Wounds and Low Level Laser Therapy

Use a plastic cover over the head of the Q1000, place on top of the wound as close as you can go without hurting, and use for one 3 minute cycle ON MODE 3 1 times a day for two to three days. If the bone is infected and the wound is small in diameter, more like a hole, use the 808 probe and insert in the hole. Use for only 20 seconds, because this is more powerful (300mW as opposed to 3mW of the Q1000). Otherwise don’t use a probe.

Mode 3 has some antibacterial frequencies and should help, but remember the Q1000 laser does not kill bacteria – it flushes them into the blood stream where the immune system takes care of them, but if there is not ample circulation, that won’t happen. Always start with Mode 1 of the Q1000 on the Proprioceptive points (jaw, near ear and under ear, lymphatics on chest, shoulder blade, trouser pocket on buttock and in the groin) before using over the wound, to increase circulation. Peeling of the skin is common around an infection. Increased circulation will reduce this.


WHEN THE WOUND GETS PINK AT THE EDGES BACK OFF AND ONLY LASER 1 OR 2 times a week. This is a good sign that healing is taking place, with granulation in the bone and tissue, and this is when you reduce treatment. This should take about 12 days to happen, but everyone is different.

Too much lasering on an open wound such as this could push the healing over the top and down the other side of the Bell Curve.

Once the wound is scabbed over reduce to once a week.

Try to be on a good balanced supplement program. High strength enzymes, such as Serrapeptase are excellent in combination with the laser. Go to http://www.goodhealth.nu/uk/1781/ to order and get further information. It will deal with the debris from the broken up scar tissue, and will help with pain. They need to be taken away from food.
