Dr. Joshua John-Ram Schacter explains how laser light therapy works on the knee. The laser delivers thermal energy deep into the joint to promote healing and enhance the effects of injected platelet gels. The device automatically treats preset points on the knee.

The idea behind laser light therapy is that it injects that thermal energy into the joint. It can get into the deep tissues and allows for more optimal tissue healing and release of those healing properties of the platelet gels that we inject. The laser is actually automatic. We turn it on and it treats the tissue within a set parameter. Right now, it's registering all of the points that it needs in order to treat my knee.
