coMra therapy uses a combination of low-level laser therapy with the healing radiances of colour and magnetism. (The coMra Delta device also uses ultrasound.) This is a powerful combination of therapeutic treatments that helps to relieve acute and chronic health complaints affecting the body and brain.

The COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown restrictions in South Africa are exacerbating mental health struggles, with 33% of South Africans reporting feelings of depression during the first lockdown period.3 If you, like many South Africans today, are struggling with your mental health, know that you’re not alone and help is available. Devices like the coMra Delta and the compact hand-held coMra Palm make it easy to access LLLT treatment regularly in the privacy of your own home.

This testimonial comes from South Africa:
“I treated a man of 92 years for depression. After less than two weeks he reported that not only had his depression disappeared, but his urinary problems had also vanished.”

Here are the recommended coMra protocols to help combat the symptoms of depression and anxiety.
