FAQs

Can I Be Allergic To Oxygen/Ozone?

It is impossible to be allergic to oxygen/ozone. Ozone is an energized form of oxygen. Ozone is naturally formed by the sun and lightning in storms. Without the ozone layer high in the atmosphere, life could not exist on our planet. Ozone actually filters out the sun’s harmful ultraviolet rays and, in addition, makes for that beautiful blue color in the sky.

Is There Any Science To Support Oxygen/Ozone Therapy?

The scientific literature is vast in support of the effectiveness and safety of oxygen/ozone therapy. Recently, the International Academy of Oral Medicine and Toxicology (IAOMT) reviewed and accepted Oxygen/Ozone in Dentistry as scientifically valid.

How Does Oxygen/Ozone Therapy Work?

Oxygen/Ozone, when introduced into the living system, creates what is called a “transient oxidative burst.” Pathogenic “biofilms” and microorganisms have no natural defense against this reaction and, as a result, are overstressed and die. Surrounding healthy tissue is unaffected and there are no toxic side effects. This “oxidative burst” also induces a multitude of natural biochemical and physiologic reactions, including better blood flow, enhanced immune response, and a more rapid healing response.

Light Therapy and Sound Therapy for Sleep

<a href=”http://www.lightsoundtechnology.com”>Sleep disorders can have many causes and may be of many types; Insomnia is a familiar amongst the many types of sleeping disorders. Medication often proves to have worst side effects and the body builds a resistance or a dependency to the commonly used sleep drugs as well. Whether the causes to these sleep problems are deeply psychological or related to more common reasons such as seasonal affective disorder, light therapy, especially blue light and dawn simulation, have been highly effective in providing relief to patients and helping them sleep when they need and want to.

Sleep Disorders

SAD, Insomnia, Circadian rhythm sleep disorder and Narcolepsy are the most common disorders that affect the sleeping patterns of people on a regular basis all over the world. These disorders are deeply related to the biological clock of the human body, and light treatment uses this clock by affecting its reactions through the use of bright light stimuli. This is done in order to ‘set’ this clock, allowing patients to sleep proper hours and at timings which cause the least disruption of normal daily hours for work and family life. The therapy is not used to cure any possible root cause (such as psychological causes – even though light therapy has had success in helping treat psychological disorders such as SAD and bipolar disorder), it generally elicits and reinforces desired behavior while offsetting the undesirable behavior by resetting the biological clock.

How light therapy affects Sleep cycles

Our body clock must be in sync with our natural inclination (natural cycle) in order to sleep well. This clock can be offset by a number of causes; such as depression, SAD (winter depression etc), illness or irregular sleeping hours. This lack of sleep and the offsetting of the natural clock can then lead to deeper effects such as increased depression, exhaustion and lack of energy and lack of sleep (insomnia).

Bright Light; Clinical tests have shown that the pineal gland in the eye is affected by the presence of any bright light. This gland acts to regulate our natural biological clock (the body clock), which, in turn is connected to our sleeping habits (the natural sleeping patterns our body adheres to come from the body clock), mood, sexual drive and even our eating habits.

Blue Light; The retinal receptor in the eye is the receptor that interprets and responds to the wavelength of the light entering the eye. Tests indicate that his receptor responds more to particular wavelengths of light, including blue light (405 to 425 nm). This receptor sends signals to the part of the brain (hypothalamus) which controls sleep, hormonal function and our emotion levels (moods.)

Therapy; Light therapy can be planned around the type of disorder. The schedule and frequency / duration of the treatment depends upon the type of disorder, how it affects the sleeping patterns (how much sleep is being attained and at what hours?) and what the possible causes are. The therapy can be scheduled to provide the stimulus using a light source (such as those found at clinics or the portable ones which can be used at home) at appropriate times in order to technically reset the biological clock (with the treatment continued over a set period of time) until the subject becomes accustomed to a desirable sleeping routine. The better sleep will in turn induce better moods and remove insomnia and lack of energy.

Light Therapy for Acne Solutions and Skin Care

Millions of people have the skin problem acne, or acne vulgaris (as the medical community refers to it). Many believe that it is only for ‘younger/teenagers’, but many adults also have acne problems. Acne can lead some people to be ‘socially insecure’, and tends to lead others to being shy. Acne develops as a result of blockages in follicles and even being stressed or sweating a lot. Over the past decade or so, light therapy has been a way to possibly treat acne, especially using blue ‘l.e.d.’s’.

