Sharon Kleyne Hour

Dr. Lee Cowan, D.C. (Portland, OR), Chiropractor, discusses the benefits of laser therapy for wound healing or other therapeutic purposes. Applications include acute and chronic conditions involving the neck, shoulder, carpel tunnel, post surgery recovery and more. There are two types of laser therapies used in chiropractic care: cold and hot laser. Cold laser therapy utilizes a low level laser, with a focused beam of light energy to stimulate healing. Cold laser therapy presents no side effects, the process is painless and non-invasive. Hot laser therapy penetrates to deeper levels of the body and is performed as a pulsation so as not to burn the skin or underlying layers. Second guest, Veva Deheza (Denver, CO), Section Chief, Conservation and Drought Planning with the Colorado Water Conservation Board, discusses the Colorado River, projected population and water shortages.
