I just want to start off by stating that I tore my meniscus 3 wks ago and I was extremely depressed due to the fact that I'm a dancer (hip hop, lyrical, African, and ballet).  I really was sad bc I thought that I might have to get surgery and not be able to dance for several months or years.  However, I went to this amazing laser/rehab center in Santa Barbara and after only a month I was right back into my dance classes and spinning classes.  So, I want the World to know about this amazing technology that is used and the staff that provides it.  Here is some info on the Center: 

The Laser Rehab Institute of Santa Barbara was the first facility in the United States to utilize High Power Therapeutic Laser technology in clinical practice. This safe, non-invasive, F.D.A. cleared medical breakthrough helps to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and restore injured tissues (bones, muscles, tendons, ligaments, nerves, wounds) at a cellular level up to 6 inches below the skin's surface. All patients remark on the immediate warm and soothing sensation with over 90% reporting positive results in just 1-3 short 30 minute treatments. www.laserrehabinstitute.com
