Endurance Increased and Muscle Fatigue Reduced with Laser Therapy
A study titled, "Effects of Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) in the Development of Exercise-Induced Skeletal Muscle Fatigue and Changes in Biochemical Markers Related to Post-Exercise Recovery" shares some insights that sports medicine clinicians will find very useful.
The researchers studied male volleyball athletes and concluded, "pre-exercise irradiation of the biceps with an LLLT dose of 6 J per application location, applied in 2 locations, increased endurance for repeated elbow flexion against resistance, and decreased post-exercise levels of blood lactate, CK, and CRP."

Professional Athletes
and Athletic Trainers Endorse Multi Radiance Medical Lasers
"Our organization requires that we offer the best modalities available to our athletes that accelerate healing and maintaining their health. That is why the MR4 super pulsed laser is an integral part of our daily treatment protocols. Multi Radiance Medical's MR4 laser therapy device provides unparalleled pain relief for acute and chronic conditions. It also helps restore mobility and range of motion which allows for faster post-injury recovery during an intense season."

 Laser Therapy for Body Contouring
Study on the Efficacy of Low-Level Laser Therapy for Body Contouring and Spot Fat Reduction
Conclusion: LLLT achieved safe and significant girth loss sustained over repeated treatments and cumulative over 4 weeks of eight treatments. The girth loss from the waist gave clinically and statistically significant cosmetic improvement.
