THE HEALING POWER OF COLD LASER

How Can Our Lasers Help You?

Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) has been used worldwide for more than 40 years to relieve pain, remove scars, heal wounds, regenerate nerves, and solve addictions. On January 17th, 2002, Erchonia Medical received FDA clearance through clinical trial. The study involved 100 patients complaining of neck and shoulder pain. Half were treated with a useless red light and the other half received treatment from an Erchonia LLLT. The results? The treatment group beat the placebo group by 66%! That means 66% faster and more complete relief from symptoms.

How Does LLLT Work?

Erchonia cold lasers help muscle, skin, and nerves heal faster by working at the cellular level. Our cells produce ATP (adenosine tri-phosphate) to heal tissue as well as our body. ATP is like gasoline is to a car, only for human bodies. Erchonia lasers stimulate micro-structues within our cells to produce higher amounts of ATP. With more ATP we heal much faster!

What Symptoms Do Lasers Treat?

You can use lasers for any of the following: Acute and chronic pain, neuropathy, neck & back pain, headaches, migraines, nerve & disc pain, carpal tunnel, sciatica, sports injuries, scars, addictions (such as smoking or overeating).

How Does the Zerona Promote Total Body Wellness?

Kerry’s story is a perfect example!

Kerry lost 6.75 inches in just 6 visits! Best of all, the Zerona helped her lower her total cholesterol, LDL levels (a.k.a. bad cholesterol) and triglyceride levels to within a healthy range! The Zerona promotes not just inch loss, but also increases total health and wellness!

Before Zerona
Total Cholesterol: 282 mg/dL (High)

Triglycerides: 170 mg/Dl (Borderline High)

LDL Cholesterol: 150 mg/dL (Borderline High)

2 weeks, several workouts, healthy eating, and 6 Zerona treatments later…

After Zerona
Total Cholesterol: 247 mg/dL (High, but only 7 units away from borderline!)

Triglycerides: 100 mg/dL (Normal)

LDL Cholesterol: 132 mg/dL (Borderline high, 2 units from being optimal!)

Congratulations to Kerry on achieving a healthy lifestyle with hard work and the Zerona!

Zerona FDA Approved for Inch Loss!

The Zerona Lipo Laser is now the first non-invasive aesthetic device to receive FDA market clearance in the U.S. for circumferential reduction of the waist, hips, and thighs.

The FDA approved the Zerona for inch loss after completing a study evaluating 67 participants. The participants used the laser treatment 3 times per week for 2 weeks and had no diet, exercise, or any other restrictions placed upon them. The result was an average inch loss of 3.65 inches across the patient's waist, hips, and thighs in as little as two weeks.

The Arne Wellness Center has seen this same success with the Zerona laser. With the addition of dieting, supplements, and exercise our patients lose an average of 4-6 inches or more in just 2 weeks! We have also seen the Zerona normalize blood sugar levels and lower elevated blood pressures. These are just a few examples of how the Zerona promotes total body wellness.

The Zerona has been featured on the Rachel Ray show, CBS Early Show, and the Doctors.

You can try the Zerona for free by visiting the Arne Wellness Center. Call (952) 697-3100 or email maggie@arnewellnesscenter.com to set up your free trial!

Pilot Studies Explore Low Level Laser’s Effect on LDL, Leptin, and Parkinson’s Disease

Erchonia Medical presents three new studies at the American Society of Laser Medicine and Surgery Annual Conference in Phoenix, AZ.

Study 1
Erchonia will be presenting a study it conducted using low level lasers to treat late stage Parkinson’s disease. Eight volunteers between 18 and 80 years old with late stage PD participated in the non-controlled, non-randomized study and received low level laser treatments daily for two weeks. Patients were asked to rate the severity of their symptoms (balance, gait, freezing, cognitive function, rolling in bed, and speech difficulties) from 0-10 using the Visual Analog Scale. All participants demonstrated a decrease in VAS from baseline to study endpoint.

Study 2
The second study Erchonia plans to present shows how low-level lasers may reduce low density lipoprotein levels (LDL). Forty one patients between 18 and 65 participated in Erchonia’s non-controlled, non-randomized study. Participants received a 40-minute Zerona laser treatment three times a week for two weeks and demonstrated a reduction in low-density lipoprotein levels of 12.05 points, a 13% reduction. This study suggests that low level laser therapy may serve as a non-invasive way to reduce LDL levels in two weeks.

