Low level laser therapy

Has anyone had any experience with low level laser therapy for neuropathy?

I haven't but you can bet I'll go google because hubby has it real bad in his stroke arm. <3 God bless and good "seeing" you, you're such a lovely person!

Researching this, I found lots of positive comments about it and infrared. If you hadn't posted that I never would have seen a new electronic medicine treatment they have for CMT which my brother is stricken with. It's like muscular dystrophy but of the nerves. this electronic stimulation may help with neuropathy as well, praise God! thanks again, I am constantly being led to helpful things by God's elect and chosen people! <3

hi! I’m familiar with low level laser therapy. My dogs benefited from it so I was a believer since dogs can’t be swayed by placebo effect. We had used it for osteoarthritis therapy on them. When I got this mysterious pain in my hip, I ended up buying a laser gun…upwards of $300 . Not a professional gun but still something I felt was therapeutic.

However, once I was diagnosed I didn’t use it on my hip…apparently I had read that LLLT stimulated cancer cell growth. Since then I have continued to use it for my wrist and hand issues (tendinitis) but I was concerned. I didn’t think of using it for neuropathy pain in my feet. I would consider using it for that. If I had neuropathy from diabetes or something similar, I would definitely consider LLLT for pain relief.

Nevertheless I would urge restraint for those who have cancer. Here is a link to a study on the effect of LLLT on certain cancer cells .

Not all studies are definitive but it’s a cautionary tale.

Thank you for bringing this up and offering a option for some of us.. 🙏🤞
