Uses of Low Level Lasers? • Better answered by asking “What CAN’T Low Level Lasers be used for? • Answer: Nothing!
Low Level Laser Power • RESONATE – Under 5mW Muscles, Organs, Glands • STIMULATE – From 5mW – to 500 mW • Nerves, Bone, Joints, Tendons, Cartilage & Ligaments • Acupoint Therapy – 2-4 Joules
Biostimulation • Arndt-Schultz Law of Biology • Weak Stimuli Excite • Strong Stimuli Retard • Optimal Dose Range 4 J/cm2 • Varies For Each Individual • For Wounds - as Healing Occurs, Reduce Laser Dosage
Energy The Essence of Life
Energy Cannot be Created OR Destroyed – OnlyTRANSFORMED
UNIVERSAL FORCES • Electromagnetic Field Photon is the messenger particle of the EMF • Strong Force Gluons smallest bundle of the strong force • Weak Force Bosons –smallest particle of the weak force • Gravity Graviton is the smallest particle of gravity
SALUTOGENESIS • Organisms way of healing itself via Aether Derived Energy (ADE) also called “Life Force” which in turn reverses cellular Homeostasis Decay
CELLS • LOW LEVEL LASER THERAPY • Restores lost electrons to cell membranes • Normalizes DNA & Makes healthier cells • Enhances Cellular Redox activity • Balances the sodium-potassium pump • Produces endorphins to control pain & makes healthier cells
PHOTONS • Are small packets of light energy in the form of a wave element with a defined wavelength & a frequency related to that wavelength
Biophotons • Are small packets of coherent light emitted by cells for intercellular communication
BIOPHOTONS (cont’) • Cells generate Charge Density Pulses (CDP) between cells via infrared wavelengths • Cells produce their own Soliton Waves
Osmosis • Nutrients cannot pass through the depolarized cellular membrane of an injured cell
One of the Most Important Principles • Resonating Soliton Wave Low Level Lasers re-energize sick and injured cellular membranes allowing nutrients to pass through.
COHERENCE • Means the photons are well-ordered or are in synchronicity
Laser Energy Coherent Monochromatic
Wavelength = Color Wavelength Blue Light Wavelength Red Light
FREQUENCY • Pulse Frequency or Number of pulses per second Altered by movement
Frequency • One way frequency works is by Canceling Waves • ½ cycle off
CONSTRUCTIVE INTERFERENCE When the combined amplitude of waves is greater than individual amplitude, the signal gets stronger.
DESTRUCTIVE INTERFERENCE When one wave is peaking & the other is troughing, they cancel each other out
Laser Output Power • Measured in milliwatts (mW) • Higher power output over similar area = higher power density • Variation of Output Power affects results
Power Density • Light concentration-Energy Density – W/cm2 • More power is not better • Body sets up impedance, or polarizes against, too much power and becomes less effective
Polarization • Your body’s way of protecting itself against unpredictable energy
Joules • Measurement of energy delivered by a laser-Dose • Formula: Output x Time ÷ Area
WAVE • Are encoders & carriers of information • When they overlap, the combined amplitude is greater than each individual wave
Penetration • The ability to get laser energy deep into the tissue is a key to success
Best Laser Results • STIMULATE • Nerves, bone, joints, tendons, cartilage & ligaments • RESONATE • Muscles, organs, glands • Acupoint Therapy with the right laser
LEDs What about them?
