Has Anyone Used Laser Treatment For Getting Rid Off The Dead PD Cells In The Brain?

A MyParkinsonsTeam Member asked a question đź’­
Dartmouth, NS

My Physio ran me through 12 weeks of laser treatments into the brain area. I was able to regain my voice which is stronger in tone. No pain with a lot of gain.
She feels that I am high functioning for where I am at with my PD. At times I feel great except for the inability to write more than a short sentence.
Comments will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Major

Call me timid, but I have some trepidation about having people stirring in my brain when so much about it and its function is still unknown. If something goes wrong, one can't say, "overs - I see my mistake" and carry on - remember lobotomy?

I have to be careful with that...some of my friends are convinced that dead PD cells is all that remains of my brain ;-)

I was in for a scheduled physio session on Tuesday, while discussing PD with her she found this article on the web. (HTTP:BIOFLEXLASER.COM) BIOFLEX THERAPY . This article is in reference to "shining light on brain injury". She also mentioned that this laser treatment was used on children.

So, fellow PDers, I haven't started to chase cars or barking at the moon (yet). The web is a source of information both good and bad, it may work for you or not. . To quote my son " it is what it is ".

When I receive further information I will post it.

@A MyParkinsonsTeam Member - I will freely admit to influence by hype about lobotomy misrepresenting the actual facts, still, color me timid about procedures involving my brain - it's the only one I have, and I'm sort of protective of it, PD effects or not.

Thanks for surfacing this - we all can learn something from it.

@A MyParkinsonsTeam Member - You're back! Hurray! No worries! most people only use 20% of their brains in their lifetimes, so we still have another 80% in reserve. I have known 2 people now who had half of their brain surgically removed, and were fine! Here is one, a fellow Parkie named Dan Vincent: https://www.facebook.com/neelesh.harbhajan/vide...
