Low level laser therapy and it’s effects on different musculoskeletal conditions

This Musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions are a major contributing factor in disability. This becomes more challenging as the world population is witnessing an increase in geriatric population. Various treatment strategies are being researched to provide the most effective and non-invasive approach. To...
