Dr. Oz Show Cold Laser Therapy

Watch Dr. Oz as he delve into a no-pills way to relieve pain.

[@moehoward8691]

The actual name for this kind of laser treatment is known as Low Level Laser Therapy. The term cold simply means it does not create heat.

[@jesseberry7521]

I have FM and it's excruciating I couldn't even move my shoulders before this stuff I love it

[@SunshineSurfsup1]

Glad you are pain-free, and thanks for sharing your experience.

[@Grasklipparmannen]

Thanks for good information on this method! Neck pain keeps me away from office jobs and any information truly valuable

[@annap1191]

Can this be used on patients who have had a cervical fusion?

[@nicolemccowen577]

Yes

[@vio19848]

I suffer chronic sciatica all down my back to my toes. Today I got the cold Lazer treatment today and it was successful in relieving my pain and being able to walk with balance.

[@silverfullbuster9177]

Really. Is it more effective than red light therapy

[@nitinbahwal379]

Hi Can you please update about the results so far. I have chronic L4-L5 disc bulge (7years) and now I'm diagnosed with sacroillitis. My PT has suggested for cold laser therapy. Please share your experience.

[@blessedgirly7402]

@@silverfullbuster9177 It seems to be way better. Here is a DR. that has videos that are more in depth. i am looking into this for myself.

[@peturssp]

Pain is a complex condition. Yes, with LLLT, it helps. However, it's best to provide direct contact with LLLT units, as this contributes to the trigger point effect. Also, NO to any chiropractic manipulations that involve HVTs (high velocity thrusts). As there are safer and more effective alternatives. This is a complex issue! More to discuss. Phil Petursson, Registered Health Practitioner (New Zealand)

[@Joe-xf7nr]

Phil. you are saying that trigger point massage needs to be applied at the same time the unit is running of before or after??

[@annschwankhaus3735]

I went to a chiropractor who used the Pulstar system. Great results with none of the typical back "cracking" technique. Also, I had this cold laser therapy on my ankle tendonitis and planter fasciitis. Really helped.

[@Arbelola]

If the disc isn't inflaming, then what is inflaming?

[@lazydays7470]

I was treated by a chiro for a bad head cold using the same device as shown in the video. First he used "applied kinesiology" to determine the resonant frequency of the cold organism . I was infected with 3 different organisms. He had me sit in a lounge chair with eye protection on and set the laser frequency to match the frequency of the organisms, using one frequency, then a second and the third, for 10 minutes each. As the treatment proceeded I could feel the cold losing it's grip on me. The tightness released and congestion stopped and I walked out of the office with the cold completely gone and it did not come back. The problem for me was that the cost is based on the number of minutes of treatment and I was charged $600. For that I will suffer the cold. At some point, as this technique becomes more widely known, I hope the cost will drop so people could pay a reasonable fee for the treatment.

[@Subfightr]

Re read your diagnostic statement, that doesn't sound like the silliest thing you've ever heard?

[@hoong7359]

i use vantros brand lllt device. very effective.

[@moehoward8691]

The person treating you seems more focused on money. Frequency specificity is not always important. He or she was taking advantage of you. We treat colds with nutrition mainly and might use laser over the sinuses. Colds do not disappear after a single treatment if it is truly a cold ( which is a virus )but viruses usually take a while. Our office charges $45 per session.

[@jeyagovindaraju471]

Does anyone know whta model is the cold laser device used by the chiropractor in this video? Thk You!

[@jamessohol1823]

Cold laser has got rid of my neck pain, now my Chiropractor is working on my Si Joint, im thinking of buying on of these hand held ones on ebay? My chiropractic uses Erchonia mfg, which cost thousands of dollars? I think i can get a hand held unit for $500? These things work, my neck is all better!

[@Joe-xf7nr]

Please post the brand name and type of this laser

[@bearron]

I had a brochure. Can remember the brand name but the cost was 13k about in 2012.

[@MA-tz4qq]

Look up cold therapy laser.

[@goovialisticprofunks]

Anyone know if it can beak down internal scar tissue? I have internal scar tissue around my finger tendons. Thanks. 🙏

[@antonunltd3713]

Foods part was great

[@snickerzzzb.m9276]

Hi, could this help CTS?

