As a practitioner, you know foot pain should be addressed as soon as possible, as pain in one or both feet can potentially lead to impairment of foot function. But rather than treating foot pain with over-the-counter pain and anti-inflammatory medications such as ibuprofen, or prescription nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), or even corticosteroid injections for chronic foot pain, why not try red light / infrared therapy?
Penn & Teller to Take on Chiropractic
The Showtime channel has announced a "controversial new series" entitled "Penn & Teller: Bullsh**!" The Las Vegas duo "promise an aggressive, irreverent exposé of taboo topics using the duo's trademark humor, knowledge of carnival tricks and con-artistry, as well as hidden cameras and blatant confrontation."Calling themselves the "self-proclaimed pit-bulls of truth," the entertainers will focus on "such sacred cows as chiropractic medicine, TV psychics, Feng Shui and second-hand smoke." They will also be looking at "alien abductions, Ouija boards and end of the world prediction, creationism, the purity of bottled water, global warming, miracle-workers and religious cults." The program will air at 11p.m. and is rated TV14.
