I'm unhappy because I spent a lot of money and I'm not any better. I had spent $400 at Cornerstone Wellness Center--on ten laser sessions at $40 apiece--because I had shoulder surgery on my right shoulder and was trying to prevent it on my left shoulder. I asked if this laser would heal tears and shredding, and they said yes. But, when they were using it, they kept talking about inflammation. I don't think that laser was what I came in for because I didn't come in for inflammation.
In eight sessions I had been feeling better, but I was given exercises to do during sessions 9 and 10 which seemed to undo the previous 8 sessions' worth of work. I ended up with the same amount of discomfort and pain, and I don't know if it was miscommunication: The woman I started with ended up with a broken ankle, but I ended up seeing someone else who seemed extremely good with what he was doing. I thought that maybe I should have had an MRI instead of treatment. I kind of trusted them because a friend had been there, but I'm regretting that I hadn't been proactive and that I had been too trusting. However, the staff was pleasant and the people who did the laser were knowledgeable.
