1 Chronic Joint Pain Gone In Just A Few Short Weeks! Finally, a proven therapy found here locally to finally get rid of your knee pain. Dear Friend, If you re reading this report, most likely you either have or have had... Joint Pain.

2 You know, you ve either damaged your knees, shoulders, or back before, and you ve done it again, or you don t know what happened, but you are in pain. Believe it or not there is an aging process that goes on and joints get worn down, so you have to learn how to be careful. Here are few questions: Are you concerned about the imminent possibility of surgery? If you have joint pain... you should be. Do you dread getting out of your chair at a movie. Do you struggle doing it? Do you search for elevators or escalators even if you only have to go down one flight of stairs because of your joints and how they feel when you go up or down stairs. Are you popping pain med pills and anti-inflammatories like candy? That s a bad sign, and if you keep it up... you re going to have more health issues from the side effects. Do your joints pop and crack more and more every week? I mentioned the side effects of pain medications, even the ones you buy over the counter, but did you know that long term use of NSAIDS like ibuprofen, naproxen or pain killers like Tylenol lead to many health problems not limited to kidney or liver failure and internal bleeding? 2

3 Are you worried that surgery might be just around the corner? If you are a joint pain sufferer you are not alone. Joint Surgery is becoming more and pervasive with More than 1 million Americans having a hip or knee replaced each year. That number quickly expands when counting shoulder, back, elbow, and wrist surgeries. So what is osteoarthritis and what might be causing your joint pain? Osteoarthritis (OA), is a big word, but it s also known as degenerative joint disease. DJD, as it s called, is the most common type of arthritis. Just like a piece of wood that is left outside begins to rot (degenerate) when it s exposed to the weather, your joints are the same way. Here s what usually happens. The cartilage begins to break down (from wear and tear, old sports injuries, new injuries, poor diet, a lack of water which causes dehydration etc.) which can lead to pain, inflammation and most likely a loss of range of motion in your joints. DJD, or osteoarthritis, doesn t happen overnight. It will develop slowly, usually over a period of years (even though there s no pain, just some discomfort) and it s usually made worse by some of the following: Extra weight on the joints from being overweight, or having issues with obesity. Joint injury from an old accident, even an old sports injury from high school, or college. Misaligned joints, where things wear out if they re not aligned. Your joints are just like a car front end. Once 3

4 out of alignment your joints will wear out faster. Keep them lined up correctly and in the proper position and your joints will not wear out. I don t know about you, but if you take 1,000 people over the age of 65 years old, and you ask all of them if they have say knee pain, they re not all going to have issues with their knees. Why? Because some people take better care of their bodies and joints than other people. Overuse or stress on joints from repetitive activities from sports, work and leisure activities. I mentioned this earlier, but I m mentioning it again because so many people forget what they did back in high school and how quickly they healed, or they thought they healed. Time! Unfortunately, the longer you are alive, the more of these that things will occur. My job is to help you feel better, stay aligned, and get relief from your achey, swollen joints. So how does this treatment work? That s a good question. If you re thinking this is some type of physical therapy, you re completely wrong. It s nothing like that. There s no stretching, no painful exercises to do, and you ll usually feel results quickly. How does this work? Well, we ve worked on these specialized protocols for years. We ve talked to people, tested different protocols, and we ve 4

5 finally come up with a protocol that helps a huge percentage of patients within the first few treatments. Sometimes even faster, but as you know, there s no guarantees, everyone does different types of activities, and since no one is the same age, every patient who starts this program... responds a little bit differently. How do we get such good results? We use a unique combination of specific joint therapies and add the power of a class IV Therapy Laser to treat the cause of your acute or chronic joint pain. A class IV Therapy Laser is a special laser that is one of a kind in terms of healing abilities, and it s especially good for people with any type of joint pain. When will I feel Results? Like I mentioned before, it depends on a number of things. If you re younger, and you just injured yourself, you might feel better in a matter of days or weeks and get back to normal overnight. 5

6 Then again, I won t tell you that this treatment works on everyone - - because it doesn t, but your chances are very good that it will. We ve had patients that had lots of physical therapy, lots of medication, and lots of medical visits to orthopedic doctors, and other specialists, but we ve found out that this is one of the best alternatives to surgery. But what do you think one of the biggest questions I m asked? Will my insurance cover this treatment? If you get some physical therapy, the answer is usually yes but if you get this type of specialized treatment, where you get fast results, the answer is usually no. But don t worry. We do run this by your insurance with a simple phone call, but we like to let you know up front that most of the time your insurance will deny this type of specialized treatment, even if it works for you and you feel 100% better. 6

7 How do I know if this therapy is for me? Here s what you have to remember. This treatment could be right for you if you have joint pain. No guarantees - but if you re suffering from pain, even if you re sitting down, you re tired of how you feel, and you re willing to do whatever it takes to get back your mobility, plus lose the pain in your joints, this is probably the best thing you ll ever come across for getting rid of your pain. A lot of people are insane. Let me tell you why. Some people just keep on taking medications and HOPE that the more they take, the better the pain will get. That s a fallacy. Won t happen that way. Medication is good at one thing. Covering up the symptoms. If you are not getting adequate results from oral medications and physical therapy (no pain) and you re tired of suffering from some of the side effects associated with oral medications that can wreak havoc on your immune system, where you feel okay, but you re actually getting worse inside, this is something you have to get on board with today. What about surgery. You might even be reading this report, even though you have a surgery scheduled. That s not a problem. Just let me say don t forget you can call and get that surgery rescheduled or cancelled if your body comes around without surgery. Are you aware of how many failed joint surgeries there are per year? Let s take a look at just knee surgery s together: 7

