Laser Therapy For Knee Meniscal Tears

One of the most common and debilitating knee injuries is meniscal cartilage tears. The majority of patients suffering from meniscal cartilage tears are not surgical candidates but can be helped with Laser Therapy (photobiomodulation therapy or PBMT). PBMT when applied with optimal wavelengths, dosage and accurate location can increase circulation, decrease pain and inflammation and most importantly, accelerate healing and regeneration of cartilage. Join BIOFLEX’s Medical Director, Dr. David Kunashko for an in-depth review of the mechanisms of PBMT for treating knee meniscal cartilage tears including peer reviewed RCTs, treatment plans and approaches using BIOFLEX professional Laser Therapy devices. Other forms of evidence based treatment will also be discussed including platelet rich plasma, stem cell and drug injections and physical therapy.
