Laser acupuncture is a procedure that stimulates acupoints using laser light.

Traditional acupuncture utilises needles; however, laser acupuncture achieves the same effects through laser wavelengths.

Traditional acupuncture will not attract those who are needle-phobic. Laser acupuncture is a painless treatment, which is a better option.

The laser light penetrates the skin to improve blood circulation and activates the body’s natural healing power. Since this treatment is non-invasive so it reduces the risk of bleeding and infection.

Compared to the time of traditional acupuncture (20-30 mins), the time of laser acupuncture is much less (a few seconds for each acupoint). Besides, the laser acupuncture tip is reusable and the practitioner could clean it easily. It is a targeted treatment and it is more precise.

Laser acupuncture is effective in treating chronic pain, musculoskeletal disorders, stress & anxiety, hay fever, etc. Dr John has a special interest in laser acupuncture pain management. He wants his patient to know more about “Endorphins”:

The role of Endorphins in our body are natural painkillers. Laser acupuncture promotes the release of endorphins, which could alleviate pain.

雷射針灸是一種使用雷射刺激穴位的手術。

傳統針灸使用針頭； 然而雷射針灸透過雷射波長達到相同的效果。

傳統針灸並不吸引那些害怕針的人。 雷射針灸是一種較爲無痛治療，是更好的選擇。

雷射穿透皮膚以改善血液循環並激活身體的自然治癒能力。由於這種治療是非侵入性的，因此可以降低出血和感染的風險。

與傳統針灸的時間（20-30分鐘）相比，雷射針灸的時間要少得多（每個穴位幾秒鐘）。 此外，雷射針灸頭可重複使用，操作者可以輕鬆清潔。這是針對性的治療，所以比較精準。

雷射針灸可有效治療慢性疼痛、肌肉骨骼疾病、壓力和焦慮、花粉症等。

約翰醫師對雷射針灸疼痛治療特別感興趣。 他希望他的病人多認識「內啡肽」：內啡肽在我們體內的作用是天然止痛藥。 雷射針灸可促進內啡肽的釋放，進而減輕疼痛。 希望以上解釋對您有幫助。
