This increase in energy levels allows the cells to work more effectively & efficiently in properly balancing the cellular components, so that the cells can function properly. The laser light function has biochemical energy and improves the efficiency of the body’s healing capabilities. The result is that the body is able to heal itself in a shorter period of time.
