[url]http://www.omegalaser.co.uk/testimonials.html[/url]
I introduced laser into my practice in 1989 and continue to be amazed at the results, here follows a few testimonials from a selection of patients.
As a PE teacher I was really concerned when a hospital X-ray indicated that I had sustained ligament damage and a chipped bone in my ankle. I started laser treatment on my injury within 24 hours of it happening, and noticed a discernible difference within 2 days. When I returned to the Accident and Emergency recall surgery 10 days later, the doctor was really impressed at the recovery I had made. I played volley-ball at an International level, and physical health is still crucial to my career. I would say that the laser treatment reduced my expected healing time at least by half and although I hope I never get a debilitating injury ever again, if I do, I will be phoning the Ashdown Clinic
Jean McLeod, Glasgow
After having months of treatment for various leg ulcers from my doctors and nurses, they were not responding. I was referred to Ashdown Clinic, where I received laser treatment. This was successful, and the ulcers were completely healed.
Mr Storey, Hertfordshire
As an active sportsman, I have appreciated the benefits of early laser treatment to quicken the healing of sprains, strains and other injuries I have suffered. It was so good to feel the tingle on the skin and the warm glow spreading throughout the site of the injury, bring within it the relief from pain and the tremendous psychological uplift of knowing that the rapid promotion of healing would enable me to return to my sports as quickly as possible. I have not suffered any long term aches and pains, and I am extremely grateful to the Ashdown Clinic for introducing me to this treatment.
Neil Herrington, Hertfordshire
My knee was giving me trouble for about a year, I was contemplating surgery. Cortisone failed, laser worked.
Dr Pullon, Hertfordshire (Retired GP)
From the healing point of view, excellent!
Eileen Adams, London
I have been experiencing Achilles tendon problems, which affected my running for over 10 years, and had received various different treatments during this period; with limited success, however after an intensive series of laser treatments the thickening of the tendons had gone completely as have the "sore spots". I have had no further recurrence of the problem and have been able to train normally (well as much as bringing up a 4 years old will allow)

FDA Approves Low-Level Laser for Wide-Use Pain Relief
[url]http://www.emaxhealth.com/82/2427.html[/url]Mesa, Arizona based Erchonia announces the Food and Drug Administration's (FDA) approval of the PL 5000(TM) laser to use for pain relief in patients suffering from chronic and acute pain. The laser, which is used by Lance Armstrong and the U.S. postal team on the Tour de France, has been proven through extensive testing to significantly reduce the level of pain symptomatic with a number of ailments.
Use of the PL 5000(TM) laser has become widespread amongst the athletic community. Pro golfers such as Steve Jones use the laser as part of their regular physical therapy treatments between tournaments. Bob Watson of Major League Baseball recently started using the PL 5000(TM) for pain management. In a recent letter to the president of Erchonia, Watson wrote, "I am so impressed with the laser, and its healing properties, I am now recommending it to my family, friends and business associates."
The impact of this revolutionary new type of treatment is no more evident than in the world of endurance athletics. Anyone who runs, bikes, hikes or swims experiences pain at some point, usually in the knees, back and shoulders. The PL 5000(TM) has taken the endurance world by storm as a safe and extremely effective treatment for pain management and as a permanent treatment method.
The PL 5000(TM) is the first and only low-level laser approved for use in reducing pain. By contrast to the high-power, high-heat lasers that are used in various surgical procedures, Erchonia lasers produce a low-level, or cold, output that has no thermal effect on the body's tissue. Instead, the laser serves to stimulate biological function positively. Low-level laser therapy is commonly used to treat conditions such as acute and chronic pain in a number of medical areas without negative side effects.

