The science behind TheraLight
The science behind TheraLight revolves around Photobiomodulation (PBM), a cutting-edge technique that uses specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light. These wavelengths are absorbed by chromophores within the mitochondria of cells. This absorption stimulates cellular energy production, promotes healing, and combats oxidative stress. It’s a natural, non-invasive method of promoting overall wellness and combating various health issues.
TheraLight 360+ combats oxidative stress, preventing cellular damage and disease.
Photobiomodulation Therapy stimulates cell repair, reducing inflammation and pain for faster healing.
TheraLight 360+ improves recovery time, endurance, and strength for increased athletic performance.
This non-invasive therapy supports improved skin elasticity and muscle performance for enhanced overall wellness.
FAQs
How does photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy work?
The effects are photochemical, just like photosynthesis in plants. When the correct parameters are used, light reduces oxidative stress and increases cellular energy (ATP). This in turn improves cell metabolism and reduces inflammation.
PBM Therapy appears too good to be true as it has many applications, but really it does just one thing and it does it very well. It reduces oxidative stress. Oxidative stress is essentially an imbalance between the production of free radicals and the ability of the body to counteract or detoxify their harmful effects through neutralization by antioxidants, is critical in helping the body recover. Oxidative stress is accepted as the underlying trigger for most diseases and degenerative conditions. It is also a component in the inflammatory phase of acute and chronic injuries. Extensive research during last two decades has revealed oxidative stress can lead to chronic inflammation, which in turn contributes to chronic diseases including cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, neurological disorders and pulmonary diseases.
What can PBM Therapy work for?
Photobiomodulation therapy has been effectively used as a non-medical intervention for:
• Reducing recovery time
• Arthritis
• Muscle pain
• Joint pain and stiffness
• Fibromyalgia
• Chronic fatigue
• Rheumatoid arthritis
• Psoriatic arthritis
• Neuropathy
• Shingles
• Poor circulation
• Weight loss
Unlike drugs and surgery, PBM Therapy safely and effectively promotes cell regeneration and reduces inflammation and pain. PBM Therapy is non-toxic, non-invasive, and has no side effects.
What will I feel?
PBM Therapy does not heat tissue, it does however increase circulation so a warming sensation is often experienced.
Reported feedback:
• Temporary euphoric feeling
• Increased energy levels
• Improved sleep patterns
• Improved mood
• Improved skin clarity and tone
• Improved bowel function
• Decreased swelling of extremities
• Increased energy
• Increased mental clarity• Increased general sense of well being
These outcomes may not apply to every person, and are not intended to guarantee, promise, represent and/or assure that anyone will achieve the same or similar results. Occasionally some clients may experience mild fatigue, discomfort, or aches after treatment. These responses should reduce after 24 – 48 hours, if they persist notify your technician at your next appointment.
What session times are recommended?
20 minute sessions 2-3 x per week.
How many therapies are needed?
Every person’s condition is unique, therefore there treatment course is as well. However there are some general rules of thumb that apply to PBM Therapy.
Acute injuries and inflammation from muscle strains and sprains, cuts, bruises, burns, etc typically show very rapid improvement and can resolve in 1-2 weeks.
Long-term, chronic conditions can take 2-3 weeks to get significant benefits, weeks to months for maximum benefits, then weekly or bi-weekly sessions may be necessary to maintain benefits.
Does it get hot inside the bed?
No. The LEDs are cooled by a patent-pending cooling system to keep you comfortable.
