Thank you, Donna, for your great work yesterday. I don’t know what you did, but I feel so much better than I have in weeks. I received laser therapy for treatment of neck pain. I was relieved of pain after 5 treatments. The results were better and longer lasting than other therapies. I am enjoying the laser treatments on my jaw and the sensitivity in my tooth has diminished to almost no sensitivity. I feel so much better
