WHAT IS LIGHT:WHAT IS LIGHT:

The human body

absorbs light through

the eyes, the skin

and the diet as

oscillating energy

and supports a wide

range of biological

functions

WHAT IS LIGHT:WHAT IS LIGHT:

Only the close affinity to the light, makes it possible to us to perceive light.

But only though the absence of light we can experience and detect the presence of light.

WHAT IS LIGHT:WHAT IS LIGHT:

Only the change of light and darkness, only the rhythm of day and night, shows us the whole spectrum of life. All life is subject to the ever-changing rhythm of day and night.

WHAT IS LIGHT:WHAT IS LIGHT:

Every cell in our body responds to these changes and each cell is ultimately nourished by light energy.

Sunlight with an incredibly broad spectrum of waves gives us not only life, but it is also fundamental in maintaining good health.

SHORT BIBLIOGRAPHY ABOUT LIGHT:SHORT BIBLIOGRAPHY ABOUT LIGHT:

... The first techniques for the medical application of light and colour was written down by the following personalities:

The light bath called „Sit-Down“ that Kellogg developed in 1891.

The system was worldwide popular.

Even Thomas Edison had one.

Kellogg offered all year round artificial light treatments in his Sanatorium.

1958 was the development the first Lasers with the Publication, “Infrared and Optical Masers, by Arthur L. Schawlow and Charles H. Townes

This scientific Paper in the "Physical Review”, the journal of the American Physical Society, started a new scientific field and opened the door for a Multi-Billion Dollar Industry.

He could prove in various experiments that an ultra week radiation of light is responsible for growth and development of all living organisms.

He also could show that photons / light radiation – can support and interact with the communication the various organisms .

Light radiation must be absorbed to produce a biological response.

All biological systems have a unique absorption spectrum which determines what wavelengths of radiation will be absorbed to produce a given therapeutic effect.

• Most systems use a continuous light beam in the wavelength range between 385 - 3500nm.

• This treatment reduces infections and supports natural healing mechanisms.

• The systems are easy to handle.

• In many cases light therapy also helps where traditional medical methods fail, and in many cases without additional medication.

• One session per day, approximately 10 - 20 sessions over 4 weeks is average required. Ø The treatment durations are between 4 ~ 15 minutes per treatment area.

TREATMENT WITH LIGHTTREATMENT WITH LIGHT

1. Remove make-up, sweat and dirt with cleansing cream. In case of inflammatory skin dis-eases, cleanse smoothly.

2. Rinse cleanly so the Light can thoroughly the skin.

TREATMENT STEPSTREATMENT STEPS

3. Prepare skin or wound for treatment.

4. During the radiation, the patient feels in most cases no pain. One can carry goggles but with most light therapy devices it is not necessary.

TREATMENT STEPSTREATMENT STEPS

5. Soothe the skin after therapy with rubber pack, and so on.

The Low-Energie Laser

LLLTThe Low-Energie Laser

LLLT

• LASER = Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation.

• Laser consists of same wavelength, colour, form and direction.

WHAT IS A LASERWHAT IS A LASER

High / HLLT • Biodestructive• Surgical Laser• Hard Laser• Thermal Laser• Energy - 3’000 - 10’000mW

Low / LLLT• Biostimmulation• Medical / Cosmetic Laser• Soft Lasers• Sub thermal• Energy - 1-500 mW• Therapeutic (cold) Laser

produce max. energy of 90 mW oder less

• 400-1’000nm

HIGH OR LOW ENERGY LASERHIGH OR LOW ENERGY LASER

The working principal of a laser is called stimulated emission:

• Electrons are supplied with energy.• Electrons have the property of being in a low energy level.• They therefore emit energy in form of light.

HOW DOES A LASER WORKHOW DOES A LASER WORK

- The emitted Light moves between two mirorrs back and forth and becomes always stronger.

- One mirorr is pacially trasparent to light, so that light in form of a beam can be released.

A photon hits an excited atom...

and the atom emits a new photon that is exactly equal to the first.
