I came to Art of Health Chiropractic on the recommendation of a friend. She had been receiving cold laser therapy for a foot injury. I was a bit skeptical, but was willing to try by observing her progress over just a few sessions. 6 months prior to my first visit with Dr. Mike I had broken my shoulder. Though the break had healed the area was inflamed and the symptoms mimicked a rotator cuff injury, and wasn’t getting any better with time – I was stuck. I could not lift my arm up to turn on the radio of the car without an assist from my other arm, nor could I put my arm behind my back - just to name a couple of examples. I did two sessions a week for a month. After the second session I could turn on the radio – no assist, no pain, no weakness. After 4 sessions I could tie an apron behind my back, after 7 sessions my shoulder was 100% and had increased 40 degrees range of motion in three areas. My PT was astonished!! (to see if the cold laser was going to work, I didn’t do any PT during the month of the sessions) I can’t say how grateful I am for this remarkable, painless treatment!! I ran into a veterinarian friend recently and she told me that vets have been using cold laser successfully on animal injuries for many years. I’ve been continuing with the therapy on various arthritic joints with improvements weekly! I told Dr. Mike if he ever invents a cold laser booth – I’ll be first in line : )
