@waltermc there is another discussion that you may be interested in where members are discussing laser therapy. I'm tagging other members who have mentioned laser therapy in a post to see if they can share their experience. @mikween @janetdh @swiss @holhealthcare and @dutchman09 may be able to share their experience with you.

I have not tried low level laser therapy myself although I have looked into it. I just personally don't want to pay a lot of money for something that may or may not work based on discussions I've had with the treatment center offering the low level laser therapy. I have a friend that had many treatments and feels it has helped them but is pretty subjective and different for each person. There is some good information available regarding the low level therapy for pain issues.

I have been thinking about getting one of the new SaunaSpace single units which is a near infrared light therapy device.

Thank you for the info. I didn't feel warm & fuzzy about the laser therapy either. The guy I spoke with is a chiropractor and wants $2,200 for a month's treatments (3 times a week) and he recommends 2-3 months worth of treatments. That's a lot of money for something that "might" work.
