Light Therapy is a relatively new field of treatment. It can be of help to people with widely
ranging ailments such as soft tissue injuries, fibromyalgia, repetitive stress
disorders, TMJ, chronic pain syndrome, carpal tunnel syndrome, degenerative
joint conditions like arthritis or bone spurs, sinus problems, or headaches. National
Geographic Magazine™ calls light therapy “light that heals” in their January, 2001 edition. Light Therapy is an adjunctive therapy which supports and
accelerates healing, it can be combined with many
other forms of treatment for exceptional results. It can successfully treat many conditions
which resist resolution through traditional means. Lumen Photon Therapy, Inc. is an innovative leader with 11 years
experience in the field of photon therapy.

Photon Therapy: Light That Heals By: Ron and Pamela Patterson Every living cell contains enzymes
that are triggered or turned on by specific light frequencies. Our molecular biochemistry is actually
nourished and modulated by light, and benefits greatly from the targeted
reception of light frequencies, increasing optimal function, detoxification
and actual cellular healing. Light
energy at specific wavelengths talks directly to our cells (photobiomodulation), turning on beneficial body chemistry
which can help us to restore normal function to tissues, relieve pain and
inflammation and rapidly heal from injury, surgery and chronic disease. Research indicates that
photon therapy further promotes healing by increasing the release of nitric
oxide which plays a role in immune response and neurotransmission; increasing
circulation and promoting vascularity; stimulating
the production of collagen to repair and replace tissue; stimulating the
release of ATP which increases the energy level within the cell; increasing
lymphatic system activity; stimulating fibroblastic activity to aid in
repair; stimulating growth of connective tissue; reducing the excitability of
nerve tissue and relieving pain. Lumen products use safe,
super-luminous light emitting diodes (LED’s) to produce photons at different
wavelengths in the near-infrared/visible red spectrums. The FDA has approved these powerful,
conveniently-sized models as capable of offering: 1. Increased local circulation (important for people
with restricted circulation in the extremities) 2. Reduction of pain (neck, back, joint, etc.) 3. Improved range of motion 4. Muscle relaxation, offering decrease of tension and
spasms Dr. Stan Gross, an
independent clinical researcher with multiple ongoing research studies which
use the Lumen products reports in a study of acute lumbar pain with over 100
participants a 93% reduction in pain along with a an increase in range of
motion. Interestingly this study also
shows an average 36% reduction in cortisol levels
and an average 27% reduction in histamine levels, both stress hormones which
are elevated in the inflammatory response and implicated in degenerative
disease processes. Ron Patterson, the VP of
Lumen Photon Therapy™ Inc., a forerunner in the field based in NC speaks
about his 11 years of experience with the lights: “I have used these lights
safely on babies, canaries, horses, dogs, cats and people for everything from
cuts and sprains to bone infections, and have continued to be amazed and
excited by the potential for individuals to receive relief from pain and
accelerate healing through access to this powerful and safe technology.” Photon therapy is an
amazing development, which is placing the power to accelerate healing and
live pain free in the hands of people around the world. Source:

What is Light Therapy? Light Therapy is a form of
treatment that has been independently studied for more than 40 years
worldwide. Visible and infrared light have
been shown to affect positive therapeutic benefits to living tissues and
organisms on a cellular level. Lumen’s
T equipment offers 7 specific settings to promote different levels of tissue
healing and regeneration. Pain and inflammation can
arise in people as a result of disease-based conditions, physical trauma,
work-related stresses, training, or other high performance activities. When looking for long-term solutions to
these problems, many traditional western medical practitioners have been
recommending the use of light energy therapy.
Clinical tests have been conducted by NASA, Stanford University, and
the Mayo Clinic, proving that light energy, or photon therapy, is able to
help relieve pain and inflammation. Light energy therapy
stimulates the natural healing power of the cells in your body. Photon therapy is a simple, effective,
non-pharmacological medical alternative to prescription medicine or invasive
surgery. In many cases the management
of acute or chronic injuries and post operative wounds now includes the use
of photon therapy because it is quick, cost-effective, and easy to
administer. Photon therapy is widely
used in human medicine in many cosmetic applications. Lumen Photon Therapy™
provides a new system of photodynamic therapy products utilizing
state-of-the-art technology, that can help provide a
complete and lasting resolution of many health issues when coupled with a
medical diagnosis. All Lumen™ products
are designed to help activate the natural healing processes in the body and
can be used in the home, office, or while traveling. Lumen Photon Therapy™ is an adjunctive
solution providing spectacular results in many cases. Mission Statement: The mission of Lumen Photon
Therapy, Inc.T is to bring the benefits of photon
therapy to those suffering from chronic or acutely painful and debilitating
physical conditions and injuries.
Lumen Photon Therapy, Inc.T is dedicated to
creatively and professionally developing effective treatment protocols,
training new technicians in the clinical use of photon therapy, and
supporting the expansion of the innovative field of photon therapeutic
treatment. |

