Testimonial from Judy Jones, Ft. Collins, CO The Well Beam has become my friend. After I saw my mothers improvement of going from morphine to Tylenol and now taking nothing for her pain, I am a believer in how it can work. Using the Well Beam on my stomach has helped control a bacterial infection I have had and so I use it daily.
Light Therapy for skin conditions, also referred to as photorejuvenation, is an exciting alternative health treatment for dermatology facial treatments and acne because it is easy to use and affordable for professional or in-home use for anti-aging treatment, reducing wrinkles, improving skin elasticity, and the healing of acne and other skin impurities.
When I used the device, I didnt feel anything except that the pain just ebbed out, said Brinkworth, 58, who regularly abuses her body on her motorcycle and horse. Adventure junkies need this.
LED Light Therapy has been shown in over 40 years of independent research worldwide to deliver powerful therapeutic benefits to living tissues and organisms. Both visible and infrared light have been shown to effect at least 24 different positive changes at a cellular level. Dr. Richard Wurtman, Professor of Endocrinology at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), states that wavelengths of light are similar to vitamins and minerals, in that humans require a broad spectrum of frequencies for physical, emotional, and mental well-being. Ruth Sword, Ft. Collins, CO Light Sound Therapeutic Technology has aided my body in a non-invasive healing process. Using the Well Beam unit on parts of my body that have pain and poor circulation has stimulated a change in those conditions. I have far less pain (for the most part no pain), better circulation and range of motion. I will continue to use this healing device to treat my autoimmune disease. I believe it will relieve muscle inflammation and generate new and healthy cells.
Light Sound Technology actively searches for skin care products that are natural alternatives to Botox and expensive cosmetic surgery or risky antibiotics that you can use in the privacy of your home. The LED Light therapy products, LST recommends are below, and give you a choice in cost and method. These LED Light Therapy products stimulate cellular regeneration and cellular production. Cosmetic Lasers and LED Light Therapy have shown to reverse and control the visible signs of aging and help you look years younger. The FDA Approved LFT NOVA is becoming one of our most popular LED Light Therapy Systems. Our LFT FRK Kit is a Cosmetic Infrared Light therapy system utilizing the energy of light, called photon energy, to stimulate the activity of certain cell components. By using photo energy, you have a simple, effective, non-pharmacological medical alternative. It is quickly effective, cost effective, and easy to administer. Light is energy that moves in a wave pattern. Light is also characterized by its wavelength in the electromagnetic spectrum. There are components in the tissue and blood that absorb wavelengths and activate normal cell activity. The reason for this increased cell activity is the photon. The photon is the energy portion of the light wave. For this reason we often refer to this therapy as PHOTON THERAPY.
Once delivered, the light energy promotes the process of photobiostimulation. The positive effect of photobiostimulation on animal cells is analogous to photosynthesis in plant cells, whereby a chain of chemical reactions are set in motion. In human tissue the resulting photochemical reaction produces an increase in the cellular metabolism rate which expedites cell repair.
Detoxification Protocol
The Light Therapy LEDs are not just powered by standard voltage means, but are also strobed at specific proprietary healing frequencies. Jef Harvey designed this protocol based on the fact that LED units have been proven to increase RNA-DNA synthesis, increase phagocyte cleanup activity, increase the formation of new capillaries, modulate the cristae within the mitochondria to thereby stimulate ATP release, stimulate cytochrome oxidase and stimulate fibroblast activity which is important for connective tissue and collagen formation. This protocol can be used to begin a gentle detox prior to commencement of a cellular level detox. By stimulating the elimination organs and the liver and kidneys first, and then the lymph nodes and other energy centers second, the lymph flow of these elimination channels can be more than doubled. In addition to being able to begin in a gentle detox, this protocol can also be used to reduce the Herxheimer reaction of a more aggressive detoxification protocol. The Herxheimer reaction is best described as the almost flu-like symptoms that sometimes include nausea, headache and even diarrhea that accompany more aggressive
detoxifications. The reaction is nothing more than your body signaling you that it is attempting to eliminate at a higher rate than it can actually process the toxins and dead cells from the die off of parasites and diseased cells that are being eliminated. By utilizing the Light Therapy, the Herxheimer reaction is dramatically reduced when the elimination channels more than double their processing power.
Dr. Richard Wurtman, Professor of Endocrinology at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), states that wavelengths of light are similar to vitamins and minerals, in that humans require a broad spectrum of frequencies for physical, emotional, and mental well-being. Testimonial by Sharon B.,La Porte, Co I had a light therapy session yesterday at the clinic. I have been losing sleep with the pain in my left hip-waking up frequently to reposition myself. After the one 20 min treatment, I would estimate about 60-70% improvement-much less pain. I did wake up, but more from habit and went back to sleep. That is pretty impressive since I have had that condition for a couple of months now. I am very excited about this and bought a unit. It is much easier to use it at home than to run to appointments at the clinic. My mother wants a unit as well. She suffers greatly from pain of extensive osteoarthritis. Ill keep you informed of our progress. Thank you, thank you.
amount of time and, in some cases, at a specific time of day. Light therapy directed at the skin is used to treat acne vulgaris and neonatal jaundice. Light therapy which strikes the retina of the eyes is used to treat circadian rhythm disorders such as delayed sleep phase syndrome and can also be used to treat seasonal affective disorder, with some support for its use also with non-seasonal psychiatric disorders.
The red light increases collagen production, the protein responsible for your skin firmness and elasticity. It also increases muscularity by making new capillaries. With increased circulation and oxygenation, more blood is flowing to your skin tissues and nutrients carried by the blood allow the body to heal and repair skin tissue.
Testimonial by Eva T., Binghamton, N.Y. My niece gave my husband Joe the Light device because he had such neck and back pain. He was undergoing dialysis three times per week, suffered from Cohn's disease, and had a history of heart ailments so was on a multitude of medications, so nothing could be done about the neck and back pain. At first he was very skeptical that it could help, but the device ended up being his constant companion day and night. Since he passed in March of 03, it has become my companion. Before using it I couldnt comb my hair because my shoulder was so stiff and sore. Now Im starting to use it on my swollen feet too. I just put the unit under each foot whenever I sit to watch TV on and off during the day. Then in bed I place it on the blue blinking mode on my stomach and have been sleeping longer and sounder than in years. I dont know what I would do without it!

