How deep does the Nanobeam 940 near-infrared light penetrate?
This depends on the type of cellular structure the beam must pass through to reach the afflicted region. The intensity is reduced exponentially as it penetrates into deep tissue, so the deeper the injury, the weaker the intensity of the near-infrared light. This isn’t a problem since extending the time of treatment allows sufficient light energy to reach the desired area to cause the desired effect. Treatment of hip joint pain is possible with the Nanobeam 940.
