Does anyone have information about buying a laser for you own personal use and for pets?

(I just read on the website that it is only for sale to medical professionals. Shit! But it may be on Ebay and there is another type my vet told me about that I will check out)

Many years ago a a very holistic chiropractor's I spoke about very low back pain. After the chiropractor left the room one of the assistants came in and started putting this tiny laser, (the ones that you can play with your cat.....but are not supposed to I have read). She put it on a few different spots on my lower back and it really lessened the pain for a while.

This doctor was cool because when I asked her what it was she told me outright and how I could buy one at the 7/11

So now I have really bad back pain and one of the things I would like to do is get a laser and use it on myself, (and my dog and whoever needs it). The vet was very nice and told me he used a K Laser and even showed me his. He said he uses it on the animals but also his partner has some neck problems that he treats with it.

Also I wonder if you can use one of these? √ "However, the FDA consider it only as an infrared heating lamp – and do not recognize the bio-stimulatory effects of the laser"

Here is a good website.: I don't know the prices. It explain how this therapy brings oxygen to the blood cells by providing heat and that oxygen gets to the tissues. It also talks about how it can help someone's general health. One lady was talking about how it healed her dog who had chronic ear infections.

Thanks for any information. I hope this information may be benificial to some others. I am kind of psyched about getting a laser since I realized that they increase oxygen in the body. That is wonderful for healing.

And I just read they will only sell the

Infrared K-Laser (Class 4 laser) Therapy


LASER is an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation

? Infrared K-Laser (Class 4 laser) therapy is a frequency therapy in the infrared range (~700-1000 nanometers) producing a photochemical reaction that is very effectively used to:

√ Reduce pain
√ Reduce inflammation
√ Enhance tissue healing (in hard and soft tissues, incl. muscles, ligaments, bones)

he Class 4 K-laser is more powerful than many other laser devices used for therapy in the U.S.:

- Minimum power requirement of class 3a, 3b and 4 lasers

√ Class 3a lasers are a minimum 5 milliwatts
√ Class 3b lasers range from 5 - 500 milliwatts
√ Class 4 laser must be > 500 milliwatts i.e. ½ a watt – this higher powered infrared laser is capable of deeper penetration into the body to reach muscles, and areas such as spine and hip

- The K-Series Class 4 Lasers

√ K-800 - has power adjustable from 0.1 - 8 Watts
√ K-1200 - 0.1 - 12 Watts
√ CUBE-4 - 0.1 - 15.0 Watts in continuous wave and 20 Watts peak / 12 Watts average in Intense Super-Pulsed mode.

? The K-lasers diffuse the laser light over an area the size of a quarter - for comparison, surgical cutting lasers use ~100 watts and spot focus the laser

? K-lasers are FDA-approved as medical therapy devices

√ However, the FDA consider it only as an infrared heating lamp – and do not recognize the bio-stimulatory effects of the laser

√ K-lasers are prescription medical devices available for sale and use only to health professionals – who are then trained by the manufacturer in their use. The U.S. has many K-laser therapy providers across the country (locations found at K-LaserUSA.com). Except in a few cases, treatment cost (~$40-175 / treatment) is not covered by insurance.

I just happened into a group of websites describing some monasteries in Thailand called Buddhist

Hell. It is very disturbing.

I have believed that hungry ghosts and Hell realms were conditions in this world.

Can anyone help me understand this? I think it is very scary.

Warning - the statues depicted are violent and horrible so don't click if you don't want to see them.

What executive orders do you think Obama should create during his last year in ffice

He issued about 247 so far.

I think he should issue one about body cameras on all police if he is allowed to do. And I don't give a shit how much it costs.

(I just found he issued an order to take out military equipment). And in Feb 2014 he called on congress to pass order for camera but that has obviously been ignored)


Here are some numbers of other presidents executive orders

http://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/data/orders.php

Franklin Roosevelt executive the most orders with 3,701

Ronald Reagan - 381

George W Bush 294

Barack Obama - 234

I would hope that there is some way, (like the anti abortion governors use) to make the governors of the states that refuse to adopt medicaid expansion to do so)

Here is a list of the orders Obama has implemented so far.

Just looking for ideas if anyone has one. I am sure that, we the people, can come up with more than the Democrats in Washington.

I don't know what he has issued about gun control safety.

Maher has a great way explaining things and what he has to say about Democrats and their crazy behavior right now.

Is the keeper of the website here? None of the little

things where you change the size of your shirt are working. I checked some other ones on the site and they seem not to be working also.

I would like to buy some things but......



I also keep trying to change the number of my bernie stickers and it won't let me change it.

Who do you think Bernie would vote for?

Do you think if he lost the primaries he would say, "I'm not voting for Hillary because I stand by my "principles"

Fuck NO. The man would stand with the Democrats. He wouldn't go on this ego trip of taking his vote away on a platform because things aren't the way he demands them to be! No matter what we are all being granted the good fortune of learning from him and have him spread a new way of looking at things to the masses.

Don't you think that alone will cause whoever is president to behave differently?

Or would you rather have Trump because your principles are more ego than anything else? And in the meantime all your fighting is just hurting the Democratic cause. I understand that people's emotions are running very high but that is no excuse for bad behavior.

I will vote for whoever is the Democratic nominee. Just like I'm sure Bernie AND Hillary would.

I have a lot of chronic conditions. Is it possible that my need for stimulation causes some of them


I remember thinking about being cured from the gastritis I've had for years and all of a sudden the thought, "I won't have anything to think of or I won't have anything to blame for just laying around" popped in my head.

I have heard that you get physical illnesses for emotional reasons and if you heal the emotional reasons the physical symptoms will not longer be needed.

I am just now getting read to get treated for ADD. I hope that this might be a symptom.
