ABSTRACT
This chapter presents a literature review of the most recent
studies on the application of low-level laser (or light) therapy
(LLLT) in tendon healing. The results published so far point to the
establishment of efficient non-invasive therapeutic approaches to
decrease the time taken by an injured tendon to go back to normality
and regain its full biomechanical properties. The outcomes of
these approaches depend on the laser parameters as well as the
application protocol parameters, which are not always same among
the several authors of the field.
