Bone Healing / Osteoporosis
by David Rindge, DOM, LAc, RN. All rights reserved. Low intensity lasers, including laser needle therapy, as well as bio-electromagnetic therapy have been extensively documented to stimulate the function of osteoblasts, cells which lay down new bone. In contrast, the biphosphonate drugs promoted for osteoporosis in standard practice do so not by stimulating the formation of new bone but [...]

About Bio-electromagnetic Therapy
Charge is one of the universe’s fundamental powers. Positive or negative, it determines the structure of atoms and molecules and how they interact. It has been applied medicinally for thousands of years. With the advent of electricity, our ability to generate and control strong electromagnetic fields and to use them to diagnose and treat has [...]

In Acute Diarrhea
In severe, acute diarrhea[1], eating cooked white rice taken with applesauce made from raw apples is likely to resolve the situation rapidly. If possible, use organic apples, and make the applesauce fresh in a blender before each meal. Enlarge meals as the condition improves to include cooked vegetables, brown rice and other whole grains. Include [...]
Case Studies – Digestive Disorders
“IBS” – Bloody Diarrhea and Constipation “Yvette” was a 46 year old female teacher who was seen for 12 visits and successfully treated for pain in both knees diagnosed as psoriatic arthritis. At her last two visits, she complained of cramping with alternating constipation and diarrhea and blood in the stool. Laser therapy was administered [...]
Case Studies – Back Pain, Hip Pain and Sciatica
Chronic Back, Hip & Sciatic Pain “George B.” came with right-sided low back and hip pain radiating to the posterior thigh x 15 years and was scheduled for back surgery. By the fifth visit, he reported a complete absence of pain. He was seen for seven visits and canceled surgery. Back Pain / Sciatica / [...]

“Karen” was a 56 year old female diagnosed with interstitial cystitis and fibromyalgia in 1996. Her chief complaints were constant bladder pressure / discomfort with urgency and urinary frequency, often requiring a restroom visit every half hour or less. To address these concerns, laser needle therapy was administered transcutaneously directly over the bladder. Her pre-treatment [...]
NASA Technology
In 1991 Quantum Devices Inc (QDI) began developing its ‘HEALS™’ technology in partnership with NASA, as a way of promoting plant growth in space. The use of a high intensity LED light, which emitted energy in the near infra red spectrum demonstrated that this red light wavelength could boost the energy metabolism of cells to [...]
