About 4 weeks ago I started doing Quantum Light Therapy Sessions with Dolf at FUEL. After only a ffew fe w se sess ssiio ss ions I h ions ave av e st sta t sessions have started to see! When I look at the TV screen I can now see characters and also some colours. When I walk outside I am able to see vehicles and the white stripes on the crosswalk. I was not able to see any of these things before using the light therapy. Thank you Dolf for all your help!”- Sonny “Our daughter was diagnosed with a slipped femoral head epiphysis in both her hips. After surgery she began experiencing pain and using crutches and a cane. We decided to try the low light therapy suggested by Dolf. We used the light therapy diligently for 1 week. Within a couple of days we were able to reduce her medication and within a week, she was off the medication all together and walking without the use of crutches or cane.“ - Kristen Jones
