I took Mac in this morning for his first laser treatment.
They were going to take him in the back but I wanted to watch and felt like Mac
would be more comfortable with me in the room. So they set up one of the exam
rooms. First, we all had to put on protective glasses.
He started rotating the laser at the top of his spine and
worked his way down, spending about 6 minutes.
Then he moved to his hips, followed by each of his knees (cranial
cruciate ligaments). By then, poor Mackie’s legs were shaking… he had been
standing up the entire time. I was
there 45 minutes so I’m guessing the entire treatment was 30 minutes, about 6
minutes on each area.
Since it’s a heated laser, he could leave the laser in one
spot but Mac didn’t seem to mind or feel any discomfort except he was scared.
It probably felt good. I asked him if he could do my back when he was
finished. Ha!
They said I might notice a difference tomorrow or the next
day or that he could be very sore from the treatment. I’ll see how he reacts to his afternoon walk or if he wants to
go. He’s good about letting me know.
The next treatment is Wednesday.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Wishing you peace,
prosperity, lots of love & happiness in 2013.
