Fight Colds and Flu With the Laser “Watch”

IMG_0086.jpeg


The Problem 

We’ve all experienced the dreaded sore throat, aching muscles, chills and headache caused by colds and flu. There’s never a good time, but if this occurs before an important event or commitment, it can be a real nuisance. And depending on your age or other medical issues, it can be much more than an inconvenience. These viral infections can lead to more serious complications - particularly the influenza virus. 



An Effective Solution

You may be aware that antibiotics are ineffective against viral illnesses and for the most part the treatment for colds and viruses involve supportive care, rest and adequate fluids. 

The good news is that the laser watch can target colds and flu by a method called anti-microbial photodynamic therapy or aPDT. Impressively, aPDT targets bacteria, viruses and fungal infections. This type of therapy has been established by decades of research and clinical practice.

How is it Done?

The laser watch is applied to the back of the wrist after taking one of our PDT supplements. There is no pain, no damaging radiation and it is entirely safe - even for kids!

The laser watch is most effective when used at the OUTSET OF SYMPTOMS. In fact, in many cases, cold and flu symptoms may be significantly reduced or even virtually resolved within a few hours, provided that you also allow yourself some rest and adequate fluid intake. It will still help if treatment is delayed by a few days but in that case you may need to carry out additional treatments. 


Our Experience 

Many friends, relatives and patients of all ages have experienced the relief from either the sublingual laser or the laser watch over the past 2-3 years. We would like to make this useful treatment available to you!

The Laser Watch Can Be Used With Other Medical Therapy

Laser PDT can also be used in conjunction with other medical interventions for greater and more rapid relief of common infections. If you plan to take NSAIDS (e.g., Advil, Aleve, Voltaren, Aspirin etc.), use the laser watch treatment PRIOR TO taking these medications as they may reduce the response to laser PDT. They can be taken within a few hours after your laser watch treatment but if you treat with the laser watch as soon as you feel unwell you may find you don’t need to take them at all!


CAUTION

To avoid eye injury, do NOT look directly at the laser diodes while the lasers are switched on. Seeing the laser light from an angle is completely safe, but the laser should not be shone directly into the eye at close range. Therefore Children must be closely supervised while using this device.

The laser watch is not meant to replace proper medical care. If you have a high fever and it does not respond to the laser watch or sublingual PDT within a few hours, or if your fever is accompanied by neck stiffness, severe headache or light sensitivity PLEASE SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION

The Laser Watch may also offer some very useful health benefits beyond fighting infections. Take a look at our Diabetes Support section under Health Solutions for more information.
