So…
I had an accident with my finger…
Now it won’t straighten all the way…
So, I purchased this portable cold laser therapy device, after having a 5 minute session at a chiropractor, which showed immediate improvement…
I wanted more time with the laser device, & zero more time of the forced exercises he had performed, because the 40 minutes of pushing hard with the finger actually caused increasing swelling, pain, & deformity…
I had gone just for the laser, but was forced to do the exercises, despite explaining that I had noticed that exercising made it worse…
I was told that I had just been doing the wrong type of exercises…
So, I found an ebay seller, in Scarborough, Ontario, who had the same laser device,& was asking $450 CAD, no tax…
I offered $250 Cad…
She counteroffered $330 Cad, & I jumped!
This device can be found on Amazon, & ships directly from Belarus, for about $179 US currency (30% more than CAD)…
But I could not wait a month for it to arrive, & God knows that it might be held at several borders, due to the new Trump paranoiac xenophobia…
It might have cost $225 Cad…But would it ever arrive in time to correct my now deformed finger?
I couldn’t take that chance…
My mum said that it would cost me a thousand dollars in repeat sessions to a doctor…
Is that the scheme? Limit the time on the healing laser to 5 minutes each $130 cad hour session to maximize revenue?
I am not sure, but even the manual says begin with 30 minutes, 3 times per day…So 5 minutes,was not even the beginner amount…
Not to be ungrateful, but the exercises during the chiropractic session caused me to need to wrap some steak(yes, this works) around the finger, with an elastic band, just to recover from the chiropractic session…
I am also not sure that the finger was never broken, as the chiropractor said…
Here is the information from the ebay seller!!!
