Register for WALT now (4 weeks to go)
The World Association for Laser Therapy (WALT) Congress starts in four weeks time. 25 - 28 September, Bergen, Norway
Five authorities have endorsed LLLT in the last 3 years finally establishing it as a mainstream first line treatment for musculoskeletal pain relief and rehabilitation:
- The International Association for the Study of Pain for myofascial pain syndrome
- The American Physical Therapy Association for Achilles tendonitis
- The World Health Organisation (Bone and Joint Task Force) for neck pain
- The Lancet for neck pain
- The BMJ sports medicine journal for frozen shoulder.
WALT has played a critical role in establishing treatment guidelines and holding this forum for clinicians and academics to present papers, exchange information and network. This years congress will celebrate the success and build momentum with higher standards of clinical research presentations than ever before.
THOR Training Courses
LLLT works best when you treat in the right place with the right "dose". if you over treat then you may be inhibiting repair and you don't want that do you? Remember, Tumilty's systematic review of LLLT on tendinopathies found that 55% of studies failed or were inconclusive. Get yourself trained to be more successful and reduce the risk of making your patients worse.
