necessarily complete restoration.
  • Treatment progress can be interrupted by new injuries or events, but it doesn't mean the treatment plan was ineffective.

Deep dives

Laser Therapy Success Rates

Laser therapy success rates can be measured by a 30% or better improvement in symptoms and function one year after treatment completion. It's important to note that success does not always mean total pain relief or complete restoration of function. For instance, knee replacements may not result in 100% pain relief or the ability to perform certain activities. However, if there is a significant reduction in pain and improvement in function, it can still be considered successful. LTI clinics, which use high-quality equipment and proven techniques, have success rates of more than 90%, making laser therapy an effective treatment option for many orthopedic and neurologic conditions.
