treatment using low level laser therapy
نویسنده
چکیده
Lymphoedema Service, Wolverhampton; Module Leader of Lymphoedema Degree at Compton Hospice and Trainer and Director of Leduc UK Laser has been used for the management of lymphoedema and other conditions for many years. Since attending the Australasian conference in Adelaide in 2002, laser treatment has appealed to the author as an adjunctive therapy. Due to the absence of the UK ‘CE’ mark, it could not be introduced to practice within an NHS setting. Gaining CE registration in 2008 provided the opportunity for laser therapy to be introduced as an adjuvant treatment within Wolverhampton Lymphoedema Service (WLS).
