hilterapia™
The target of depth and the simplicity of the solution.
Many pathologies, caused by overload, traumas or degeneration affect deep-seated muscular, tendineal, and articular structures.
Until recently, it had been impossible to transfer to these structures a sufficient amount of Laser energy in order to simulate and heal them.
As a matter of fact, the transferred energy decreases as the light penetrates deeper and deeper, even exponentially.
Therefore, in order to deliver in-depth sufficient energy, it is necessary to light the surface with very high-energy doses.
Only this makes the usable fraction of energy that reaches deeper layers sufficient to stimulate the deep anatomical structures that are the target of the therapy.
Yet, high-energy doses means heating, and up to now no one has been able to devise a way to deliver such a high amount of energy without, at the same time, harming superficial tissues because of overheating.
Today this is possible thanks to the HILT pulse, patented in the USA.
The Hilterapia™ pulse based devices are HIRO 1.0 and HIRO 3.0, which are FDA approved .
The HILT pulse, emitted by a specific pulsed emission Nd:YAG (1064 nm) source, features very high peak power (in the kW range) which is emitted for a very short time.
During this very rapid energy transmission the deep layers are lighted through a packet of very high energy and intensity photons, while irradiated tissue never heats up over the thermal damage threshold.
Moreover, the time between one pulse and the following one is more than sufficient to assure the total dissipation of transmitted heat. In this way, heat doesn't accumulate and the temperature never reaches dangerous levels.
