  7. LIGHT IS THE UNIVERSAL HEALER

  8. Electromagnetic Spectrum

  9. Proton-Neutron-Electron Newtonian Description

  10. Atom

  11. Proton • Number of protons produces different magnetic fields • 20 protons = calcium atom • 79 protons = gold atom • 1 proton = hydrogen atom • An atom cannot gain or lose a proton

  12. ION • Hydrogen ion is a hydrogen atom (single proton) that loses its electron and is positively charged • Atom that gains or loses an electron and becomes either positively or negatively charged is an ion

  13. pH • Stands for “potential hydrogen” • pH is determined by the amount of hydrogen ions present • More hydrogen ions = acid • Fewer hydrogen ions = alkaline

  14. Redox Potential Describes the quality of a system measured in millivolts either as Electron rich referred to as reduced Electron poor referred to oxidized Which in turn regulates the system

  15. PHOTONS • Are small packets of light energy in the form of a wave element with a defined wavelength & a frequency related to that wavelength

  16. Objective of Study • Determine the effectiveness of the Q Laser System in controlling symptoms of Osteoarthritis of the Hand • Over the Counter • Placebo controlled

  17. INSTRUMENTS • Q Laser System **Q1000 -8 LEDs and 12 5 mW laser diodes arranged to form 6 direct soliton waves and 32 indirect soliton waves **Ultra Probe - single diode 50 mW continuous beam enhancer probe

  18. Study Protocol

  19. Results

  20. Are small packets of coherent light emitted by cells for intercellular communication

  21. Results

  22. Laser Energy Coherent Monochromatic

  23. Wavelength = Color Wavelength Blue Light Wavelength Red Light

  24. Cosmic Rays • Gamma Rays • X-Rays • Ultraviolet • Visible Light • Infrared • Microwaves • Radio waves • .0000000001 • .000000001 • .000001 • .00001 • .0005 • .01 • 10 • 10,000 Wavelength In Millimeters Lasers are measured in Nanometers

  25. FREQUENCY • Pulse Frequency or Number of pulses per second Altered by movement

  26. Frequency • One way frequency works is by Canceling Waves • ½ cycle off

  27. CONSTRUCTIVE INTERFERENCE When the combined amplitude of waves is greater than individual amplitude, the signal gets stronger.

  28. Harmonic Resonance Is the same thing as constructive interference

  29. CONSTRUCTIVE INTERFERENCE

  30. DESTRUCTIVE INTERFERENCE When one wave is peaking & the other is troughing, they cancel each other out

  31. Out of Resonance When the waves are not converging and cancel each other

  32. DESTRUCTIVE INTERFERENCE

  33. Frequency • One way frequency works is by Canceling Waves • ½ cycle off

  34. Canceling Waves

  35. Laser Output Power • Measured in milliwatts (mW) • Higher power output over similar area = higher power density • Variation of Output Power affects results

  36. 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

  37. Joules • Measurement of energy delivered by a laser-Dose • Formula: Output x Time ÷ Area

  38. Dose • Measured in J/CM2 is the Energy Density of the photons emitted

  39. Penetration • The ability to get laser energy deep into the tissue is a key to success

  40. Soliton Wave

  41. HOW LASER ENERGY HEALS • Low Level Lasers re-energize sick and injured cellular membranes allowing nutrients to pass through.

  42. Best Laser Results • STIMULATE • Nerves, bone, joints, tendons, cartilage & ligaments • RESONATE • Muscles, organs, glands • Acupoint Therapy with the right laser

  43. LEDs What about them?

  44. Uses of Low Level Lasers? • Better answered by asking “What CAN’T Low Level Lasers be used for? • Answer: Nothing!

  45. HOW LASER ENERGY HEALS • Low Level Lasers re-energize sick and injured cellular membranes allowing nutrients to pass through.

  46. Final Quote “You cannot unknow what you now know” Dr. Larry Lytle
