MLS^® Class IV Therapeutic Laser - M8

Feel the difference

With instant results in the majority of cases you really can feel the reduction in muscle spasm to make massage therapy easier

'' I was skeptical of the MLS initially, preferring shockwave, but on the first use I was blown away. My patients love it and it allows me to get patients pain free and exercising so much faster than shockwave as there is absolutely no pain. ''

Patrick Meyer, MOst, Hands On Wellbeing

''I had suffered with sciatica for around 18 months, trying many different treatments courses to ease the pain, but with no success. I was struggling to sleep and complete normal daily activities. My physio suggested laser therapy - I felt a marked improvement after the second treatment, with complete resolution of pain within five sessions. I now continue maintenance sessions once a month to keep it under control. Life is wonderful without sciatica!''

Rudi van Nes, Patient

''I've treated very nasty tendinoses and it has cut at least 3-4 weeks off resolution times. Having used MLS laser therapy, I would now consider it an essential piece of equipment- I wouldn't practice without it.''

Patrick Meyer, MOst, Hands On Wellbeing

I am a specialist MSK Physiotherapist and initially wondered just how good MLS Class IV laser treatment could actually be? Well I wonder no more, over 70 patients have used my laser machine, 95% have responded in a positive way and the results are usually seen after the first session.

M8

The M8 has innovative multi-target functionality, and includes multi diode applicator and standard handpiece. The robotised multi diode applicator allows for automatic treatment of large areas with 5 pre-set directions of movement. It can also be set to automatically treat smaller areas on fixed point application.

The robotised applicator and standard handpiece can be used simultaneously, allowing multiple areas of the body to be treated in one session.

The patented MLS® system delivers pulsed and continuous laser emissions synchronised for the optimal therapeutic effect with wavelengths of 808nm and 905nm. The advanced MLS® laser technology allows true pulsed emissions to achieve peak power of 75 watts, without the risk of thermal damage.
