209 - The Missing Link to Healing Faster from Pain, Injury, and Surgeries with Ellen Day

Be You Podcast

Ellen Day left corporate sales several years ago to start Elite Laser Austin, a laser therapy clinic in Austin, Texas exclusively dedicated to helping people heal faster. Having worked in the pharmaceutical industry for many years, she had the opportunity to observe clinical medicine in all types of specialties. She noticed a distinct lack of focus on healing root causes, a lack of answers for patients who had questions about how they could optimize their healing, and a hard push towards pharmaceuticals and surgery for pain and inflammatory conditions that could benefit from alternative modalities of healing, including laser therapy (also called photobiomodulation). One of her favorite things is facilitating healing and better outcomes for people who had come to the conclusion that they would just have to live with pain. Laser therapy is quickly emerging as one of the most reliable and powerful ways to heal the body, and Ellen is thrilled to be able to help more people experience this miracle every day!
