As low-level laser providers, we are an elitist group of doctors who are incorporating a modality that surpasses all others in its capacity to enhance patient recovery from more than just pain. The cellular effects of low-level laser therapy can regenerate tissue, re-awaken dormant neural circuits, and recover lost brain pathways. Most importantly, there is nearly always a reason to use Erchonia lasers on our patients. Join me in Orlando for an inspiring morning of laser applications, gut rebuilding protocols and case management in daily practice.