The Well Beam is a perfect compliment to home use in it’s ability to tackle issues ranging from pain and stress to skin care issues and sleep problems. It uses ‘blue’ l.e.d.’s, along with red, that have been shown to help in reducing acne. I think that it’s great because everyone in the family has different issues that they need to take care of, including the pets and this does it for all!

We live in troubled times in which we are losing the battle with health care costs, lack of insurance, losing our jobs, etc. and have to start taking the time and responsibility for our own health. We have to start thinking outside of the box in terms of what we can do for our own health.

Light Therapy has been used for acne, with the visible violet light which is present in the sunlight activates a porphyrin that damages and kills the bacteria which cause acne. Many people suffer from some form of acne, and Light Therapy is an alternative that has shown many positive results without the side-effects associated with other modalities. The Well Beam offers the combination of ‘red and blue’ light therapy wave lengths (along with infar-red) that provides a great one-two punch for you body to not only help with the problems associated on the ‘top’ of the skin, but also getting deep into the tissue, ligaments, bone, etc. of your body. Using the machine in combination with the sound therapy provides an experience to also help with sleep issues, stress reduction, and the relaxation effect without having to take any pills or any other outside means. Finally, what is great, is that it is used in the comfort of your own home, on your time.

It is important to protect the eyes from the light as this may be harmful to the chemicals in the retina.

More about Light Therapy for Acne:

A major factor in causing or aggravating acne is the use of harsh cleansers. People who are looking to avoid acne often mistakenly believe that treating their skin with these cleansers will eliminate the underlying causes of their acne, while instead they may be over drying their skin, causing irritation and ultimately leading to more acne breakouts, in some cases even more accelerated and worse! Skin cleansers should be mild, and need to be used gently. Also important is not to use them too often. Another thing with some of the ‘cleansers’ is that they put many more ‘toxins’ back into our bodies, which could lead to more problems down the road.

This treatment has proved to be more effective than Benzoyl Peroxide which is often used to cure acne. Also, there are very little (if none at all) side effects using the L.T. Light Therapy for Acne truly works!

Blue light therapy acne treatment has recently been approved by the FDA to treat mild to moderate acne. The development of acne blue light therapy has had significant benefits for those who have not responded well to other of methods of treating common acne.

Light exposure has long been used as a short term treatment for acne. Recently, visible light has been successfully employed to treat mild to moderate acne (phototherapy and/or deep penetrating light therapy) – in particular intense violet light (405-420 nm) generated by LED’s (Light Emitting Dio’s) or lasers. If used a couple of times per week, it has been shown to reduce the number of acne lesions by about 64% and is even more effective when applied daily. The mechanism appears to be that a porphyrin (Coproporphyrin III) produced within P. acnes generates free radicals when irradiated by 420 nm and shorter wavelengths of light. Particularly when applied over several days, these free radicals ultimately kill the bacteria. Since porphyrins are not otherwise present in skin, and no UV light is employed, it appears to be safe, and has been licensed by the U. S. FDA.

Light Therapy Products for Pain Relief,depression,acne, skin care issues

You may or may not have heard of infrared light therapy before now. After being used in Europe, NASA, and many hospitals for years, infrared light therapy has built up quite a track record for being both safe and highly effective when used as directed. The Light Relief unit is now taking the pain relief and therapeutic benefits of infrared light therapy out of the doctor’s office and the hospital and putting it right into the palm of your hand. LightSoundTherapy has hand-held, easy and safe device’s used in the comfort of your own home, which delivers a concentrated pulse of infrared light and heat right where it’s needed: The source of the pain.

In fact, it’s fair to call this therapy infrared pain relief. Infrared pain relief works by gently heating the tissue to which it is applied, promoting muscular relaxation at the pain site. Those receiving infrared pain relief also experience a very pleasant slight warming sensation in the areas where the light is applied. The Light relief unit offers you the freedom to apply this pain relief therapy whenever and wherever you need it, without having to schedule a doctor’s appointment.

Perhaps one of the best things about infrared light therapy is that it’s completely natural pain relief. It’s natural pain relief because there are no drugs or implants used. Infrared light is as natural as sunlight falling onto your skin. Natural pain relief is the best kind of pain relief there is, because there’s nothing to have an adverse reaction to or develop a dependency on. With Light Sound Therapy, natural pain relief is always right at your fingertips. You can feel free to use it in the comfort and privacy of your own home, office, hotel room, or even your car (especially if you order the optional car adapter). The LightSoundTherapy Nova unit is a perfect compliment for anyone with pain issues, stress issues, and skin care issues, used in the comfort of your own home.

