This site is promoting laser therapy for pain relief. http://blastpain.com/facts.html
But I wonder if it might be helpful for CCSVI
How Laser Therapy Works
At a cellular level there are photoreceptors that, when stimulated by deep penetrating photons, activate a biochemical cascade of events resulting in increased DNA/RNA synthesis, increased cAMP levels, protein and collagen synthesis and cellular proliferation. The product of these reactions is a rapid regeneration, normalization and healing of damaged cellular tissue. Photonic stimulation is the trigger for these metabolic changes.
Safe and Efficient Pain Relief
Biological Effects of Therapeutic Laser Therapy
• Analgesia through the release of endorphins and a decrease in the bradykinin levels.
• Immediate inflammation reduction
• Reduction of fibrous tissue formation
• Improved vascular activity
• Increased metabolic rate within tissues
• Improved nerve function
• Stimulation of trigger and acupuncture points
• Accelerated tissue repair and cell growth"
Some of the claimed benefits sound good for MSers such as;
Immediate inflammation reduction
• Improved vascular activity
• Improved nerve function
• Accelerated tissue repair and cell growth
I don't mind being a guinee pig to try out new ideas as long as;
1) the idea makes sense and
2) it isn't likely to kill me or make me worse.
But I'm not sure I like the idea of having my brain blasted by a laser.
What do you think?
Could this be helpful for CCSVI?
