Introduction
Treatment with accelerates inflamed
tissue recovery, generates cells renewal and improves
micro-circulation.
Handy-Cure is a low-level laser therapy (LLLT) device
which combines low-level pulse laser radiation, pulsating
infrared radiation, visible red light, and static magnetic
fields. Together these radiances provide synergistic
therapeutic effects. Incorporating all these radiances
in one device has proven to achieve rapid and efficient
clinical effects within a relatively short time.
Handy-Cure is particularly effective in situations where
cell tissue has become inflamed. Cell tissue inflammation
is caused from reduced micro-circulation. The reduction
changes the quantity of blood supply to the cells,
resulting in ischemic injury. By reducing the ischemic
period, Handy-Cure reduces the disease duration and
accompanying pain.
Handy-Cure speeds up recovery and relief when
used alone or together with other medical therapeutic
modalities. It reduces the need for analgesic and anti
inflammatory medication.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
What will I feel during a treatment session?
Some people might feel a slight warming effect but usually people feel
nothing, which is good. Even though you may not feel anything during
treatment session, the laser light penetrates the tissue and does the
work.
How many treatments will I need?
This depends on the severity of your condition. The average treatment
ranges between 10 and 14 sessions. Many patients will experience
some relief of symptoms after 3 - 4 treatments and after several more
they will feel a significant improvement. It is important to remember
that everyone’s body is different, so keep treating until you feel relief.
Could my pain increase?
For a small number of people, due to increased blood flow, the pain
may increase after a few treatments. If so, stop and take a 3 day break
and then return to daily treatment. After a few treatments you will feel
relief.
Can the laser burn me?
No. Handy Cure is a class 1M laser device - the safest of all types of
laser.