Light Therapy and Sound Therapy for Depression

Light therapy and sound therapy for Depression

Light Therapy for Depression and Sleep Problems

The production of the hormone melatonin, a sleep regulator, is inhibited by light and permitted by darkness. To some degree, the reverse is true for serotonin, which has been linked to mood disorders. Hence, for the purpose of manipulating melatonin levels or timing, light boxes providing very specific types of artificial illumination are effective.

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD):

People with seasonal affective disorder go into depression like states during the winter months. This is seen in places where the amount of daylight is very less in these seasons (countries near the North Pole, for instance). The cure for these people is full sunlight. So, light boxes which replicate sunlight conditions are used for these patients. These use artificial illumination to re-create the fully lighted atmospheric conditions that are normally present in sunlight.

While full sunlight is preferred for seasonal affective disorder (SAD), light boxes may be effective for the treatment of the condition. The United States Food and Drug Administration has not approved the use of light boxes to treat SAD due to unclear results in clinical trials, but light therapy is still seen as a possible form of treatment for SAD. Direct sunlight, reflected into the windows of a home or office by a computer-controlled mirror device called a heliostat, has also been used as a type of light therapy for the treatment of SAD.
It is possible that response to light therapy for SAD could be season dependent.

Dr. Normal E. Rosenthal’s seminal 1985 paper defining Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) was the first to describe application of bright artificial light in the treatment of winter depression. Rosenthal’s hypothesis was that lengthening the daily photoperiod (in effect mimicking summer day length in the northern latitudes) would effect a remission of winter depressive symptoms.

Non-seasonal depression

Light therapy has also been suggested in the treatment of non-seasonal depression and other psychiatric disturbances, including major depressive disorder, bipolar disorder and postpartum depression.. A meta-analysis by the Cochrane Collaboration concluded that “For patients suffering from non-seasonal depression, light therapy offers modest though promising antidepressive efficacy”.
Circadian rhythm sleep disorders

Delayed Sleep Phase Syndrome (DSPS):

People suffering with Delayed Sleep Phase Syndrome (DSPS) have problems sleeping and often end up falling asleep way past midnight and thus have difficulty waking up in the morning. In these cases the light must be provided as soon as the patient wakes up. Light therapy is useful for the people suffering from DSPS because it causes dawn simulation.

Chronic CRSD

In the management of circadian rhythm disorders such as delayed sleep phase syndrome, the timing of light exposure is critical. For DSPS, the light must be provided as soon after spontaneous awakening as possible to achieve the desired effect, as shown by the phase response curve for light in humans. Some users have reported success with lights that turn on shortly ”before” awakening (dawn simulation). Morning use may also be effective for non-24-hour sleep-wake syndrome, while evening use is recommended for advanced sleep phase syndrome.

Other Benefits of Bright Light Therapy

Increasingly, light therapy is being used to reset our body clocks – sometimes along with melatonin and sometimes on its own-no matter how or why they’ve been put off track. Scientists are discovering that light therapy may have potential for treatment of several other disorders in addition to that of SAD. Another area where bright light therapy has proven itself beneficial is in the area of sleep disorders. Advanced sleep phase syndrome (ASPS) is characterized by premature sleep onset and early morning awakening. Future applications of bright light therapy may well include any area where a disease or syndrome recurs seasonally, shows winter exacerbation, or plausibly is related to insufficient or ill-timed outdoor light exposure regardless of the season.

Light Therapy for Skin and Acne

Help yourself look Better, look Younger, Naturally, with www.Lightsoundtechnology.com, where we combine light therapy and sound therapy to help the body and mind with our skin issues, pain relief, stress relief,anti-aging,a a host of other modalities. Our Well Beam and our Skin Rejuvenation Kit are great compliments.

It’s a fact, light therapy for skin is an effective skin care treatment. Professionals such as dermatologists and spas are using the technology as an anti-aging or acne solution. There have been studies that have shown that up to 90% of people see improvements of their skin condition, it became inevitable that home use devices would be created from the professional technology and equipment you can find at dermatologists or skin care centers.

So what light therapy can do for your skin ?

As we said earlier, light therapy (for skin) is mainly used to treat aging and acne. It is very common to see that red light therapy is associated with anti-aging and blue light therapy to fight acne.

