Dear Dr. Kahn:

Subject: Meditech Bioflex Laser

I would like to let you know the use of the laser unit has been helping the Toronto Raptors Basketball Club.

• Before using the laser, I had been using an ultrasound, a galvanic stim, and an interferential unit with some expected results but not the significant change that we require when athletes make $30,000.00 every time they play.
• Since starting with the laser, I have had some outstanding results in being able to get our athletes back to the game and practice.
• There have been exceptional changes in a particular injury that I would like to share with you. One of our athletes sustained a foot injury following a sprain that had kept him out of play for 3 weeks without any significant change. A specialist that concurred with our doctors that sometimes these injuries take a significant time to resolve and sometimes require surgery saw him after the three weeks. I had been using every modality as well as manual therapy techniques without any changes. I used your laser after consulting with Dr. Baxter and yourself and within three days he was able to practice and play two days later. Without the laser, I expect it would have been a minimum of another two weeks before his return.

The bioflex unit itself has been very easy to use and its adaptability has been its significant advantage over all other units that I have been exposed to.

I must admit my skepticism for the use of lasers since I had not had the results that you claimed with other units. I also did not like the time that it took to treat with other single probe and cluster probe units. Since starting with the adaptability of the unit's critical output.

I have no hesitation to give this unit my full endorsement and have spoken to several of my colleagues in the NBA, and the Toronto Blue Jays about my results and my suggestion that they purchase the unit.

Sincerely,

Chuck Mooney
