Overview

LIGHT THERAPY OVERVIEW

Visible red light, at wavelengths from 630 to 700 nm penetrates tissue to a depth of about 10 nm. Light at this wavelength is very beneficial in treating problems close to the surface such as wounds, cuts, scars, trigger and acupuncture points, and is particularly effective in treating infections. Infrared light (800 to 1000nm) penetrates to a depth of about 40mm and deeper which makes it more effective for treating organs and provide relief for ailments of bones, joints, deep muscle tissue.

The diverse tissue and cell types in the body all have their own unique light absorption characteristics; that is, they will only absorb light at specific wavelengths and not at others. For example, skin layers, because of their high blood and water content, absorb red light very readily, while calcium and phosphorus absorb light of a different wavelength. Although both red and infrared wavelengths penetrate to different depths and affect tissues differently, the therapeutic effects are similar.

Superluminous LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) are safe concentrated light sources used to produce the specific wavelengths of light that provide therapeutic benefits of light therapy without adverse side effects.

Pulsing the LEDs at specific rates known as Nogier frequencies produce bio-resonate effects that further enhance the therapeutic action. Precise frequencies discovered by medical researcher and physician Dr. Paul Nogier are found to resonate with specific body tissues and dynamically reinforce their healthy function.

WHAT IS DYNAMIC LIGHT THERAPY?

Sunlight is the principle form of energy enabling key biological reactions in both the plant and animal kingdoms and thus enables life to thrive on earth. Light is essential to life and, through various techniques, has been used therapeutically for centuries. Modern research into light therapy for over 40 years has proven that specific bands of light can evoke powerful therapeutic benefits to living tissues and organisms. Both visible red and invisible infrared light have been shown to effect at least 24 different positive changes at a cellular level. Every living cell absorbs, stores, and emits light. Light signals are intricately involved in cellular biochemical reactions. Different wavelengths of light have body tissue specific absorptive properties and stimulate key cellular processes that result in increased cellular metabolism, cell maintenance and repair. Modern superluminous LED technology pulsed at Nogier bio-resonate frequencies is a safe and highly effective technique to deliver the many health benefits of light therapy to the entire body.

The above chart describes the process of cellular light absorption and some of the key resulting biochemical events stimulated by light absorption. Increased ATP production results and a cascade of intercellular processes are energetically elevated.

Research indicates that light therapy may be beneficial in several key areas:

Inflammatory conditions (such as bursitis, tendonitis, arthritis, rhrinitis and chronic inflammation associated with Lyme's disease, and other infectious disorders). Acceleration of recovery of inflamed muscular and connective tissue resulting from athletic overexertion or ther strenuous activities.
Wood care and tissue repair (such as diabetic ulcers, venous ulcers, bedsores, mouth ulcers, acne, bone fractures, tendon ruptures, damaged ligaments, torn cartilage, surgical procedures, etc). Reduction in scar tissue formation from old or slow healing injuries.
Pain Control (eg. low back pain, neck pain, and pain assoicated with inflammatory conditions - carpal tunnel syndrome, arthritis, neuropathy, tennis elbow, golfer's elbow, shingles and post-herpetic neuralgia and complex regional pain disorders.
Stimulation of acupuncture points on the skin which can promote improved physiological body functions. This can stimulate the healing processes through increase of endorphins, modulation of adrenal gland activity, normalization of immune system activity, and autonomic nervious system stabilization.
Neurological normalization - light therapy can help reduce problems assoication with either an over aroused or under active nervous system.
Beneficial for both humans and pets. Appropriately used, it is safe for children and for the elderly.

The is portable and can be setup in a variety of positions or can be easily used as a handheld device. The controls are accessed from the front and side panels and setup is quick and simple.

Therapeutic Effects

WHAT ARE THE THERAPEUTIC EFFECTS?

Increases blood capillary circulation and vascular activity by promoting improvement in the metabolism of nitric oxide (NO). This facilitates improved regulation of vasodilation and leads to the formation of new capillaries - this in turn provides additional oxygen and nutrients
to accelerate natural tissue healing processes and eventually evokes a cascade of beneficial biochemical processes.
Stimulates synthesis of adenosine tri-phosphate (ATP)—an immediate energy source for muscle contraction and essential in the metabolism of all cellular processes and sustaining living systems
Relaxes muscles, reduces nerve excitability and stimulates nerve transmission
Reduces scar tissue and stimulates wound healing
Increases lymphatic system activity and relieves edema and discomfort associated with swelling
Stimulates acupuncture points and immune response
Stimulates production of collagen—the most important component of wound healing
Increases phagocytosis - the body’s natural process to scavenge dead and degenerated cells and is important to the infection control process required for healing
Increases RNA/DNA synthesis - this stimulates cellular reproduction and facilitates accelerated replacement of damaged cells
Increases production of endorphins and enkephelins from the brain - promoting pain reduction and mood elevation
Stimulates production of adrenals— which facilitate long term pain relief and resilience to stress
Reduces inflammation and swelling in chronic conditions of arthritis, bursitis, and tendonitis
Stimulates fibroblastic activity - promoting repair of connective tissue and formation of collagen fibers
Stimulates tissue granulation and connective tissue formation - an important process in the healing of wounds, ulcers and inflamed tissue

Dr. Tom Burke has written a series of articles summarizing the role of Nitric Oxide in the regulation of blood and lymph circulation and human health; and related health issues associated with diabetes. Dr. Burke received his PhD in Physiology from University of Houston, Post Doctoral Training at Duke Medical School, He was an Associate Professor of Medicine and Physiology at the University of Colorado Medical School. He has authored more than 70 published scientific clinical articles and has been a visiting scientist at the Mayo Clinic, Yale University, University of Alabama, and University of Florida. He is a recognized international lecturer on cell injury and nephrology. His articles are online at the website www.diabetesincontrol.com

The Nobel Prize was awarded to three Americans in 1998 for their work on discovering Nitric Oxide (NO) and clarifying its role in health to Robert F Furchgott, Louis J Ignarro and Ferid Murad for their discoveries concerning "".

They described the importance of the effect of NO on circulation and vasodialation. Research is revealing that NO levels and vasodilation is usually significantly disturbed in diabetic patients. Nitric Oxide metabolism is often very impaired in diabetic patients and improvement in nitric oxide metabolism may play a significant role in preventing some of the destructive health issues resulting from progressive diabetes. Research initially described by Dr. Furchgott is showing that light therapy is an emerging treatment modality for impaired NO metabolism. Light therapy shows great promise in producing significant health improvements in those compromised with complications of diabetes. The articles summarizing the critical role of nitric oxide regulation and significance of light therapy in NO metabolism by Dr. Burke can be viewed at the following link:
