Re: LILT therapy
Hi Henry....I'm planning to take my son down to Phoenix tomorrow to try the Laser therapy. Would you recommend that he spend a week there getting treatment? I guess there is a smaller version for patient use. Do you know anything about that? If you have a moment to chat...my # is 928-522-0692. The pain is driving my son (27) crazy and now he can't sleep. Sure hope this will help....Thanks, Michele

Re: LILT therapy
Bump for Michele...
Re: LILT therapy
Does this promote axonal growth and if so could it help an avulsed nerve if the concentration was at the root. Wouldn't that be something. Ifthat worked you would then have something to graft to.