8 Knee Surgery No Better Than Sham Surgery This latest study, conducted in Finland, examined 146 patients with degenerative meniscal tears (caused by "wear and tear," not acute injury). Researchers divided patients into two groups. One group received the standard surgery, and the other received a "sham surgery" in other words, a fake or placebo intervention where NO actual surgery would take place. The study excluded people with knee arthritis, because they tend not to benefit as much from meniscus surgery and the researchers wanted to ascertain if the surgery helps under "ideal circumstances." The sham surgery involved the physician's making an incision and poking around without any actual cartilage shaving or cutting. Many of the patients were given epidural anesthesia, so they were awake, making it necessary for surgical staff to use their "theatrical talents" to pull off a believable sham surgery. The outcome? One year later, both groups reported equally favorable responses to the procedure primarily, reduction in knee pain. In the end, the researchers concluded that the real knee surgeries offered no better outcomes than the sham surgeries. Arthroscopic surgery on the meniscus is the most common orthopedic procedure in the US, and according to this study, is performed about 700,000 times a year to the tune of $4 billion. Any surgeon who tells you this is the best or only option for your osteoarthritic knee pain will not have a leg to stand on when you show him or her all of the evidence to the contrary. 8

9 That s if you want to do the best thing for your body, knowing that surgery can sometimes turn into a fiasco, or death. Since you ve read this far, I want to talk to you about your options not just for knees but for most major joints in your body. Having options is important, and if you want to just try one last thing before surgery - this is it. This amazing treatment is extremely safe. We ve had patients tell us it ll work on the first treatment. I m not promising you that, because I m not sure about your case in general, but I do know it works if you give it time. So what should I do now? Stop what you re doing, think about what you want to do, then make a decision. Think back to the time when you were pain free and didn t have joint pain. Do you remember how good that felt? Well there is a chance... you can feel good again. Maybe not 100%, but better than you are right now. All you have to do is make up your mind, then make the call to my office. Why do you want to call now? Simple. People just like you are getting this report, and our available time slots do fill up. That means we can only take the first people that call because we do expect a large number of calls. Yes we want to help you, but you have to WANT to do this, otherwise you ll be wasting your time and money, and we ll be 9

10 investing our time and expertise in you as well and getting possibly some results that could have been better. Here s why I m telling you all this. We provide excellent service for joint pain sufferers, and we always strive to give you the best care possible. To help expedite this process, we provide FREE CONSULTATIONS to anyone that would like to discuss their joint issues, and how to finally get rid of their pain, but only if you mention this report. We re not giving you that FREE CONSULTATION because meeting with us has no value. We care about you, and this community, so that s why we d love to have you call the office right now and set up a FREE CONSULTATION with the doctor... as soon as possible. I ve never sent you a report like this, so I m going to limit this offer to the first 7 people. That means the next 7 callers to call my office, will get to schedule for one of these FREE CONSULTATIONS in the next couple of weeks. NO hype, no blind leading the blind type of thing... just facts, and a staff and doctor that care. My office wants to find out if our therapy is the right therapy for you, hence the real reason we re offering you or someone you know a FREE CONSULTATION. 10

11 Take Your Life Back If you are ready to take your life back, get the swelling down, turn the redness away, get rid of some of your agonizing pain, plus get you in a situation whereas you can stop popping pain pills, now s the perfect time to learn what you can do at home to help you get rid of your joint pain. Pick up your phone right now, dial our office number and schedule an appointment. You ll feel right at home, you won t be pushed into anything, and this really is good enough to market. Call our office at(425) to schedule your free consultation with our trained staff for the non-surgical joint pain solution. Sincerely, Dr. Lyle Love Laser Joint Centers th Ave NE Kirkland, WA P.S. Don t forget. There are only going to be a few of these FREE CONSULTATIONS available to the general public, so if you re serious about helping yourself or someone close to you, get rid of their joint pain, now s the time to do something about it. This is not some scare tactic. It is just the truth. You have joint pain, you ve had it for a long time most 11

12 likely, and if a few weeks of rest doesn t or did not get rid of your joint pain fast, something else needs to be done, done fast, and this is it. I know a friend of mine who more or less woke up one morning with swelling, severe joint pain, and hardly any range of motion. Both his knees and shoulders were abused when he was younger by playing football, by working on your cars, and thinking his joints were bullet proof. My friend had been working out, but he wasn t lifting heavy weights. He would do about three sets of exercises and nothing too strenuous. He was just the type to get himself hurt, and he did. He was strong, but sometimes people s egos get in the way and even the best thought out plan to get trim and fit... fails miserably. Here s the good news. As soon as he started on my exclusive laser type joint pain treatments, his range of motion improved and his pain went away. This was only after finding out which protocol worked BEST for him.