Why Use Light Therapy for Psoriasis, Eczema and Other Severe Skin Conditions?
Dermatological conditions can be treated utilizing red light therapy. The red light is know for its healing qualities as well as for it's anti-aging benefits for the skin. Light Therapy helps reduce inflammation, and balances sebum and oil production. The Light Therapy is used to help suppress inflammation on the skin, and allows the skin cells to heal naturally.

Although many clients have reportedly been able to discontinue or downgrade their medication, including morphine, it is recommended that you work closely with your primary health practitioner for any medication changes. Will this therapy work over clothing? Although we recommend direct contact with the skin, when possible, the LEDs will be effective over clothing. If at all possible try to use it over natural fibers such as cotton or wool. If natural fibers are not available then wear a thin material such as rayon, nylon, or polyester. However, length of treatment time might be less when there is direct contact with the skin. Can I use this unit with a pace maker? We could find no specific research contradicting the use of LED devices with pacemakers. Consequently, it would be wise to consult your primary medical practitioner or a doctor with a working knowledge of light and vibrational therapies. I live alone. can I treat myself? Yes. The device is designed to be lightweight and easy to handle. When treating your hands the device can be placed in your lap.

Thomas L. Jackson, Natural Health Practitioner Tasmania, Australia I have just added light therapy products to my practiceand have found that combining the relaxing and healing effects of the lights with my normal use of acupuncture, spinal manipulation and herbology, shortens down-time and increases the potential for higher performance levels in the race and show horses I treat. I have also used light therapy on dogs, bulls, cattle and people with excellent results.

Denver Business Journal Karen Cochran, 58, turned to Light Therapy after everything she tried for her migraine headaches failed to work. Ive tried doctors, chiropractors, osteopaths, Tylenol and Demerol, the Elizabeth resident said. Then I did some light therapy treatment. About 15 minutes later, I didnt have a headache at all.