Lumen Photon Therapy Frequently Asked Questions Treatment times vary widely
from individual to individual and situation to situation. Start with five to ten minutes per area and
adjust times or settings as necessary. How does this therapy actually work? Photon
Therapy temporarily increases localized circulation and reduces pain. With a 30 minute treatment researchers have
documented increases in localized circulation of 350% and greater (up to
3200%). Increases in circulation are a
fundamental basis for the healing that occurs when medical professionals use
ultrasound and whirlpools. Why are some diodes visibly bright while others are
not lit? The lights that appear not to be lit are in
fact functioning but they are not visible to our eyes. These infrared diodes are beyond the
visible spectrum of human beings. How quickly should I expect to see improvement? In some
situations, such as osteo-arthritis with pain and limited
range of motion, we often see people notice a difference with only a 20-30
minute treatment. In most situations
we recommend treatments daily for a week to ten days and expect changes
within that time. Why is this therapy called
photon therapy? Non-substantive particles of light called
photons have no mass and no charge but are electromagnetic in nature. It is these photons that interact with
cellular tissue, producing what is called photobiomodulation,
i.e., healthy changes in the body. What is the NICO setting? A programmed
pattern including settings # 2,3,4, and 5 in five
minute cycles. NICO automatically runs
for six cycles of five minutes each.
This composite setting works well with most musculo-skeletal
problems. What is the best setting for acute pain? Setting 7 is
the best setting for pain. Setting 7
combined with NICO works well, too. |

What Does Light Therapy Do for Animals? The following statements are not FDA approved for
human application ·
Increase vascularity (circulation) by increasing the formation of new
capillaries, which are additional blood vessels that replace damaged
ones. New capillaries speed up the
healing process by carrying more oxygen as well as more nutrients needed for
healing and they can also carry more waste products away. ·
Stimulate the production of collagen Collagen is the most common protein found in the body. Collagen is the essential protein used to
repair damaged tissue and to replace old tissue. It is the substance that holds cells
together and has a high degree of elasticity.
By increasing collagen production less scar tissue is formed at the
damaged site. ·
Stimulate the release of adenosine triphosphate(ATP) ATP is the
major carrier of energy to all cells. Increases
in ATP allow cells to accept nutrients faster and get rid of waste products
faster by increasing the energy level in the cell. All food turns into ATP before it is
utilized by the cells. ATP provides
the chemical energy that drives the chemical reaction of the cell. ·
Increase lymphatic system activity Edema, which is the swelling or natural splinting process
of the body, has two basic components.
The first is a liquid part which can be evacuated by the blood system
and the second is comprised of the proteins which have to be evacuated by the
lymphatic system. Research has shown
that the lymph vessel diameter and the flow of the lymph system can be
doubled with the use of light therapy.
The venous diameter and the arterial diameters can also be
increased. This means that both parts
of edema (liquid and protein) can be evacuated at a much faster rate to
relieve swelling. ·
Increase RNA and DNA synthesis This helps damaged cells to be replaced more promptly. ·
Reduce the excitability of nervous tissue The photons of light energy enter the body as negative
ions. This calls upon the body to send
positive ions like calcium among others to go to the area being treated. These ions assist in firing the nerves
thereby relieving pain. ·
Stimulate fibroblastic activity which aids in the repair process. Fibroblasts are present in connective
tissue and are capable of forming collagen fibers. ·
Increase phagocytosis, which is the process of scavenging for and ingesting
dead or degenerated cells by phagocyte cells for the purpose of clean
up. This is an important part of the
infection fighting process.
Destruction of the infection and clean up must occur before the
healing process can take place. ·
Induce a thermal like effect in the tissue The light raises the temperature of the cells although
there is no heat produced from the diodes themselves. (The therapy equipment will be warm to the
touch because of the electronics needed to power the diodes.) ·
Stimulate tissue granulation and connective tissue
projections, which are part of the
healing process of wounds, ulcers or inflamed tissue. ·
Stimulate acetylcholine release Acetylcholine causes cardiac inhibition, vasodilation,
gastrointestinal peristalsis and other parasympathetic effects. |
