I wanted to share a recent letter we received from a patient who was experiencing acute, severe jaw and tooth pain. She came for a series of Acupuncture and Laser (LLLT - Low Level Light Therapy) treatments to decrease inflammation and improve cellular health.
Hello Ryan-What a nice surprise to receive your message! I can’t tell you how much I have been thinking of everyone at Acubalance. I hope you are all well and coping through...
Last winter my shoulder was injured; a partial tear of the right shoulder tendon. It was very painful and I could not raise my arm high enough to do my hair. My doctor told me this just happens as we get older and react to injury, unofficially calling it "50 year old woman's disease". He told me I might never get my full range of motion back because tendon doesn't regenerate. I cried, did some googling of my own, and then cried some more....
Two birds with one Laser (LLLT): Right Shoulder and Plantar Fasciitis Pain Resolved
Over the last couple of years, I've woken up once every few months with shooting neck and back pain, like a pinched nerve. Recently this happened a day before I was to fly to Europe and the thought of spending 9-10 hours trapped in my seat with this pain made me call Acubalance.
I turned 50 & fell apart! First a frozen shoulder this winter, then Morton’s Neuroma in my foot in February 2018. After a podiatrist visit to confirm the Morton’s Neuroma, I began a series of cortisone shots that didn’t work. Orthotics gave some relief, but I was still unable to walk even short distances without pain. My old life of hiking, running & gym classes seemed to be slipping away until a friend suggested...
Acubalance's Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) HAS CHANGED MY LIFE!! Really it has!
If you’ve ever had chronic knee pain, you will appreciate this. I have suffered from chronic knee pain for a number of years and it finally got to the point where I needed to do something about it. I spoke with Dr. Lorne Brown at Acubalace in Vancouver who suggested that I try a series of laser (LLLT) and acupuncture treatments.
Last summer, I went to the Philippines and partook on surfing activities. After the trip, my right shoulder began to hurt from muscle strain. For four months I couldn’t raise my right shoulder and move it in certain directions without causing sharp pain. I tried various arm and shoulder stretches to alleviate the pain but nothing seemed to relieve it.
Hi Allison! Hello Lorne!
I trust this message finds you well! We are now back from our trip out west (which was fabulous!).
Allison, I had an opportunity to chat with Lorne just now, and wanted to update you as well that I have cancelled my back surgery (laminectomy and fusion of L4-S1) that was originally scheduled for July 25th!!!
My name is Tressa and three and a half years ago I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). For three years I battled RA with an anti-inflammatory diet and a natural approach. While I found some relief using these methods, the disease continued to progress, eventually resulting in pain in my left ankle, knees, hands, and wrists (I also have tendonitis in both shoulders). Whenever I stood up or tried to walk up stairs I would have...
