Book excerpt: "The primary aim of this project was to assess if a 10 mW infrared laser had any specific effect when used in a course of laser acupuncture(LA) for the treatment of chronic non-specific low back pain. In order to attempt to refute the hypothesis tht the whole effect of the treatment was due to other effects not related to the laser, the design of this investigation was a double blind randomised controlled trial comparing (LA) against a control sham treatment".--Synopsis, leaf 7.
