Class IV Laser Before Cold Plunge: Maximizing Penetration Through Vascular Preparation
Class IV Laser TherapyDry Cold Plunge
Cold water immersion induces vasoconstriction that may improve laser light penetration by reducing hemoglobin competition for photon absorption. However, recent evidence suggests laser therapy before cold plunge may be more beneficial for targeting deep tissue inflammation prior to cold-induced vascular changes.
