Not ‘everyone’, Class 4 is not the sole solution espoused to improve lung health.

– LED mats have believers (low power but long sessions)

– there are Class 1 success stories about Covid patients e.g. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8617935/

A hot laser is a surgical instrument i.e. a laser scalpel. A cold laser does not cut, and can be…
