The MedX SLD Light diode Cluster, with an output power of 500mW, is used together with the Richmar console to treat a variety of medical conditions.It is a light therapy device that can effectively treat conditions like pain, swelling, bruising, inflammation, wound healing and several other conditions. The device utilizes super-luminous diode technology in both infrared and visible red diodes which produce photons of energy and trigger physiological changes in tissue. With the included velcro flexstrap, the SLD cluster can be strapped to the body and be used hands-free or it can be hand-held over the area to be treated.This particular model is private-labeled for Richmar, a medical device company based in Chattanooga, TN, USA which makes medical devices used in physical therapy.
An electrically-powered diode laser intended to provide non-surgical laser therapy [e.g., infrared phototherapy, low-level laser therapy (LLLT)] for localized treatment of musculoskeletal conditions (e.g., muscle/joint pain, sports injury), improving blood circulation in the treated areas to facilitate healing, or for non-needle acupuncture. It typically consists of a control unit which may be mounted on a mobile trolley, a foot-switch, and a connected applicator/beam guide designed for internal (e.g., intravaginal) or transcutaneous delivery of visible red/infrared laser light energy/heat. It is intended to be operated by a healthcare professional exclusively in a clinical setting.