[@bearron]

Love that laser machine down the sides of my legs. Neck, not so much. Try a Ultra Tens combo unit. Fantastic on my neck. Legs, not so much. Been drinking cherry juice for many years for gout pain in my big toe.

[@SirBobMarley1]

Gout can I suggest use 100mls apple cider vinegar 3 x day for 1 week 1/2 hr before you eat, think of your car as you the fuel tank has impurities that over time your fuel filter and engine oil filter get clogged up to the maxs our bodies are no different, because our bodies we cannot change out our filtration system been our liver & kidneys the apple cider Vinegar strips out all the toxics our a very short time eg 1 week this reset all your bodies internals as medication does nothing, I did this I loss 200mm or 8 inches around my waist in 4 days my weight I lost a few kgs what I lost was all the toxics in my body and the gout was the 1st thing I notice it works and I will do the apple cider Vinegar every 3 months to get rid of any toxics build up in my body before and gout gets a change to build up over time.

[@bethymears2648]

Can be used for dropping a person's temperature. When they have fever. It was an old treatment for the black plague. They had never treated the Disease. They had only treated the high Temperature. Who were the only people who survived.

[@tetricko]

will cold lazer therapy work for long thoracic nerve injury?

[@moehoward8691]

It can if it is used in conjunction with other therapies. If the problem is a long standing one, it can take a month or two of regular treatments.

[@moehoward8691]

What is a long thoracic nerve. No such term in my medical books.

[@tetricko]

@@moehoward8691 long thoracic nerve is the nerve that innervate the serratus anterior muscle with it being damaged you get shoulder pain and winging scapula.

[@exgenica]

I'm surprised the therapist claims "No side-effects" at about 04:45. From what I've read and been told about LASER treatment and LASER safety, side-effects are possible. Some can be temporary and some can be permanent. They are dependent on a number of factors and the more powerful the LASER beam(s) the more risks are involved. Occurence and severity of these side-effects can depend on training of the practitioner, LASER power, energy density (e.g. beam focus/distance can affect this), instantaneous beam exposure time, cumulative beam exposure time, beam wavelength, damaged or improperly calibrated equipment, and more. Eye damage (permanent retinal damage even from indirect/reflected LASER light (this can happen with improper use of safety glasses, damaged or no safety glasses, wrong wavelength glasses, counterfeit safety glasses (a known problem on internet sales websites, and more) Tissue burns Mild Erythema: a skin rash from inflamed capillaries. Temporary intermittent localized burning sensation Temporary localized numbness Increased pain (a number of pain treatments have the potential to actually increase pain)

[@moehoward8691]

I've been using a class 3B gallium arsenide super pulsed laser for about 16 years and have never seen any negative side effects. Because it is pulsed it won't damage the area being treated. As far as causing eye damage..the simple answer is not to shine it in your eyes or those of the patient. Since most treatments with this instrument are done while contacting the area being treated, it is unlikely that eye damage will take place. Among my colleague who use laser in their offices, I have heard of no reports of eye damage. If the user is properly trained, no problems are likely to happen.

[@brianmcdonnell6476]

I have never heard of anyone making someone stare into a cold laser beam. Welding can blind you. Working with harsh chemicals can blind you. Only doctors are allowed to apply a medical device to a injury.

[@visionsmagazineonlin]

Cherry didnt work 4 me. Papaya nada. Tahini have not tried yet.

[@tonysorice5142]

i have L4 L5 S1 herniation bulged disc ,will this fix the problem or just temporary relief,,thank you,

[@realitycheck3672]

I have the same injuries as well as a damaged multifidus muscle and an annular tear in my L5 disc. You need nerve blocker injections and then acupuncture, physio etc…

[@moehoward8691]

It helped mine . Took a couple of months but it worked.

[@Patriotman54]

What are some of the best companies or model to use at home? Can this be used for trigger finger?

[@moehoward8691]

You have to be a licensed health care practitioner to buy the good ones.

[@moehoward8691]

There are no professional grade lasers to use at home unless it is by prescription from a health care professional. If you want want one that works, they cost thousands of dollars.