Low Energy Laser Sport Laser LLLT Device
[url]http://www.healiohealth.com/tek9.asp?pg=products&specific=jpkqenr8[/url]Low Energy Laser Sport Laser LLLT Device is a handheld, battery-operated, noninvasive, light-emitting, medical device. Approved by the FDA for sale and use in the treatment of a variety of soft and connective tissue disorders as well as certain neurological disorders, this device is a low energy laser also known as a “cold laser.” In contrast to general surgical or cosmetic lasers that produce heat and thermo-destructive laser energy, Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) produces no harm to human tissue in normal use and thus is classified by the FDA as a Class IIIB medical device. Cold lasers used in LLLT have been in medical use for over 30 years and have a long record of successful clinical studies demonstrating medical efficacy and safety. The Sport Laser produces infrared (invisible) laser light at the 830 nm wavelength via three LASER diodes. A fourth visible LED (Light-Emitting Diode) is used to provide a visible red target light field for the clinician to target the desired tissue area. As a noninvasive contact medical device, the Sport Laser is completely portable, very easy to operate and provides reliable and effective treatment options to the clinician and patient.
What the Sport Laser does?
Through the action of photo-stimulation of light reactive biological receptors (chromophores) in the body, Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) has demonstrated the ability to significantly accelerate and enhance the body’s natural defense and repair components in the presence of injury, inflammation and certain disease processes. By modifying the effects and limiting the duration of inflammation as well as enhancing specific repair and healing processes, LLLT is consistent in providing pain relief, reducing injury damage and loss of function, in addition to facilitating more rapid repair and stronger healed tissue structures. Multiple clinical studies have noted the following results of LLLT:
Increased collagen production
Enhanced nerve regeneration
Increased vasodilation
Reduced inflammatory duration
Increased cell metabolism
Increased pain threshold
Increased cell membrane potential
Reduced edema magnitude
Increased microcirculation
Increased tissue and bone repair
Increased lymphatic response
Increased enzyme response
How this Low Energy Laser or LLLT Device works?
As the light receptive chromophores in various tissues, in both cellular and sub-cellular locations, are irradiated with coherent laser light, energy transfers occur that stimula more active levels of function and increased interaction. Laser light, penetrating much deeper than other light wave forms, activates increased mitochondrial ATP synthesis, produces increased mast cell inflammatory mitigation and stimulates increased Ca2+ ion presence and beneficial reactive oxygen species (ROS) production.
Through the action of photo bio-stimulation, oxidative metabolism is increased via cytochrome C oxidase and photosensitization of hemoglobin. Laser irradiation stimulates increased endorphin release and increased prostaglandin synthesis. Due to the powerful effect photo-stimulated enzymes exert, both localized and systemic cascade reactions occur that result in immunomodulation and inflammatory mitigation. Damaged skeletal, connective and neurological tissues and structures react with enhanced healing in the presence of low energy laser irradiation as collagen synthesis and production, satellite cell presence and cellular metabolism are increased as a result of the light stimulation and improved vascular, lymphatic and enzymatic activity.
Low energy laser, a class of medical lasers, sometimes referred to as soft lasers or cold lasers is the emerging therapeutic modality in the healing arts community. However, the scientific facts support and point to the unique wavelength and power used by the Sport Laser devices as the most effective combination to provide superior therapeutic benefit in any number of conditions.
FDA Clearance:
The Sport Laser therapeutic laser system, utilizing the battery powered model Sport Laser device and the 110 AC powered LLLT device, has received FDA clearance for a wide range of medical uses. These include:
Adjunctive use in the relief of hand and wrist pain associated with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.
Relief of muscle and joint pain.
Arthritis
Muscle spasm
Relief of stiffness
Promotion of muscle relaxation

Sport Injuries Can Be Successfully Managed with Low Level Laser Therapy
[url]http://laserforskning.com/012.html[/url]In the era of growing importance of sport in the life of self-confident women and men, the logical consequence is the growing incidence of sport injuries. In the search for new and more efficient treatment methods, low level laser therapy (LLLT) placed itself on a high ranked position due to its positive therapeutic results with lower rate of injury recurrence. However, it is necessary to have knowledge about the background of the injury as well as the best LLLT procedure due to be applied.
Case Report
Male patient, 44 years of age, businessman, practiced bodybuilding on a daily basis, diagnosed right-sided epicondylitis lateralis (tennis elbow). He was forced to sustain from the bodybuilding because of painful extension and rotation of the right forearm. He completed a session of 12 classic physiotherapeutic procedures (electrotherapy, supersonic vibrations, etc.), got two corticosteriod injections in the painful site, but without significantly positive result. He was disappointed, depressed and suspicious towards new treatment modality (laser therapy) that has been recommended to him by an orthopedist. Patient refused to refrain from other physical activities except the bodybuilding. During the course of LLLT sessions, he suffered three direct mechanic traumas on the painful elbow and was forced to interrupt the treatment for 9 days due to his professional commitments. He completed 18 LLLTs, reporting pain free elbow at the end of the last treatment. Patient was advised to refrain from training for a week after the last LLLT, and to initiate the training with small weights that should be gradually increased. Five years after LLLT, patient is still pain free.

