Migraine Headache: My wife had migraine headaches for thirty years. Being a chiropractor, we had tried every sort of natural approach we could find to beat the headaches. Nevertheless, she had to eat every two hours to keep her blood sugar stable, and needed to take four ibuprofen capsules every night before bed in order to keep the headache at bay. After starting the laser and receiving the bite tabs, within 2–3 weeks she became free of migraine headaches and does not need to eat every two hours or take ibuprofen anymore.

Are Low Level Lasers safe?
Industry has been using laser diodes for years in such applications as bar code checkouts, CD players, laser printers, and laser pointers. The FDA has listed bio-stimulation lasers as non-significant risk (NSR) devices.
How Do Low Level Lasers work?
Pain results from trauma and/or cellular disruption, malfunction, or less than optimal cellular function. Healing and pain relief come with cellular normalization. Photons enable cells to perform optimally by stimulating them to initiate bio-chemical reactions which produce enzymes and usable energy. Read more about how lasers work.
Where can Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) be used?
Low Level Laser Therapy may be used anytime there is acute or chronic pain or inflammation. Users have reported successes when using low level laser therapy on: Arthritis, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Tennis Elbow, Whiplash, Headaches, Back and Shoulder Pain, TMD/TMJ, Burns, Cuts, Sprains, Colds and Cold Sores, and much more.
Have Low Level Lasers been scientifically studied and proven?
Low Level Lasers have been used worldwide for nearly 30 years. Over 2,000 studies have shown that low level lasers: reduce pain, promote faster healing, reduce inflammation, improve bone repair speed, relax muscles and muscle spasms, decrease swelling, enhance the immune system, and re-energize cell membranes.

What features should I look for in a quality Low Level Laser?
A unit should have both true laser and LED diodes, a consistent control power output via a computer-controlled, rechargeable power system. It should also have the ability to produce multiple energy levels and multiple wave lengths. All laser diodes should be polarized so as to energize the greatest number of cells. The laser energy should be pulsed to encompass all frequencies in the brain. The unit should be re-programmable. The unit should be reasonably priced — meaning a suggested retail price between $1,000 and $4,000 per laser device. Click here for laser comparison chart.
