Guest guest Posted December 9, 2003 Report Share Posted December 9, 2003 Neat stuff on the light info. I have treated some of my Ayurveda clients with colored light therapy, with great results. I myself don't need to wear bifocals any more from using a high tech 'Intelligent' stage light. I use a controller and can set either cool sessions, warm sessions, or a mix. Green also kills germs, and I use it with all sessions. The colored light can heal any part of the body, if taken into the eyes. I have tried local treatments as well, and found some benefit, but not as much as having the client sit, and watch the rotation of the colored lights. None of these are LED by the way, although I have some units that do that. Two of my diabetic clients received benefit from the colored lights, and of course, herbs. Blessings, Whitneay T.

" God wants you to live your dreams " -- More Light Therapy Info Cell Powerhouses In the late 1990s, lab studies on cells showed that near-infrared wavelengths can boost the activity of mitochondria, the crucial powerhouses in cells. That caught the attention of NASA, which hoped it could use the technique to treat astronauts in space, where injuries heal more slowly than on Earth, possibly because mitochondria do not function properly. The treatment requires high-intensity light, but instead of lasers, NASA has developed powerful light-emitting diodes for the job. Lasers tend to damage cells, whereas LEDs can deliver light in a way that is less harmful to tissue (New Scientist magazine, 25 September 1999, p 20). Now Harry Whelan, a neurologist at the Medical College of Wisconsin in Milwaukee, and his colleagues have put the LEDs to the test on eye injuries. In a study that will appear in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Whelan blinded rats by giving them high doses of methanol, or wood alcohol. This is converted by the body into formic acid, a toxic chemical that inhibits the activity of mitochondria. Within hours, the rats' energy-hungry retinal cells and optic nerves began to die, and the animals went completely blind within one to two days. But if the rats were treated with LED light with a wavelength of 670 nanometres for 105 seconds at 5, 25 and 50 hours after being dosed with methanol, they recovered 95 per cent of their sight. Remarkably, the retinas of these rats looked indistinguishable from those of normal rats. " There was some tissue regeneration, and neurons, axons and dendrites may also be reconnecting, " says Whelan. Painful Sores The results have raised the hope that the LED technique could be used to treat people for a range of eye diseases known to be caused by mitochondrial problems. Whelan also thinks it will help treat laser injuries to the retina, apart from areas where cells have been completely destroyed. Whelan has already tested the LEDs on 30 children suffering from mucositis, a painful side effect of cancer chemotherapy. The children had painful sores in their mouths and throats and were unable to eat or drink, he says. The LED treatment eliminated the mucositis and is now being used to prevent it. " It's a night and day difference in the children's floor, " he says. The results appeared in the Journal of Clinical Laser Medicine and Surgery in December last year. The Food and Drug Administration has now approved further trials in hospitals, which will use LEDs donated by NASA. What is not yet clear is exactly how the light stimulates healing. But Britton Chance of the University of Pennsylvania has shown that about 50 per cent of the near-infrared light is absorbed by mitochondrial proteins called chromophores. Whelan and his colleagues think the light boosts the activity of a chromophore called cytochrome c oxidase, a key component of the energy-generating machinery.

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2003 Report Share Posted December 10, 2003 Hi: This was a most interesting post and I have a couple of questions for Ms. Vanwells and " V " and anyone else who might be kind enough to share their knowledge. I have been researching color and light for pain relief plus dermal and internal healing, but most recently as an application for behavior modification to specific ends. My questions are: 1. Do you choose specific frequencies within a color range to affect the particular condition you are addressing by using gels such as those offered by gamcolor, rosco, or lee or are you using generic commercial filters like those on standard stage color wheels? 2. Which type bulb for broadcast and power supply for leds would you choose to provide the most consistent source of illumination?

Guest guest Posted December 10, 2003 Report Share Posted December 10, 2003 Hi Dear, To answer your questions on colored light therapy, I suggest that you get this book: http://www.amazon com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0890877629/qid=1071077853//ref=sr_8_xs_ap_i0_xgl1 /104-8433567-0760751?v=glance & s=books & n=507846 The book is the latest research in colored light. Each person is individual. I used a pendulum, and a color chart to find out what my client needs. It is 100% accurate and testable, if you are familiar with pendulum work. When inflammation is present, I use the greens, and blue tones. For low energy I use red. Green where infection is a problem, and also the dark Indigo blue works on infections. I used to use the colored gels that you mention, but now the Intelligent light that I use has all of them built in. Not sure on the LED question. I also travel with the photon lights. They are small and can fit into a pocket. At a shoe store once the clerk had red hair, red skin, and bright red eyes. I asked him if his eyes burned, and he said yes, that he had trouble with that. I let him use the blue photon light while I tried on the shoes, and his eyes started to water in a few seconds (release of too much heat and inflammation). This happened in under 30 seconds, that is how powerful colored is. Blessings, Whitneay T.
