I dont have experience with laser treatments for DVT, as this is not a typical procedure for this diagnosis.

If you are correct laser therapy is not appropriate for this procedure.

Deep venous thrombosis is typically not treated by laser. It is treated with blood thinners, or dissolving the clot, and or compression stockings. Please seek expert opinion from a vascular specialist in your area.
