Here are some interesting links. The first one provides a LOT of info on laser/LED treatment theory. The second link provides DIY info on making your own unit for hair treatment that can also apply to healing units in general. The third is a cheap source for LEDs and 10 mw laser diodes. On the last one you will need to look for the laser link on the left. I was shocked at the prices online for commercial LED/laser healing units. WOW!

I suppose if you had all the machinery you could do it yourself. That is why they are much more expensive than the laser pens you see on ebay and elsewhere. The industrial grade 635nm diode is actually 10mw but exits the aperture at about 5mw. If you check pricing on industrial grade 10mw 635nm laser diodes you'll understand why the laser therapy pen is not cheap. The LEDs discussed earlier DO work they just don't penetrate as deeply. If you are trying to save $ that's a good way to go.

Would you be willing to share the "how to"?

Some folks on the silver list have also used red LED lights for hair growth. I designed my own laser unit and find it penetrates a little better than LEDs. Both will work though. http://www.freewebs.com/stevelevine/lasertherapypen.htm works well for pain relief too Steve
