The study concluded that HILT high-energy laser therapy combined with exercise is a Effective in increasing neck range of motion and reducing pain In patients with carotid disease (CS).
HILT laser therapy has analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects by affecting nerve structures and improving circulation.
Comparing HILT with ultrasound (US) and TENS therapy, it was observed better results functional in the HILT group. HILT therapy also demonstrates regenerative action on tissues. High intensity laser therapy (HILT) is a more effective than low-level laser therapy (LLLT) due to its greater tissue penetration capacity. Ultrasound therapy (US) and electrical current nerve stimulation (TENS) are also effective in relieving pain.
