Q1: What is Photobiomodulation Therapy(PBM)?
A1:Photobiomodulation (PBM) Therapy is the application of Red and Near InfraRed light in very specific colors, quantities, and at specific intervals to tissue that is sick, degenerating or has been injured. The adsorption of this light has been clinically proven to:
- increase cellular energy production
- increase circulation
- reduce inflammation these cellular mechanisms result in
- improved muscle performance
- increased exercise times and capacity
- Arthritis/ Degeneration
- Depression & Anxiety
- Fibromyalgia
- Tendonitis, Fasciitis, Bursitis
- Migraine Headaches
- Rheumatoid conditions(Lupus,Sjorren’s, Scleroderma)
- Parkinson
After exercise:
- Reduced pain
- Improved joint motion
- Support immune function
- Enhanced wound healing
- A release of certain brain compounds that positively affect mood and sleep
- And much more Photobiomodulation is safe and relaxing.
Q2: Does light therapy actually work?
A2: Light therapy is one of the oldest therapeutic methods used by humans, historically known as solar therapy by Egyptians.
Merican is a whole-body delivery system of Photobiomodulation (PBM) Therapy that has been designed to deliver optimal healing wavelengths, power densities, and dosages of red and infrared light, based on 3,500 clinical research outcomes published in the PBM literature.
Mitochondrial Energy Booster red and infrared light help our mighty mitochondria function better. Better functioning mitochondria mean more energy and less risk for disease. The skin is the organ that is naturally exposed to light more than any other organ. Red and near-infrared are the only wavelengths that penetrate through the skin. The photons are absorbed by mitochondrial chromophores in skin cells. Consequently, electron transport, adenosine triphosphate(ATP)nitric oxide release, blood flow, reactive oxygen species increase, and diverse signaling pathways get activated. Stem cells can also be activated allowing increased tissue repair and healing.
Q3： Why Red & Near Infrared Light?
A3： Numerous studies have shown that modern humans are not getting as much red and near-infrared (NIR)light as our ancestors did. When we factor in modern-day lighting, living and working conditions, it seems almost impossible to actually get natural red and infrared light on our bodies anymore! So why not bring red and near-infrared light inside? MERICAN LIGHT BEDS contain red and infrared wavelengths of light WITHOUT any nasty UV rays or EMFS.
Q4: How it works?
A4: LED light therapy (or photobiomodulation)is like photosynthesis for the body. It is a painless, non-invasive form of treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light to charge your cells and promote faster, deeper healing. Each Merican light therapy device accepts customized different types of LED therapy lights: different wavelengths of Red for Rejuvenation, Near-Infrared for strengthening pain treatment weight loss music recovery, and Yellow for skin Preparation; Blue for anti-bacterial, angles therapy. As well as special light for pain and pulsating to assist with cellular healing.
Q5:What can PBM Therapy Work for?
A5: Photobiomodulation therapy has been effectively used as a non-medical intervention for reducing recovery time resulting in athletes running faster and longer with less fatigue, lifting heavier weights, achieving higher benchmarks sooner, and recovering more quickly from injuries. It is a non-medical intervention for musculoskeletal and inflammatory conditions such as arthritis, muscle soreness, joint pain and stiffness, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, neuropathy, shingles, poor circulation, and accelerating visceral fat loss.