“I use the Theralase laser to keep my throwing arm healthy. It reduces fatigue and allows me to play at my peak game after game after game.”
James Blake
Ranked #14 professional tennis player in the world in 2007
“I had to withdraw from the Rogers Masters in Montréal due to a severe abdominal muscle strain. For the next two weeks, I had two laser treatments per day with the Theralase 1000 cluster laser, which accelerated the tissue healing and reduced the pain. In the next two tournaments I was runner-up at the Western & Southern Financial Group Masters at Cincinnati and I then clinched the Pilot Pen Tennis at New Haven. Theralase laser treatments were very helpful in accelerating my recovery time.”
Johnny Grey
Four time Olympian and Medalist (800 meter track and field event)
“The laser helped my pulled quad before racing. Not having the Theralase therapeutic medical laser system for treatment is like Superman forgetting to put on his cape.”
Joe Douglas
Santa Monica Track Club Coach
“The Theralase therapeutic medical laser system is one of the best therapies for rehabilitation of athletes that I have ever used. It has helped a lot of my athletes.”
Claudette Groenendaul
Two time National US Champion (800 meter track and field event)
“My lower back felt like a big block and I used to hobble around, now with the TheralaseTM therapeutic medical laser system treatments, my back feels so good that I forget about it.”
Glen Telfer
Investment Advisor
“Twelve years ago I was rear ended in a car accident. The whiplash that resulted caused my neck to stiffen over time. I found it difficult to turn my neck from side to side when I drove and to look up at the ball when I served in tennis. A business associate gave me the TheralaseTM patient pamphlet, which described the conditions that the Theralase TM can treat, how safe the TheralaseTM laser is and how effective the laser TheralaseTM laser is. When I read the pamphlet, I learned that not only could I get my injured neck treated, but also the pain from arthritis that was starting in my fingers and knees. From the time that I was treated with the TheralaseTM laser, the pain in my fingers had subsided. After the second or third treatment, turning my neck became more supple and workable. By the sixth treatment, I had no trouble looking up at the tennis ball when I served and most importantly, I felt a lot safer when I drove, because I could turn my neck from side to side. I would strongly recommend the TheralaseTM laser treatment to someone who is suffering from pain stiffness and restricted movement as a result of whiplash, arthritis or strenuous activity.”
Randy Bruder
Business Manager
“During a snowmobile accident in December 2002, I fractured my scaphold (wrist) bone. Initially, my wrist was wrapped in tensors. After 6 weeks, the wrist continued to be very sore and was put in a cast for another 6 weeks. Following the removal of the cast, x-rays showed that the bone had healed beautifully, but the pain had not subsided. Light exercises did not help much. I had lost mobility of the hand and I could not do a single push-up. When accidentally, I put my hand under my pillow, in my sleep, I awoke from excruciating pain. The prognosis I got from the doctors was that it normally takes one year for the scaphoid bone to heal.
In September of 2003, a friend suggested that I speak to Theralase, who use a low level laser therapy in their clinic to reduce pain and promote the healing of fractured bones. Even though I had to drive from Brampton to Markham (60 km) I decided to try this non –invasive, non thermal treatment. After the 3rd or 4th treatment, I started to be able to bend my wrist back. After the 10th treatment, I had regained 90% of the mobility of my wrist. Each treatment was not longer than 5 to 10 minutes and there was absolutely no sensation of heat or discomfort, while I was being treated.
It is now 3 months since I completed the treatments. I have started my regular activities including my push-ups. I wish I had started the treatments sooner, because I would not have suffered the pain and lack of mobility of my wrist for so long. I am also told that the healing would have been faster if I had my laser treatments started sooner after the cast was removed. I fully recommend the Theralase low level laser treatment to anyone who has suffered a bone fracture and who continues to be in pain and loss of mobility after the cast has done its job.”

