How does MLS laser therapy work? 

MLS laser therapy is a noninvasive, safe, and effective treatment modality that can be used to address a wide variety of root causes of foot pain and inflammation. 

It works by using targeted light energy to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and promote wound healing and soft tissue repair. 

The length and number of treatment sessions your provider recommends depend on many factors, such as your overall health and the diagnosis of your foot pain. 

The MLS laser therapy treatment the practice uses is the only Multiwave Locked System, dual wave, fully robotic laser therapy system on the market today. 

That means the light energy penetrates deeper beneath the skin, reaching critical wound-healing soft tissue. Best of all, it produces no heat, making the procedure comfortable and allowing for faster healing. 

Is MLS laser therapy right for my condition? 

The team at Phoenix Foot and Ankle Institute will work closely with you to determine if MLS laser therapy is right for you and your condition. 

He uses this treatment for many conditions. But that doesn’t necessarily mean it’s always the most appropriate course of treatment. 

Does MLS laser therapy have any side effects? 

No. The FDA cleared MLS laser therapy in 2009, and it hasn’t been linked to any known side effects. Patients at Phoenix Foot and Ankle Institute have experienced highly effective pain treatment results with MLS laser therapy.
