Class IV laser therapy is the latest development in laser technology today. Derived from the first theory by Albert Einstein written in 1916, laser therapy was later improved upon in 1967, when a professor of medicine found that with low intensity laser light, quicker wound healing occurred. The most commonly used laser today is the diode laser, which was made available to modern society through its low cost and was introduced in the 1970s.

Lower back sciatica is quite painful and originates from your sciatic nerve, the longest nerve in the body. The pain extends from your spine to your hip and posterior area and then down the rear of each leg. While not a separate condition itself, sciatica is symptomatic of yet another problem, such as a herniated disc or another cause. Although lower back sciatica may ease with time, it may not, and the discomfort is usually quite debilitating.

A UTI is an infection of the urinary tract. While it is painful, it is usually not overly serious and is easily treated. The urinary tract becomes infected when bacteria is introduced into the tract. The most common cause of a urinary tract infection is from bacteria that lives in your digestive tract and is tranferred to your urethra. Once this bacteria enters the urethra, it travels upwards and can cause infection in the urinary tract or bladder. Sexual intercourse is a common cause of UTI’s because during sexual activity, bacteria is moved from the vaginal area into the urethra. Another cause of UTI’s is waiting too long to urinate. This causes your bladder to weaken, in which case it may not empty completely and some urine will be left in the bladder. This will increase your chance of a urinary tract infection.

Bacteria live inside the colon that help breakdown the food further so that it can be turned into feces. We know that the waste is passed through the colon and goes on out. Sometimes, this process is not as thorough as one would want and old waste gets caked inside the colon.