Red Light Rejuvenates Your Skin

In the anti-aging process, what is important is the collagen production, and red light therapy stimulates the collagen production. Collagen is responsible for the elasticity and firmness of your skin, resulting in the reduction of fine lines and wrinkles. The collagen is also the protein that repair damaged skin cells. You look younger and have a healthier skin.

Blue Light Kills Acne

The blue light therapy kills the Propionibacterium acnes bacteria. This bacteria is one of the cause of acne, and is sensitive to light in a certain range (405 to 420 nm). The bacteria absorbs the light and the light kills the bacteria. Acne vanishes as a result. Because red light is more the “healing light”, it is also used for acne : it reduces the inflammation caused by acne, reduces scarring and sebum and oil production. You look better, your skin is clear.

Born From NASA Research

The LED light therapy technology has been researched by NASA, not just for skin problems, but also to fight cancer, for pain relief purpose and even to grow plants. Light therapy is also used for affective disorders, sleep disorders, to boost energy, but this is not the same kind of light. We would just want to warn you : because this technology has been researched by NASA doesn’t mean your device is equipped with the exact same technology.

So yes, light therapy devices are actually “based on a technology researched by NASA” but when you see products advertised with some “NASA” words, this is just a bit of marketing only. Of course, this is still LED light therapy, and light therapy devices you will find on this website have all proven to be effective.

Where is Light Therapy Used

Light therapy has found many uses in different areas. For example, it is used to treat a variety of skin diseases and it is used to treat mood and sleep related disorders as well. Let us have a look at the various places where light therapy is being used.

Acne:

It has been known since a long time that sunlight helps cure the bacteria which cause acne. The visible violet light which is present in the sunlight activates a porphyrin that damages and kills the bacteria which cause acne. And this process does not cause any tanning or sunburn. However, during the course of this treatment, it is important to protect the eyes from the light as this may be harmful to the chemicals in the retina. This treatment has proved to be more effective than Benzoyl Peroxide which is often used to possibly cure acne.

Psoriasis:

One of the common problems of people suffering with psoriasis is skin inflammation. Narrow band ultra violet B rays are given as a light therapy on the skin surface which is inflamed. The ultra violet rays help suppress the inflammation on the skin.

Psoriasis

Wound Healing:

It has been found that infrared light releases nitrous oxide in the blood stream which increases the circulation of blood in the area where the light is directed. This is very helpful for people, who due to various diseases such as Diabetes find it very difficult to heal wounds on the surface of the skin. This is also helpful for patients suffering with Neuropathy, Ulcers and for patients whose blood circulation is improper.

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD):

People with seasonal affective disorder go into depression like states during the winter months. This is seen in places where the amount of daylight is very less in these seasons (countries near the North Pole, for instance). The cure for these people is full sunlight. So, light boxes which replicate sunlight conditions are used for these patients. These use artificial illumination to re-create the fully lighted atmospheric conditions that are normally present in sunlight.

Depression:

This is a non-seasonal kind of depression. But light therapy has shown interesting results in the treatment of such patients as well. A similar kind of treatment method is followed for treating these patients as with the people affected with SAD. The results are faster compared to the use of anti-depressants.

Delayed Sleep Phase Syndrome (DSPS):

People suffering with Delayed Sleep Phase Syndrome (DSPS) have problems sleeping and often end up falling asleep way past midnight and thus have difficulty waking up in the morning. In these cases the light must be provided as soon as the patient wakes up. Light therapy is useful for the people suffering from DSPS because it causes dawn simulation.

Delayed sleep syndrome

Jet Lag:

It has been seen that exposing the person suffering from jet lag to light at appropriate times before, during and after the air travel can actually reduce the effects of jet lag and help the body to adjust easily to the time differences. This process has even been used by NASA to train its astronauts for late night launches.

Jet Lag

Heliotherapy:

This is a very popular term which is used to describe light therapy, and is used in spas and such places. These places use various forms of light therapy to provide tanning beds and booths and even tanning lamps which use both ultraviolet and infrared rays of light for providing treatment to their customers.

Heliotheraphy

When not to use Light Therapy

However advantageous light therapy may be, there are certain times when light therapy is not advisable.

It has been observed that exposure to too much light can cause skin damage as well as destroying the amounts of vitamins A and C in the skin, and it can damage the generation of free radicals in the body. It is for this reason that it is said that light therapy should always be taken in the presence of a licensed practitioner, qualified doctor or dermatologist.

