Light Therapy
Harness The Power And Intelligence Of Nature With Light Therapy For Your Fur Patients
Photobiomodulation recognizes our intrinsic connection to light and utilizes it to restore health.
In medical light therapy, often referred to as “photobiomodulation,” we deliver therapeutic dosages of light to humans or animals. The photons are absorbed by light receptors, abundant in all forms of life. Beneficial “primary,” “secondary,” and “cascade effects” are the immediate consequences of this light exposure.
These effects include:
- Enhanced mitochondrial ATP production
- Improved cell signaling
- Improved growth factor synthesis
- Attenuation of oxidative stress
This therapy allows us to treat the root causes of diseases instead of just the symptoms. When administered correctly, it is free of side effects.
Light therapy impacts the fourth phase of water within our cells, optimizing cellular function and promoting overall well-being.
Light therapy is one of the incredible tools that can turn your practice into a powerhouse of healing
Think of it as your superpower, ready to conquer the kryptonite of conventional limitations
Based on the stimulation of a light-sensitive substance (photosensitizer) which is infused into the bloodstream, injected locally or applied in form of a cream. The photosensitizer binds with high specificity to pathologically changed tissue. When stimulated by (laser) light active oxygen radicals form and destroy this tissue without harming the surrounding healthy tissue. The most common photosensitizers are:
- Riboflavin
- Hypericin
- Chlorin E6
- Indocyanine green (ICG)
- Curcumin
They can be administered orally or as infusion.
Besides photodynamic tumor therapy PDT can be performed to treat bacterial, viral and parasitic diseases (anti-microbial PDT). The key benefit of this approach is the combat of multiresistant pathogens.
