Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to determine that 830nm diode laser directly above the transverse carpal ligament (between the pisiform and navicular bone) on subjects' wrists, and test this therapeutic effect.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The low level laser instrument (Painless Light PL-830, Advanced Chips \& Products Crop., USA) emitted two light beams with a distance of 2.5cm between them by two laser diodes.
