FAMU Athletics received an in-kind donation of a brand new Diowave 60-watt high power therapeutic laser, donated by Technological Medical Advancements (TMA) of Rivera Beach, FL. The laser has a retail value of about $50,000.
“The class 4 laser has the ability to accelerate athletic recovery anywhere from 25 to 75 percent faster than normal healing," said Bruce Coren, DVM, CEO of TMA. “It will stimulate tissue healing and tissue regeneration.”
The lasers are used by the University of Michigan which owns three of the machines, and the defending Stanley Cup champion, St. Louis Blues hockey team.
“Florida A&M now has the best technology in the world to accelerate athletic injury recovery,” said Coren.
