I saw this in the news last night and thought finally a good story on Laser.
Thought the Group would enjoy hearing good PR on Lasers.

Shingle Springs Dog Beamed Back To Life With Lasers « CBS Sacramento

SHINGLE SPRINGS, Calif. (CBS13) – It sounds like a science fiction story, but a Shingle Springs family says their dog Barley was beamed back to life by a laser.

The Shipman’s say when their Golden Retriever Barley collapsed in the backyard last fall, they thought they would lose him.

“He was obviously in a lot of pain and we thought it was the end,” said Evan Shipman. “And so we spent the morning saying our goodbyes.”

After two days of not eating or moving, they called the vet to put him down.

That’s when the doctor suggested laser therapy. Needless to say the Shipman’s were skeptical. The vet says the laser stimulates cell activity and is used for a variety of medical problems like arthiritis, chronic pain and back injury.

After two treatments Barley was tottering around again. After six, Barley was back to running around the yard.

The laser treatments ended up costing a few hundred dollars, but the extra time with Barley is worth the cost to the family.

“I mean he’s actually better than he was a year or two years ago,” said Evan Shipman. “We get pretty choked up thinking about how close we were to putting him down.

The Shipman’s are looking forward to celebrating Barley’s 15th birthday next month.

Hmm, I hate to be like this, but I'm gonna remain skeptical of "soft laser treatment"
until I see a double-blind randomized placebo controlled study.
Otherwise it's nothing but anecdotal evidence.

Yeah, this reeks of post-hoc. The probable hundreds of times this didn't work aren't very news-worthy either.

well it seems to being used by some medical people will have to look up what testing have been done could have a ton maybe none just thought no matter it still better then some of bad Laser news stories. the hair one has been blind test from what saw so that was interesting.

I skeptical on lot of thing .. like this new group putting out theses bracelets with holograms on the saying the power of the laser hologram has health and balance the body energy' s.. That is like a real scam as i done work with some who did early holograms and never did i get kind of benefit from them othre than very nice pay check lol.
