Laser Therapy- Initial assessment required
Laser therapy promotes healing and helps speed the recovery process to inflamed or damaged tissues. Laser has the following effect:
* Inhibits the sensory nerve impulses associated with pain
* Decreases inflammatory cells
* Relaxes muscle spasm immediately
* Increases vascular supply and restores normal blood flow
* Provides energy for the cells within the tissue allowing them to repair.

The clinician will confirm if you have a verruca, and discuss treatment options. The verruca's overlying hard skin will be removed, making it more comfortable for you while you decide what treatment option you would like.