“About 12 years ago I fell coming down some steps. As a result of the fall, I dislocated my left shoulder and fractured my lower humerus. The shoulder was splinted from the top of the fingers to the top of the shoulder. After the splint was removed, I had a great amount of physiotherapy and even acupuncture, but the shoulder continued to be achy. I found it difficult to rest my weight on my arm when I sat at my desk. I constantly felt like I carried a 100 lb. weight on my shoulder. I endured the pain and discomfort for 12 years, until recently.
A few months ago, a friend suggested I should try Theralase low level laser therapy. After a consultation with their Chiropractor and Physiotherapist, I received 6 treatments with 905 nm, 100 mW near infrared laser at the Theralase Pain and Arthritis Centre. By the 6th treatment, my shoulder felt normal. There was absolutely no heat sensation or discomfort during the treatments and the treatments were only a few minutes long.
It has been a couple of month since my last treatment and my shoulder continues to feel just fine. The experience has been like a miracle.”
Mark Granic

“For the last 4 years I have been functioning at about 65% due to back pain. In the last 2 months, since going for laser treatments and therapy, I am back to about 90% already.
Dr. Hildebrand takes the time to really listen and assess the cause of the problem so that you get the maximum benefits from your treatments. Thanks to Theralase I have my life back again!”
Nancy Sullivan

“I feel compelled to let it be known how successful Laser Therapy has been in reducing swelling and pain of Osteo-Arthritis in my right hand and fingers.
During the past years, I have been prescribed many medications, none of which reduced the swelling and pain satisfactorily.
After four to five sessions of Laser Therapy, there was an extremely noticeable reduction in swelling. It was now almost pain free and because of the increased flexibility of my fingers, I was able to resume activities which for a long time had not been possible. The Laser Therapy sessions are quick and completely painless and do not have the dangerous side effects I had previously experienced with medications.
I recommend Laser Therapy without reservation.”
Henry Vandelinde, Ph. D.
“I suffered a brachial plexus injury as the result of a motorcycle accident 25 years ago. This injury separated the nerve cords that operate my right arm from my spine. The result was limb paralysis, amputation, and an enduring neuropathic pain that is best described as similar to having one’s missing arm in a red hot vice set at varying degrees of pressure.
“I lived with chronic paid until 3 years ago when after unsuccessfully trying every medication and treatment available, I started methadone therapy. It worked and it took the edge off the pain; unfortunately, it also took the edge off my life. I stabilized at 32 mgs per day, but the medication took its toll after a while. I was perpetually tired; I was constantly sick to my stomach; and the shine went from my life. I had little energy to do more than just sit.”
“Then 8 months ago, I discovered LILT therapy. After checking out several options, I eventually came under the care of Bodil at Dr. Thompson’s office. As a direct result of LILT therapy, my pain levels decreased to the point that I was able to discontinue the methadone. LILT therapy has let me get my life back. The pain levels are low enough to manage and I’m off the medications that were putting a blanket over the quality of my life.”
“I underwent LILT therapy as an experiment, and it worked, I encourage others who suffer chronic pain to try the same.

This Joint Is Jumping
来自附录一的第8页，对物理康复的强调：Even more than the OR, the physical- therapy clinic above Andrews's surgical practice represents the essence of his holistic approach. "Surgery is just an opportunity," he says. "Rehab is often more important." Regaining range of motion, strength, and endurance hinges on months, and sometimes years, of daily conditioning. That's why physical therapy chief Kevin Wilk is critical. Wilk, who has worked alongside Andrews for 19 years, is the yin to Andrews's yang, his easygoing, reflective demeanor ideally suited for helping Brees, McNabb, and others make the arduous journey from the operating room to the field.
