Garrett's passion throughout his life has been the continuous exploration of the question "what if?". This passion has led him down many different paths, eventually leading to health, healing, and science. Through his own journey he has come to see that there is far more people can do for themselves with respect to their health and wellness. Oftentimes what people can do for themselves may seem small and insignificant at first glance, and therefore easy to dismiss. However, upon closer examination and subsequent implementation these seemingly small and insignificant aspects add up sequentially to mark a very real and significant difference in the quality of one’s life. What if . . . people knew they could do far more to look after their own health than they ever considered possible? What if . . . people knew simple and practical ways to do this? What if . . . a very special question, not one to leave unexplored.

Knee arthrosis with oedema in a 64-year-old male
A 64-year-old male experienced strong pain, stiffness and swelling of his left knee. He was diagnosed with arthrosis with oedema, and MRI scans revealed degenerative substance loss in the pars intermedia of the medial meniscus and large cartilage injury Grade III-IV.
The male started coMra-Therapy treatments with the 980 nm Delta Laser on April 27, 2012 according to the Traumatology 10 and Universal 3 treatments (coMra-Therapy User Guide), daily for four months without taking breaks. On June 10th he switched from the 980 nm to the 905 nm Delta Laser. During the course of this study the male filled out Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) self-assessment questionnaires.
After the first month of coMra-Therapy there was no improvement. The WOMAC score remained at 45-47 (0 - worst possible, 100 - best possible) and there was severe pain during this period: the most severe level was between 5 and 7 (on a scale of 0-10). After the fifth week of treatment the pain started to decrease gradually and after three months of treatments most of the pain was gone. The WOMAC score improved to 82, but the male continued treatments with breaks, in the hope of a full knee recovery. After six months of coMra-Therapy his WOMAC score improved to 89-91 and remained at this level. In December 2013, one and a half years after the onset of symptoms he treats himself only now and then when there is a minor relapse.
