So I stumbled across green light therapy and am wondering if anyone has tried it for pain relief.

They put rats inside container which had green light around the edges and compared the pain tolerance before and after the treatment.  The green light therapy increased the rats pain tolerance greatly. 

All lights stimulate neurons to fire. However green light produces the smallest reaction from neurons compared to other colors.

It sounds interesting, but would it not be better to try to find the root cause of the pain?

If there is a way to treat the pain then yes they should do that. Otherwise they may want try Green light therapy. I don't have pain except when I stub my toe or try to do something productive. The latter is so painful.

Looks like it’s meant for pain that can’t really be treated.  Not sure it would hurt anyone but right now it’s being tested for HIV patients ( according to your article). Would be great if it reduced the amount of pain meds.  

Not sure why you have pain .... I hope it has been diagnosed because treated Celiac should not cause pain everyday

      gluten-free Oatmeal

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
