LASER is an acronym that stands for "Light Amplification by the Stimulated Emission of Radiation"
Yes, it is a light, albeit a very special light.
Why special? Well, it is a light made up of 'photons' (packets of light) that are identical to one another; in sunlight or the one from a bulb, a fire, etc. The light is made up of 'photons' of different families (different wavelengths), therefore all 'look' different; in laser light all are like clones of the same individual. Not only that but they all 'march' at the same pace and go exactly in the same direction.
The difference is like comparing the start of the New York marathon (in light from a fire) and contemplating a military parade of hundreds of thousands of clones (laser light). That gives this light all of its properties that normal lights do not have. Here is where the difference is and sets a LASER apart from all other types of light.
That is why it interacts with living matter as it does! That's the secret!
Besides being the difference when it illuminates living cells, it also allows it to be focused, directed and handled in a precise way. It does not lose intensity even traveling over very long distances; it stays as 'bright' in the end as in the beginning.
As if that wasn't enough, one more thing has to be pointed out: it produces no side-effects, except for those that heal and repair, and those we want to produce. It is totally harmless; 100% safe if handled properly.
If you want a more familiar example, it is very much the same way sunlight interacts with plants, giving them 'photonic energy' which is converted into 'chemical energy' in the process called 'photosynthesis'.
"Light converted into fuel to produce Life"
All of the above is not only a theory, but facts precisely described for more than 30 years in many European Research Centers based in many University settings. Many of the Pain Clinics in that continent have based much of their approach to pain (acute or chronic) in this technology.