[@intoxicviii]

Works for me

[@swetapandhi2057]

I want cold laser device for my Patient so do you suggest me how can I buy this?

[@prashantdeshpande2747]

[@johannerodrigue9005]

Hi, is it possible to buy this device in Quebec / Montreal Canada???

[@t.h.nguyen5193]

It is class 3 or 4 laser so you may need a medical prescription to obtain it. Ask your doctor to write a one unless you're a medical professional.

[@fgv101]

Any know: Can this work on post op scar tissue/adhesion pain?

[@moehoward8691]

The laser can. It can take a while though, so you have to be patient. I've been using lasers in my clinic for over 15 years with good results.

[@jesseberry7521]

MedicaRe and Medicaid need to pay for this for people with FM or arthritis

[@johannerodrigue9005]

Do we need somene to do it for us or we can do it our selves...?

[@Iraqveteran-ke6qu]

You can do it yourself. Look for spooky2.

[@Pain59579]

Smg 3 to 5 times anything temp especially with light lllt led infared etc you have to do it all the time if you continue to do same thing.

[@gilbertramirezpt]

Funny they are using a laser without eye protection?

[@michalkapic3884]

No need eye protection if cold laser is class 3 and lower.

[@DomerLaser]

Yes, not all laser therapy device requires the eye protection, Class 3B laser is not. This is our class 3B laser, total 660mW, it is good choice for the home use. healthcaremarts.com/products/low-level-laser-therapy-device-hand-held

[@peturssp]

Laser (low laser) penetrates the tissues, any other light reflected from tissues is diffuse. Therefore, eye protection is not readily required. However, it is helpful to make the patient feel assured. Regards, Phil Petursson, Registered Health Practitioner/ Certified Laser Therapist, New Zealand

[@OldWorldMethod]

@@michalkapic3884 Correction, class 1 lasers are the only ones that do not require glasses.. All other lasers classified as 2, 3, and 4, require glasses. Safety precautions for the class 2 is only for prolonged viewing.

[@carolinemacrae6227]

I 2ish I could afford a cold laser device because I have morgellons disease and the drs tell me to take pain killers all the time when I'm in pain.

[@RobertLongM]

What about Torn Ligaments?

[@thomasvanpetten9835]

complete tear needs surgery. Lasers done afterward will help recover faster. In partial tears it will help as well to supplement rehab.

Not every chiro does that. Yours might be an exception not the rule :)

Did you treatment the Fibromyalgia by laser therapy？

[@Holypikemanz]

fibromyalgia means painful muscles.Its not a diagnosis its a symptom. Fibro is lyme disease.

Lyndsay Olson Fibromyalgia Warrior girl are you sure you have that I had 2 doctors tell me I had fibromyalgia and they are stupid. I work out ....combat sports... run... box jumps. I sleep with 3 pillows by mistake watching tv. I have possible endometriosis with pmdd so around rag my body hurts waist down so I have different things but definitely not fibromyalgia. I know someone that really does have it and can’t work. Loss of hair. Sick Sick looks anorexic. Be sure because I seriously had doctors write it on my chart but if u do do infared therapy at tanning salon where do you live as electric sun has power capsule I do it and fuk relieves all body pain and inflammation while weight loss and wrinkles off but you have to go 4 to 5 days week x 40 min

[@peturssp]

@@Holypikemanz Fibromyalgia is a complex pain syndrome, that involves several variables. Mostly, psychological and physical stress, physiological trigger points, scar tissue, increased sympathetic uptake of nervous system, etc. Regards, Phil Petursson, Health Pracititioner New Zealand

[@moehoward8691]

I've been using lasers for years and I have never heard it called cold therapy. These guys are amateurs.

[@phakwipha]

I use cold laser with good results... you cannot just apply to any area to get the results you have to treat the hot spot , the area that gives immediate results, this is difficult to explain, it requires thorough knowledge of myofascial connections and the relationship between areas of the body. for example the neck can be treated with points on the wrist or ankle shoulder or hips and in between this is why you have to find a therapist that knows how to use these things... i have found the correct point to use will feel like a needle being inserted most of the time when she says she doesn't feel a thing, i would look elsewhere for the hot spot to treat her pain