Lucy J., New Jersey Pain relief for dying cat: Our 13 year old cat woke me up at 4 A.M. and it was obvious that she was suffering and in a lot of pain. Since both my husband and myself used the Well Beam for arthritic pain relief, I hoped it would comfort Precious until the vet clinic opened and we could have her euthanized. We had been expecting this day for some time. After a twenty minute treatment, she jumped off the bed and ran to her food dish. She ate well and then curled up and went to sleep. I gave her a treatment about every hour until the clinic opened at 8 A.M., and she showed no more signs of being in pain. I bless the day we bought this Light Wave unit. The anxiety of watching her suffer would have been intolerable.
Sharons Mom, Illinois Mom used it a lot today and is excited by how easy it is to use and that she doesnt have to worry about too much. She is already feeling some relief in a knot that she gets in her back and she said she could feel a change in her hands already. She is really severely crippled from osteoarthritis almost doubled over at waist and one hip totally gone. When I talked to her she was yawning and ready to go to bed she also has trouble sleeping probably from pain so I am thinking she will sleep better even tho she didnt want to try blue light at navel until tomorrow. She is doing really well at absorbing the directions I am so glad that she was open to doing this. Ruth Sword, Ft. Collins, CO Light Sound Therapeutic Technology has aided my body in a non-invasive healing process. Using the Well Beam unit on parts of my body that have pain and poor circulation has stimulated a change in those conditions. I have far less pain (for the most part no pain), better circulation and range of motion. I will continue to use this healing device to treat my autoimmune disease. I believe it will relieve muscle inflammation and generate new and healthy cells.

Dan & Dee, San Diego, California AARP supports healthy choices: I received a free demo at the AARP conference and was amazed to wake up the next morning without the usual stiffness in my back and joints. You might remember me as the one who literally ran up the aisle that morning to purchase a unit. My wife and I used it on and off on our drive back to California from Vegas, and we returned home with high energy and less stiffness. Delores played 18 holes the next day. People who are at high heart attack risk might find this as a pain management alternative. Good luck to you guys. Mary Beth, D., Equine Rehabilitation Therapist, Conn. Although I bought your Light Unit several years ago to help relieve pain and increase circulation and flexibility in the show and race horses I treat, I wanted to give you feedback on how I used it on myself and my son. I have had five surgeries (over twelve years) on my wrists for carpal tunnel and have scars from the elbow to the wrist. Massaging horses and reining is really tough on my arms and wrists, and my doctor suggested surgery again. I figured I would use Light Therapy first and maybe be able to put the operation off until work slowed down. That was two years ago and I have not needed the surgery thus far. I also use it regularly for backaches and on my stomach when I get over-stressed and cant sleep. When my son dislocated his pinky playing football, he lost the range of mobility and a cyst formed below the wrist. After surgery he used the light unit to help with flexibility and control post-surgical pain, and surprisingly the cyst disappeared within two weeks. This also was two years ago. I have many more experiences with cats and dogs which I would be happy to tell anyone who would listen. This is a remarkable technology and from my personal investigations, backed by scientific data and years of clinical research. The unit has saved me thousands of dollars too. There are just so many positive things to say about it.

Geary Morales, Milwaukee, WI. Hi, my name is Geary Morales from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Heres my story about the amazing therapeutic powers of Light For Therapys light and sound healing device and protocol. As unfortunate as it was at the time, my most confidence building and healing experience with the Light For Therapy device was in the Fall of 2005. I was returning from a special event one early Saturday morning, when I was viciously blind-sided attacked in an assault where I was left unconscious for three hours. Miraculously by the grace of God, somehow I woke up and managed to walk home, with a bloodied concussion to my head and bodily injuries to the entire left side of my upper body. Very grateful, but still shook up and in physical and emotional pain, I decided to put the Light for Therapy device to the test which I had acquired about a month earlier. For one whole week, three to four times a day in 20 to 30 minute sessions, I faithfully applied the Light for Therapy device strategically to my head, neck and my entire upper torso while listening to the audio relaxation CD that accompanied it. I was amazed on how it relieved the pain little by little, building on each session, I fully recovered with no permanent damage to my head, my body as well as my emotional psyche. I credit it of course to my faith in God, prayer and the incredible healing properties of the Light for Therapy device which without a doubt eliminated any desire or need to see a hospital emergency room or physician for any follow-up rehabilitation. As Im sure you can appreciate, you can now understand without hesitation, why I strongly recommend to anybody that is affected by physical pain and/or emotional stress, should not hesitate to invest in Light For Therapys breakthrough light and sound rehabilitative therapy devices.
