Another Patient Saved From Having an Unnecessary Knee Replacement

“I had a head on car accident thirty years ago and both knees were severely damaged.  I was informed my knees would never bend (properly).  Over time and with added years the pain in my knees has changed from intermittent pain to constant pain and has been getting progressively more severe.

I could not sit for extended periods of time.  I am a full time student so this interfered with my ability to study and concentrate.  I had difficulties sitting in low chairs and getting back up (this included toilets), navigating stairs was painful especially when carrying heavy objects.  I was no longer able to kneel or exercise.  When walking more than a block my right knee would buckle.  I suffered a severe fall resulting in an ambulance trip to the hospital, multiple x-rays and a large bill.  Most importantly sleeping through the night was almost impossible as turning was painful and would wake me up.  Sleep deprivation is physically and psychologically detrimental to the body.  I was getting frustrated and depressed as I contemplated the possibility of knee replacement.

I took Aleve and Celebrex which upset my stomach.   I also took Hydrocodone to help with the pain.  An orthopedic surgeon suggested I wear rubber braces with whale bone inserts.  These were hot, uncomfortable and it was painful to sit down.  After a severe fall the hospital doctor issued me a larger brace from ankle to hip with Velcro straps.  It made my right leg stiff and difficult to walk and almost impossible to drive a vehicle.

Since completing Dr. Schnee’s Cold Laser Knee Program I can sit for longer periods, making it easier to concentrate and study.  I can sit in low chairs and get back up with only some discomfort.  Going up and down stairs is now ‘doable’ without having to pull myself up by the handrail.  I am able to kneel with minimal pain.  I am able to exercise and walk great distances without the fear of falling.  I get in and out of my truck without knee pain.

I believe that my knee pain has diminished by 80%.  The very best part of this experience is that now I am able to sleep through the entire night without knee pain (waking me).  My disposition is much better and I can concentrate and study.  I was absolutely pleased with my overall experience!  There was no down time, no pain, and much cheaper than knee surgery!”

Bone on Bone Knee Pain is 80% Gone for Cold Laser Patient

“My (knee) pain was very severe, all the time.  It was a burning, searing pain that was constant.  I could barely walk.     I couldn’t bend my leg.  I could hardly walk up stairs.  I took baby steps.  Getting up from a sitting position was very difficult.  I woke up all the time from the pain.  I tried cortisone shots.  I had SYNVISC shots.  I tried Euflexxa shots, and I was on strong pain medication.  I was told I needed a knee replacement on my left knee, (and that my right one wasn’t much better.)

Since completing Dr. Schnee’s Cold Laser Knee Program I can walk much better without knee pain.  I sleep better, and stairs are no longer hard for me.  I am very, very pleased.  I wanted to be 50% out of pain but instead I am 80% out of pain!  When I can I will have my right knee done as well (with Dr. Schnee).”

Harvard Medical School, NASA, The US Navy – Scientific Breakthroughs Using Cold Laser Therapy

Since the invention of  low-level laser therapy (LLLT or cold laser therapy) over forty years ago it has been mostly known for its use in reducing pain, inflammation and edema, promoting healing of wounds, healing deeper tissue and nerve problems, and preventing tissue damage.  For years, where conventional medicine (drugs, injections, surgery) has failed in treating many chronic, degenerative and painful musculoskeletal conditions, cold laser therapy has proven to be more effective.

However, recently all of that has changed.

Cold laser therapy is no longer just being used for musculoskeletal conditions.

Scientists are currently investigating cold laser therapy’s use for treating spinal cord injuries, stroke, and both Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s diseases.

Cold laser therapy is also being trialed by NASA for manned missions into space and has already been used in Antarctica and on US Navy submarines.  (Cold lasers are used because in these extreme environments people do not heal very well after injuries)

In addition, at BiOS 2009 (part of SPIE Photonics West) researchers were invited from Harvard Medical School, the US Navy and NASA along with a dozen others to present the clinical benefits of cold laser therapy and its effects on stroke recovery, restoring eyesight after laser injury, healing age-related macular degeneration, improving heart muscle after myocardial infarction, spinal cord injuries, and sperm motility. The full benefits of cold laser therapy for treatment are just beginning to be realized.

Recent findings have changed everything we know about cold laser therapy. It is no longer used just for musculoskeletal conditions…it is anticipated that LLLT technology could be used in almost every hospital department throughout the world. [1]
