I am considering buying a laser and would like to know if a nonpulsed laser can be as effective as pulsed laser? Also can a 40mw 650nm laser be effective for...
Steve, Pulsed and non pulsed have completely different effects on tissue. So you can't say that one is not effective or the other is. It depends on what you...
Red lasers will not penetrate into tissue. The higher wavelength, the more penetration you will have, with around 900 nm being optimum. With lasers, there...
Thank you Dr Gerry for the excellent information. At this point I have access to a laser that can adjust power from 10-40mw and is 650nm. No frequency...
Ok, for everything but deep tissue healing. According to the literature... Buddy ... -- Thanks, Dr. Buddy Touchinsky Blue Mountain Family Chiropractic 1209...
Then why do companies like Erchonia promote deep tissue healing using 5mw 635nm and get results (Olympics athletes etc.) Just trying to understand all of this....
Because they are trying to justify their expensive machine, which is really nothing more than a laser pointer you can buy at radioshack for $20. Check those...
Buddy, Although I choose not to own an Erchonia laser, it is a fairly good laser, not the best, but fairly good. Your statement that it is nothing more than a...
A chiropractor friend of mine who is trying out an Erchonia 5mw 635nm PL4000 just informed me that that he is seeing excellent results on all kinds of deep...
Steve, So glad this communication forum is helpful. That's what we want to be. This week, I've been working with a lady who had a stroke. She suffered it on...
Steve, You are correct when you say that LLLT is confusing. The concept that all light therapy works on the same principle is the problem. High power infrared...
Wow Jennifer! That is really phenomenal. This gives hope for many stroke victims who cannot be helped my the standard medical procedures/medication. On another...
Steve, The LazrPulsr has been utilized by many in the place of tapping and it works many times better than tapping. I will caution that you should not use...
Hi Gerry, I've read your web page and it's great info. So 5w 635nm will induce/stimulate deep tissue healing according to what I just read. It makes sense in...
Thanks for that post Jennifer. I agree proper nutrition is a key to healing. A little off topic but have any of you used CES such as the Alphastim/Sota BT7 etc...
Hi Steve! I don't have time to look right now, but I "think" I posted some interesting links for different Frequency charts, some to kill pathogens, and...
I have noticed that some lasers on the market (635nm healing lasers) use a dot and some lasers use a line. I have heard it said that if you are using a 5mw...
Hi Steve! I don't know the answer to this question.... Hoping someone with laser manufacturing wisdom will give some insight to this question. Health, Hope,...
Hi Steve, Your logic is correct. Many manufacturers state the output power as per the laser diode they are using. Thus a 5mw Sanyo diode operating at it's...
Hi Jennifer, Steve and everyone, I thought I would try and help with the line vs dot question with some of the equations as to how this is worked out being the...
One thing is for sure Sean. You are a genius. I don't know if I will every completely understand what you have so eloquently said but I now know there is more...
Thank you for the answer Kerry. So how much power would be needed to come within a true 5mw with a 635nm line generating (no pulse) laser if you are treating a...
Hi Steve, Could I ask you to clarify what you are trying to achieve with the 5mW output in relation to large muscle groups and also just so that I am correct ...
This is what I was getting at. My chiropractor friend has the Erchonia 635nm 5mw line laser and is seeing good results with it's minimal .6mw at the aperture...
Hi Steve, Thanks for the clarification. To reiterate the issue of output power.... If you have 5mW at the aperture.... You will still have 5mW at the tissue...
Sean, Is it safe to say that clinicians using lasers by waving them over a large area are really not doing much at all? Often, I'll see docs at trade shows...
LASER VS. LED'S THE CONTROVERSY EXPLAINED A Laser and an LED are both made of the exact same photons. A Laser is simply the photons concentrated into one...
Hi Buddy, Couldn't resist a comment here! You are totally right re some of these trade show performances. It seems there are still a huge group of "snake oil"...
Hi Steve, A typical therapeutic Laser for Chiropractic would be at least a single 250mw IR diode or a 4 x 250mw IR diode cluster head. These penetrate to the...
