Low Level Laser Therapy explained: what you should know

Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is a technique that often raises questions — particularly around what it does and how it fits into a broader care approach.

At Banks & Dade, LLLT is used thoughtfully and explained clearly, so patients understand how it may support their care.

What is Low Level Laser Therapy?

Low Level Laser Therapy uses specific wavelengths of light applied to targeted areas of the body. The light energy is absorbed by cells and may support natural cellular processes involved in healing and recovery.

The treatment is non-invasive and does not involve heat or discomfort.

How LLLT is used in care

LLLT is often used as part of a broader care plan rather than as a standalone approach. At Banks & Dade, we consider how laser therapy may complement other techniques and support overall function.

Care is guided by assessment and clear communication, ensuring the technique aligns with your individual needs and goals.

Who may consider Low Level Laser Therapy?

LLLT may be considered by people who are seeking:

  • Support for areas of physical discomfort

  • A gentle, non-invasive care option

  • Additional support during recovery from physical strain

  • Care that complements other techniques

Suitability is always assessed on an individual basis.

What to expect during treatment

If LLLT is recommended, the process is explained before treatment begins. Sessions are delivered in a calm, professional environment, with your comfort prioritised at all times.
