I have friends who use it n swear by it. I'm not a fan only because I don't understand how the hell it works.  Not sure if it works or not.

It's decent for inflammation. Will increase cellular metabolism, associated with increased healing time. Not a miracle modality, but it has value.

You can seriously harm a patient if you're not trained properly. Laser burns are something awful.