Light therapy used for patients suffering from depression can also cause maniac states (which are the absolute opposite of depressed states) because of the mood alteration effect produced by it. As such, it can also be considered similar to taking mood-altering drugs. Hence, it is always advised to take such therapies under the consultation of a qualified medical practitioner only.

In some cases, where the patient suffers from phototoxicity (light can kill the cells), or has a photosensitive skin or is taking certain medicines which can create such conditions, light therapy is not advised. Also, with patients that have a tendency towards manic behavior, light therapy is not advised.

Your skin has the ability to absorb infrared light and use it as a source of energy to stimulate cellular regeneration. Infrared LED light therapy, first researched by NASA for use in the U.S. Space Program, can reverse and control the visible signs of aging and help you look years younger without harsh chemical treatments or invasive surgical procedures. Dramatic tightening of skin, smoothing of wrinkles and rough spots, disappearing blemishes, softening of redness, and shrinking of pore size can be achieved with this natural light treatment. In addition, the unit can be used to effectively treat minor muscle and joint aches, sprains, back pain, muscle spasms, the pain and stiffness associated with arthritis, and more.

Infrared LED light stimulates your skin to produce collagen and elastin

The infrared light produced by LED lamps, aka photo rejuvenation, stimulates fibroblast cell activity in the skin, which increases the production of collagen and elastin—the proteins responsible for your skin’s tone and elasticity.

How are LEDs different from Laser and Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy?

Other light-based skin therapies including intense pulsed light and laser treatments rely on thermal injury to the skin’s collagen, water or blood vessels to create changes in the skin appearance. LED Skin Rejuvenation does not rely on thermal energy and the related tissue trauma to effect change. Therefore, patients are not subject to the variables associated with wound healing.

Skin conditions improved by infrared LED light therapy:

·

Tired, aging skin: ·

Hyperpigmentation — age spots, freckles, uneven pigmentation due to sun exposure, etc: ·

Acne and blemishes:Does infrared LED light treatment hurt? Are there any adverse effects?

Application of LED light feels comfortable and relaxing. It is gentle, painless, safe, non-invasive and nonabrasive. There is no “down time” after treatment. It is safe for any age, color, and skin type, and can be used on any area of the body (face, neck, chest, arms, hands, legs, etc). Those with very sensitive skin or rosacea should go slowly at first to make sure this powerful treatment does not cause a flare-up.

When will I see results?

Depending on the light you are using and treatment time, noticeable changes are typically seen within 30-45 days; and the skin continues to improve as long as you continue to use the light. Some people see results with our DPL System

™ after just a few days of using it for 9 minutes twice a day! However, each person responds at different speeds depending on their physical condition, age, skin condition, diet, alcohol consumption, smoking habits, etc.WHAT CAUSES ACNE?

Researchers Get Better Understanding of How Light-Emitting Diodes (LEDs) Rejuvenate Skin and Reduce Wrinkles

Oct. 17, 2008 — The same tiny lights found in electronic billboards and traffic lights might zap away wrinkles and lead to younger-looking skin without the need for cosmetic surgery or Botox, say researchers in Germany.

Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) have been used for more than 40 years to speed wound healing, and they are already being used in skin rejuvenation procedures, but until now, researchers have not understood exactly how they work. Now they do.

The research centered on elastin — the protein involved in skin elasticity. With age, elastin fibers break down and the skin loses its ability to bounce back.

Researchers Andrei P. Sommer and Dan Zhu of the University of Ulm in Germany have discovered that during aging, water layers surrounding elastin fibers change and affect the elastin fibers. This may contribute to the formation of wrinkles.

The researchers theorized that they could use high-intensity visible light from LEDs to change the molecular structure of the water layer to free up elastin. They used an array of LEDs that gave off 600-720 nanometers of light. To prevent any adverse effects to the cells from the light penetrating the skin, the doses were adjusted to temporarily increase circulation.

After nine weeks of daily treatment, participants had a noticeable reduction in wrinkles. The LED therapy led to rejuvenated, younger-looking, and more resilient skin, according to the researchers.

Because elastin also provides elasticity to the blood vessels, heart, and other structures in the body, the researchers say LEDs might be useful for other therapies, as well. “We are justified in believing that our approach can be easily converted to deep-body rejuvenation programs,” they write in the Nov. 5 issue of the American Chemical Society journal Crystal Growth & Design.
