High Power Laser Therapy Auckland North Shore
Advanced 905nm Photobiomodulation at Movement Mechanics Osteopathy
At Movement Mechanics Osteopathy, we offer EMS DolorClast® High-Power Laser Therapy (905nm), a cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment designed to reduce pain, accelerate tissue healing, and restore movement faster.
As the first GDT-certified clinic in New Zealand integrating both shockwave therapy and high-power laser, we combine technology with clinical expertise to deliver evidence-based results for acute and chronic musculoskeletal conditions.



High-power laser therapy, also known as photobiomodulation therapy, uses pulsed 905nm light energy to penetrate deep into tissues and stimulate biological repair processes.
Unlike older low-level lasers, high-power systems:
-
Deliver greater depth of penetration
-
Provide higher energy density
-
Target muscle, tendon, ligament, and joint structures effectively
This allows us to treat both superficial and deep musculoskeletal conditions with precision.
How Does 905nm Laser Therapy Work?
Cellular Energy & Tissue Repair
The 905nm wavelength interacts with mitochondria to:
-
Increase ATP (cellular energy) production
-
Accelerate tissue regeneration
-
Improve cellular metabolism
Pain Reduction Mechanisms
High-power laser therapy helps reduce pain by:
-
Modulating nerve conduction velocity
-
Reducing inflammatory mediators
-
Stimulating endorphin release
Anti-Inflammatory Effects
Research demonstrates reductions in:
-
Prostaglandins (e.g. PGE2)
-
Cytokines linked to chronic inflammation
-
Local tissue oedema and swelling