Study 3
Erchonia’s third study explores how its Zerona laser impacts leptin levels, the hormone linked to hunger. Twenty volunteers between the ages of 18 and 65 participated in Erchonia’s non-controlled, non-randomized study. Participants received 40-minute Zerona low-level laser treatments three times per week for two weeks. All participants demonstrated a reduction in leptin levels compared to their baseline – on average, a 50% decrease. Since leptin levels are associated with hunger, this study shows low level laser technology may noninvasively suppress the appetite.

Ryan Maloney, Erchonia’s medical director and one of the authors of the studies comments, “Although these were non-controlled, non-randomized pilot studies, they each showed promising new applications for low level laser technology. Further study is needed, but Erchonia is paving the way for new noninvasive healthcare technologies with a commitment to research and innovation.”

Another Great Transitions Meeting!

Great Transitions meeting last night! We learned what fast food can do to your digestive system. Jayna, our coach, brought in some fast food. She also had two stockings. In the first, she cut up a philly steak and cheese sandwich and put it in the stocking. She then mushed up the sandwich in the stocking, representing how our intestines process our food. Nothing fell out of the stocking; everything became mushy and stuck. She then added french fries and a coke. Still, NOTHING came out the end! Do we really want this to happen to us? Clogged intestines or an impacted colon?

Next, Jayna chopped up some vegetables and put them in a different stocking. The fresh vegetables fell from the bottom of the stocking with no problem! Her example showed how easy vegetables are on our bodies, and how great they make us feel.

So after that demonstration, which would you rather have?

Transitions Lifestyle System

Three days ago I started TRANSTIONS Lifestyle System. This program deals not only with dieting, but with life changes in the way we eat foods altogether. The first week is a detox week. Now, I know what your thinking...DETOX AHHHHHHH!! It's not bad at all!

I have been starting my mornings off with a cup of warm water, and squeezing a half of a lemon into it. I do this a half hour before I eat. For breakfast, I have some eggs and add some vegetables into them. A side of 100% whole wheat toast with peanut butter. For lunch, Oatmel, and veggies. Supper consists of some lean, boneless, skinless chicken breasts. Seasoned for perfection! With a side of some green vegetables. For a snack, as many fresh fruits and veggies that i want.

I admit the first day was kind of rough, but i made it through, and see myself making it all the way past the three month program. I can't wait to see the results of how great i feel and look!

Story of a Champion

AWC SUCCESS: RYAN ARNE

I was hurt in a wrestling match and couldn’t figure out why I was in so much pain. I had no broken bones. The hospital told me not to wrestle for the rest of the season. The Doctor gave me morphine and steroids and told me to use ice and my pain would get better in a few weeks. But I didn’t have a few weeks. I wanted to keep wrestling and be healthy for the 2009 sections and the state wrestling tournament. I decided to visit my aunt and uncle, Dr. Steve and Bessie Arne. At the Arne Wellness Center, I was able to get healthier and wrestle again in just 4 days. I made it to sections and won 1st place! I am looking forward to state. The doctors told me it wouldn’t be possible but with chiropractic, cold laser and the tensegrity I feel healthier and stronger even more than I did before the injury. Thank you for all your help!
-Ryan Arne

A Zerona Success!

I have been an AWC patient for years. Recently, I made the AWC an integral part of my "get well" plan. I still remember coming to Bessie at my lowest point ready for a big change. I'd been in transition for the previous 5 years with college, new residences, study abroad, and bad relationships. Along with an un-healthy lifestyle I was carrying emotional baggage from childhood and adolescence. I have been to counseling but it didn't deal with my issues fully.

The treatment plan from Dr. Steve and Bessie were Chiropractic adjustments combined with physical and emotional detox. I came 3 times per week for the first few months to detox physically with adjustments, Zerona Lipo Laser, EB footbaths, and the Hothouse. These were combined with Emotional Release, Color Therapy, and Flower Essences for emotional detox.

As I progressed, I cut back on visits. However, I know that I need to continue to come because maintenance is so important. I have lost 35 pounds and 22 inches all over! I am down 3 dress sizes! More importantly, I've let go of so much more than just weight. I've overcome inner chaos that fed my overeating. I am active and motivated to continue with progress.

I am grateful for the support and help from Dr. Steve and Bessie. I am back on track!

-JB
