Information about Laser therapy and lymphoedema. 

About laser therapy: lymphedema

The light frequency most used for laser in lymphoedema therapy is 904 nanometers (nm). Light within this spectrum is invisible to the naked eye.

Laser is amplified light running in parallel lines which at certain frequencies has the potential to stimulate beneficial secondary reactions in the body.

Information contained in clinical trials by Dr. Neil Pillar in Adelaide, Australia have shown laser therapy can assist with lymphoedema control.

Laser is not a magic cure.  lymphodma
For your information; From practical experience and statistical information laser therapy is best when used with other lymphatic drainage therapies. It is not a magic cure to control lymphoedema. 

What laser has the potential to do. lymphedma
Laser will assist in improving lymphatic flow and softening hard fibrotic tissues. This in turn normally will help to reduce the associated swelling of lymphoedema.

The results of laser therapy can be truly amazing. Some people respond quickly after just one 60 minute session. With other people it may take many applications to have a similar effect and provide the desired result. 

Recorded information and statistics indicate Laser treatment is ongoing. If no other therapy is concurrently combined into a lymphoedema treatment regimen, then laser therapy is often required every 2-3 weeks for a one hour session. 

Given the  requirement of ongoing treatment it becomes cost effective to purchase a hand held laser for self administration where the laser may be used at home.

Laser therapy for treating lymphoedema works best when combined with Complex Physical (lymphatic) Therapy (CPT).  CPT consists of lymphatic drainage massage, self massage,  compression bandaging, compression garments, skin care and eating the best choice foods to promote lymphatic health with dietary considerations.

Types of laser. limfadeema

There are two types of laser used in the treatment of lymphoedema:  handheld lasers and scanning lasers. 

Scanning lasers are most often used in hospitals. Handheld lasers are used in hospitals, clinics, and by patients themselves at home. The most common lasers used for lymphoedema therapy are handheld laser units.

The average time taken for lymphoedema treatment using a handheld laser or a scanning laser is of one hour duration. Laser therapy is applied in a selective pattern matched to each persons needs. By doing this the best lymphoedema therapy treatment may be effected. 

Laser models and availability will vary from country to country. Development costs, regulations, taxes, duties, equipment and delivery charges are subtly different and impact on the final prices. lymphedeema

Summary information:

What is laser?
Laser is amplified light that runs in parallel lines. Laser light is capable of penetrating body tissues.

How does laser provide therapy?
When applied into body tissues laser light has the potential to stimulate secondary beneficial responses at cellular level. These responses have been proven to show positive results when applied to a lymphoedema affected area.

What to expect?
Many people with lymphoedema have swollen limbs, hard fibrotic tissues and fluid retention. Laser has the potential to assist with softening body tissues: improving lymphatic flow and helping to reduce swelling. 

Results may be immediate or be most effective after many treatments. Each person will react differently to laser therapy. Most people will positively react to laser therapy.

Who uses it?
Any person with lymphoedema, lipoedema, cellulite, swollen limbs or joint pain may use laser therapy.

Treating Lymphoedema with Laser has been used as a supplementary treatment for lymphoedema reduction in conjunction with Complex Physical (Lymphatic) Therapy (Casley-Smith Method) which includes combinations of Massage, Bandaging, Lymphoedema Compression Garments, Skin Care and Diet consideration since the mid 1990's in many Lymphoedema Treatment Clinics throughout Australia, with the first Riancorp laser expressly purchased for laser lymphoedema treatment in 1993. Since then other phototherapy units and lasers have come onto the market with similar function.

Laser lymphoedema treatments are also performed in many hospitals using a  scanning laser requiring a patient to disrobe and lie on a treatment table to have laser light applied to the subject and surrounding body areas for periods of 30 mins or more. Home based Laser Lymphoedema Treatment or Phototherapy treatment can be achieved with similar result to that of many hospitals using a Hand Held Low Level Laser, Polarised light or Phototherapy Unit from the privacy of a patients own home.

The Handheld LTU 904H Laser Unit used in the sponsors lymphoedema clinic is a TGA Registered Class 1 Laser Product in Australia and the only laser device cleared by the FDA in the USA specifically for the treatment of lymphoedema. This laser and alternative lasers are available from the sponsor Poppy Lane Skin Care & Lymphoedema Clinic and provide plenty of options to suit differing budgets. All laser units supplied are suitable for home use.

A clinical "Randomised, Double Blind Trial using Laser for the treatment of Lymphoedema" was performed by the Flinders Medical Centre in South Australia. In this trial over 30% of patients achieved reduction of limb volume of 200mls or better which is a significant result. Similar results have been achievable at this clinic in arms and legs using lasers which are also suitable for use by patients themselves at home..

To obtain best result with Lymphoedema and Laser Therapy, from clinical experience, the most effective results are achieved when combined with  CPT self massage, dietary considerations, skin maintenance, compression garments and if required, a little professional CPT massage.

If you are able to visit  for a clinic consultation in Sydney, treatment is available from Poppy Lane Skin Care & Lymphoedema Clinic the website sponsor at Lansvale, NSW 2166. Ph (02) 9723 5402.
