United Brachial Plexus Network, Inc.

Has anyone heard of this? We were watching American Hot Rod last night, and a kid on there had a lot of nerve damage to his face due to a car accident (has 6 metal plates in his head/face). He has been using cold laser therapy to help the nerves regenerate, and is having success. Before he was unable to smile or blink and had a hard time talking, but he is doing a lot better. Just wondering if anyone has ever heard of using it for a brachial plexus injury. Thanks!

YeahI saw that Mike has that, I was wondering what that was to, he claims it has help much more than the nerve graphing.

Had a look at one of the websites kindly linked in a post above, came across the quote above and at that point my brain went numb...anyone here have a clue what on earth the above might mean??? Or am I just being thick today...
