Treatment Plans
Anodyne therapy is a unique light therapy used for the treatment of pain. This infrared therapy effectively brings pain relief without the use of drugs and is non-invasive. It does this by harnessing the healing power of infrared light. Infrared light emits wave lengths of energy and it can penetrate up to 5cm into the body.
Because there is no electrical current or deep heat associated with this device, Anodyne may be used safely with metal implants, pins and screws, pacemakers and defibrillators.
WSPT is an authorized Anodyne Therapy Care Center.
