I saw one of these on a key chain at friends house... I think they

were using it for a pointer. I tried it on acupoints and felt de qi.

Do people use this therapeutically, and what are the caveats of

applying laser radiation to human tissue in relation to needles.

Hi Just Curious, & All,

The red-light laser pointers have a diode that emits at very low output

power (1-3 mW). IMO they are mere toys in therapy.

 

Modern therapeutic lasers (class 3b) usually emit at much higher mean

output power (90-150mW), and cluster probes (with many diodes) can

output 400-800mW.

 

IMO, laser dose = power X seconds. To get a fixed dose, say 2

Joules/point, exposure time needed is 8 seconds with a 250mW output,

but 80 seconds with a 25mW output.

 

The main caveats that I know are:

 

(a) Avoid shining laser into the eye and use special filtering goggles if

higher power (>50mW) lasers (esp IR - invisible light lasers) are used

routinely;

 

(b) Avoid direct LLLT on cancerous tissue; some say that it can

accelerate the cancer progression;

 

© Some people (very rare) are hypersensitive to laser and feel Qi

sensations that most do not feel when even very low-power lasers are

used on them; such people need short exposures only, or use a

different way to activate the points.
