The device is emitting energy in the infrared spectrum to provide topical heating for the purpose of elevating tissue temperature for temporary relief of minor muscle and joint pain, muscle spasm, pain and stiffness associated with arthritis. It is also indicated for promoting relaxation of the muscle tissue and for temporarily increasing local blood circulation.
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), improvement of local 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 intra-orifice (e.g., intravaginal) or transcutaneous delivery of visible red/infrared laser light energy/heat. It is intended to be operated exclusively by a healthcare professional.
