The use of the lasers in medical treatment is an exciting 20th Century development. High powered CO2 lasers are now being used in surgery and eye operations with astonishing results. Low and mid-powered lasers are being updated for acupuncture point stimulation, physiotherapy and the treatment of skin conditions. Modern technology has developed an infra-red laser in the Gallium Arsenide range which emits an invisible beam. Early versions of the low powered laser emitted a power below 5Mw, such as the AcuMedic Infralaser 40.
Low power is only effective in the stimulation of ear points and surface points.
The AcuMedic Neurostimulator is used primarily for the identification of acupoints and tender points. It uses the square wave for optimum effect. This is combined with a comprehensive frequency selector to make it a superior tool for the practitioner in trigger point therapy, auricular therapy and effective energy point stimulation. It is comparatively more powerful than other energy point stimulation devices and has a much more complex range of frequencies. AcuMedic Centre holds a comprehensive supply of accessories for Electro-acupuncture.
