While training for Iron Man New Zealand in January '05, I tore a calf muscle doing a hard 5 km tempo run. It was severely painful, very swollen and bruised all over. I could not run for January, February and March. In New Zealand rest, ice, elevation and compression were my only treatments. Iron man New Zealand - no go. Then over to Australia for Iron Man Australia. I had physiotherapy 3 days a week for April, May and June. Still couldn't run. Back to Canada for July and August. I hadn't run for 6 months. I had tried everything - weights, stretching, physio, ice, rest, compression, massage, acupuncture. I was very desperate at this point with 3 Canadian championship races (all 3 qualifiers for world championships in Hawaii) at the end of August.

I saw an ad for Laser Therapy in Impact Magazine. I had no knowledge of Laser Therapy, but decided to give it a chance. It was amazing. After 9 treatments, I was able to start running slowly on and off. After 5 weeks and only 15 treatments, I was back training normally and ready to compete again. The Laser Therapy far exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to get back to racing again after a serious injury.

To date I have had 2 laser treatment sessions and I have already noticed a difference. I had extensive bruising in the area of the fracture as well as on my toes and the underside of my foot. Weight bearing was extremely painful as well. The laser decreased the swelling in my foot and helped disperse the bruising. Bruises that had been deep purple & green for almost two weeks, faded almost entirely within a couple of days of receiving the laser treatment. I also noted that my foot was not as painful or swollen as it had been before treatment. I am looking forward to a speedier recovery with the help of the laser.

I would definitely recommend laser treatment.

At the age of 48 and still very active in a number of sports, I have seen my share of injuries, bumps and bruises.

My latest injury, a strained rhomboid muscle was so painful that it was keeping me from normal work duties and even preventing me from sleeping.

After only a few visits to L.H.S. the pain subsided and I began to return to pain-free living and to playing hockey. L.I.L.T. (low intensity Laser Therapy) worked for me when pain killers and muscle relaxants did not.

I would highly recommend this treatment to anyone.

Austin came into our office suffering a knee injury after being checked into the boards playing hockey. Three weeks after his injury he still was unable to stand. After his laser treatments this is what he had to say.

“My Mom heard about Laser Therapy through a neighbor. After four sessions I didn't need my crutches anymore. After seven sessions I could run and play sports. I am feeling way better than two weeks ago! I wished I heard about LaserHealth Solutions when I got the injury, so I could have been back playing sports earlier. If I get hurt again I will get my mom to bring me back to LaserHealth Solutions.

Dear Diana,

Thank you very much for all you have done for me this summer (2008). Going into the summer, I thought I would need surgery to remove a calcified hematoma on my right ankle bone. Being an elite hockey player, this protrusion on my ankle made it quite difficult to wear my skate for prolonged periods of time, even forcing me to take off my skate in the middle of practice just to ease the pain. The time required to prep and recover from surgery would have been quite costly to both my summer training and to any enjoyment I would receive in the small amount of time I get off every year. With the surgery, I wouldn't have been able to effectively prepare for the upcoming season or for a chance to make an NHL team. Furthermore, I probably would have been on crutches for at least a month, something no one should experience during summer. Thanks to laser treatment and you, surgery was not required, and I was able to have a full summer of training and fun. Without laser treatment, I wouldn't be in the peak physical condition I am right now, which allows me to compete at the extremely high level of athleticism that is required of all NHLers.

Thanks again,

Hi! My feet have hurt for so long, seems like forever. I have told my family doctor about my discomfort, to no avail. I have been to many chiropractors, who would snap, crackle and pop, to no avail. I have spent a small fortune on orthotics, to no avail. I have many pairs of shoes, hoping to find just the right pair and nothing has taken the pain away. My feet felt like they had been beaten. Simple tasks, such as a grocery shop was a chore. How unfair is it to not even enjoy a mall shop, knowing when I got to one end of the mall I would be dreading the painful walk back. Pain killers got me through the days when my puppies would look at me with their big brown eyes and want to go for a walk.

Then the suggestion of LaserHealth Solutions came to light. What have I got to lose -- PAIN -- wouldn't that be special? I tell Blaine about my aches and pains and he says quote “There's nothing wrong with your feet". I didn't know what to think, so I let him do his stuff. He straightened my shoulders and the biggest deal was all in the hips. Hips - the hinge for the whole body. Mine were like a broken door, not doing job for which they were intended. Blain found every painful pressure point and pressed until the pain subsided. I had been walking lopsided for so long, the muscles and nerves in my legs and feet were not at all happy. Blaine found sore areas on my legs that felt like he was pressing on a very sore bruise. This hurt - a lot. So with some painful treatments, exercise, massage and his magic laser lights, I can now walk pain free. I am amazed at this and it still seems odd to do the mall walk painlessly. My husband says “I bolt". This is good because I have been left out of the race for far too long. I have my life back. I cannot thank everyone at LaserHealth enough. Thank You.

After an unfortunate day for me in taekwondo that left me with a sore foot, it was soon all hands on deck to get me back to my peak condition for the end of my track season and the few remaining, but important, meets I had trained hard for. My mom took me to physiotherapy and to a podiatrist to try and help me. While it did help, the progress was too slow to be effective in time for my track meets. Then my dad suggested laser therapy. He had received this treatment on his knee and had said it helped him with the pain/discomfort he had experienced. With the upcoming meets fast approaching I decided to give it a try. After about 4-5 treatments I felt noticeably better. Due to the fast progresss made by laser therapy I believe it played a part in helping me win silver the BC Summer Games for the 100m. I would recommend laser therapy to anyone looking for a solution to soft tissue problems or needing to help themselves achieve their peak physical condition.“
