The Journey: Star Trek is Here!Earlier this year I followed my gut and traveled to Toronto, Canada to check out what appeared from a distance to be very promising. There, Dr Fred Kahn a trained Vascular Surgeon has spent the last 15 years doing research, developing equipment and treating, by now, thousands of patients with Low Intensity Laser therapy. Having worked with low intensity laser (also called cold laser) for the last 4 years, I knew its benefits, but always felt the technology was capable of more than what my experience was showing me. Turns out I was right. Dr Kahn, by combining a pretreatment of superluminous diodes with cold laser has substantially increased the absorbtion of photons in cells and therefore the healing potential of the laser. At the intercellular level the light from the diodes and laser is transformed into biochemical energy the body can utilize. Cells use this energy to repair and regenerate themselves, enhancing the body’s natural healing process. This is most helpful in chronic conditions where the affected area has been deprived of the resources it needs to heal by local congestion. At our training we were impressed by everyone we met at Meditech. Unlike other companies who may aggressively market inferior equipment with insufficient follow up support, Dr Kahn has been more interested in research and developing effective protocols and he has attracted an equally dedicated team. As a result, the use of his equipment has grown organically from the base of operation out. His two Toronto clinics now see 800 patient visits a week and there are 40 some clinics using the Bioflex System in Ontario Province. Word of his work had just recently come to my attention here in the States. In my 27 years of practice I had not seen the kind of reversals of chronic degenerative musculoskeletal conditions that Dr Kahn’s protocols were acheiving. I was hooked but still nervous and somewhat skeptical until we brought the system home and started treating. We didn’t have to wait long to see for ourselves. In my case, my neck had always been a chronic weak link since diving into a lake in my 20’s and hitting my head on a rock. Within a few treatments, I had the sensation that someone was taking an oil can and oiling my rusty joints. Overall there has been a greater than 90% improvement. Tracy, a co-worker tripped off her porch the week we got our equipment and sustained a hairline fracture in her foot. One treatment and her swelling, black and blue and pain on weightbearing was gone! The BioFlex system greatly speeds up the healing of acute injuries. One of the first clients we treated was a woman in her 70’s who had injured her dominant hand in a garage door 4 years ago. She could not bend her fingers to make a fist or use her hand to write without pain. Within 5 treatments with the BioFlex system she had full function in her hand with no pain. She was delighted as well to find that these treatments are non-invasive and comfortable. Another patient in her 50’s with chronic degenerative arthritis in her neck (the result of an injury as a teen) has had a reversal of her degenerative changes after 12 treatments. She now has full range of motion and no pain for the first time in her adult life. We have continued to add to our list of successes, at times with patients who had given up on the medical system. Sports injuries respond so quickly we are currently in the process of making contact with local school coaches and gyms to spread the word and are offering convenient treatment times for athletes.

These days I can’t help but jokingly tell my patients that Star Trek is here, seeing the similarities between their futuristic instruments for healing and the Bioflex laser system.
