Laser is a form of light energy - Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation.
This non-invasive method of acupuncture (absolutely no needles are used), performed by Dr. Chris Yam, D.TCM, uses this low power laser (stimulates tissue repair – ‘photo bio-stimulation’), which is too weak to damage cells and has no side effects.
The mechanism of action is believed to be the absorption of infrared energy by cellular tissues, which stimulates a biological response of releasing healing enzymes within those cellular tissues.

What it is
Most of the session is the treatment itself — needles placed at selected points and left in place for a stretch, sometimes with heat or electrical stimulation — with a shorter check-in on what changed after last time and any small adjustments before you leave with the next step in the plan.
