Chronic foot and ankle pain can interfere with your daily life — making it difficult to walk, exercise, work, or simply enjoy time with family. At Total Foot and Ankle in Enid, OK, we are proud to offer MLS Laser Therapy, an advanced, non-invasive treatment designed to reduce pain, accelerate healing, and restore mobility without surgery or medications.
If you are struggling with plantar fasciitis, tendonitis, arthritis, neuropathy, or sports injuries, MLS laser therapy may be the breakthrough solution you’ve been looking for.
What Is MLS Laser Therapy?
MLS stands for Multiwave Locked System. It is an FDA-cleared laser therapy that uses specific wavelengths of light energy to penetrate deep into damaged tissues. Unlike older laser technologies, MLS laser therapy delivers synchronized wavelengths that work together to:
- Reduce inflammation
- Relieve pain
- Accelerate tissue repair
- Improve circulation
- Decrease swelling
This dual-wavelength system allows for effective treatment without generating excessive heat, making it safe, comfortable, and highly effective.
How MLS Laser Therapy Works
MLS laser therapy works at the cellular level. The light energy stimulates mitochondria — the “power plants” of cells — increasing the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which fuels tissue repair and regeneration.
The result?
- Faster healing of injured tissues
- Reduced inflammatory chemicals
- Improved blood flow to damaged areas
- Decreased nerve sensitivity and pain signals
Many patients experience relief after just a few sessions.
