Unlike most existing light therapy devices, which are large and clunky in design, The Litebook® is extremely compact, lightweight yet durable, portable, and aesthetically pleasing. The Litebook® also features several innovative elements: bright-white light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and optional DC power supply for use on airliners and motor vehicles.

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy is an effective way to rejuvenate the skin, giving it a more youthful appearance. Light-based treatments use a less-intense, broader spectrum of light than lasers, but are effective in treating rejuvenation of the skin. Candela's Ellipse I2PL is the only light-based product that is built specifically to dual-filter light as it is absorbed, thereby generating more consistent results.

A growing body of research demonstrates that the effectiveness of light therapy is less dependent on the intensity (LUX) of the light source than it is on the wavelength of the light. Numerous research reports on the same peak wavelengths of light emitted by The Litebook® and The Litebook® Elite™ conclude that it is these wavelengths of light that are the ‘action spectrum’ for light therapy.

Some offices deal with the problem of conversational distraction by installing "White Noise" sound masking systems, which typically involve speakers placed in the plenum above the ceiling. These devices help reduce the intelligibility of nearby speech; users often assume they are hearing the sound of the air conditioning system. However, this is a one-size-fits-all approach that doesn't let users adjust the volume and content of the sound being played.

Antibiotic therapy is based on the theory that inflammatory rheumatic diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, scleroderma, lupus, juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, polymyositis, ankylosing spondylitis, etc. have an infectious cause such as mycoplasma and other bacterial L forms. Significant evidence supporting this theory has been published in medical literature for decades.

Exposure to bright light effects changes in a person's circadian rhythms. Thousands of people find relief through bright light therapy, though the physiological mechanism is still uncertain. Such exposures suppress the secretion of melatonin (which makes us sleepy), and increase the secretion of serotonin (which keeps us alert and full of energy), but which of these influences are the primary mechanism is not yet known.

Gary Craig, the founder of EFT, says "You can fill in the blank with almost any emotional issue or physical ailment. Examples have been.... The answer to all these questions is...Yes! There is a high likelihood that, properly applied, EFT will either improve or completely eliminate the problem. That does NOT mean, however, that EFT has been perfected to the point where it can cure everything. On the contrary, we still have a lot learn about its uses...AND..

Light emitted from a laser diode is monochromatic (having only one wavelength), parrallel and coherent (having waves with similar direction, amplitude, and phase). These qualities make laser light much more valuable for therapeutic benefits.

Experiments indicate that individuals who suffer from Seasonal Affective Disorder (S.A.D.) are affected by light, which plays a major role in the secretion of melatonin. Melatonin is a natural hormone made by your body's pineal gland. This is a pea-sized gland located just above the middle of the brain. During the day, melatonin levels are barely detectable in individuals who don't suffer from S.A.D.

Therapy tends to focus on finding the answers to questions from the past that have shaped who you are now. Coaching focuses on who you are today and who you want to be tomorrow. Coaching also helps you find the answers to whatever questions you have that are preventing you from playing full-out. In short, working with a coach means getting in action, implementing new skills, changes, or goals, and making sure that you accomplish everything you say you want.

Light therapy is the shining of bright light into your eyes, typically for a half hour each session. Mood & Sleep Disorder clinics recommend 10,000 lux light levels Since the 1980's, light therapy has become the first line treatment for Winter Blues and SAD. Bright light can also be used to shift your circadian (wake/sleep) cycle, so it is used to prevent jet lag, minimize work shift change fatigue, and help abnormal sleep phase insomnias.

Light Force Therapy uses light emitting diodes or LEDs to produce a unique combination of frequency and wavelength of safe low-level infrared light, which helps to elevate muscle tissue temperature and increase circulation. All of these factors are essential in relieving discomfort and relaxing muscles, making Light Force Therapy extraordinarily effective. Light Force Therapy is free from dangerous UV and laser rays.

Laser Therapy or "photobiomodulation", is the use of specific wavelengths of light (red and near infrared) to create therapeutic effects. These effects include improved healing time, pain reduction, increased circulation and decreased swelling. Laser therapy adds energy to living systems. While we are able to explain many of its molecular and biochemical effects, it also adds energy at atomic and subatomic levels.

Traditional radiation therapy affects everything in its path, so doctors have to limit the dose delivered to the tumor in order to minimize damage to surrounding healthy tissue. With proton therapy, however, the beam is accelerated to specific energies that determine how deeply in the body protons will deposit their maximum energy. Protons enter the body with a low dose of radiation, which increases when the beam slows down within the designated target tumor and then protons stop.

Yes. They are approved as medical devices according to 93/42/EEC (the EEC-directive competent for Medical Products). This is the responsible and official European directive for all medical products, which are produced and sold in the EEC.

Low laser therapy devices are class III lasers or “cold” lasers. Their power ranges are in the range of 5 milliwatts to 500 milliwatts. The K-laser is a high-powered therapy device ranging upto 6000 milliwatts; however, the K-laser is power adjustable from 100 milliwatts to 6000 milliwatts allowing for a wide range of treatment protocols. This power and penetration of the K-Laser system is not attainable with cold laser devices.

Magnet therapy claims to eliminate physical pain in a specific localized area of the body. The QLink boosts your system’s efficiency and enhances the body's recuperative abilities.

Maintenance therapy is treatment that is given to extend a patient's response. In cancer, it can mean regular doses of an anticancer therapy, designed to maintain a patient in a remission (a stable condition), improve his/her response, prevent a future relapse or spreading of the tumor to other areas of the body. There are no definitive guidelines on the time frame to receive maintenance therapies.

Bright light therapy involves the regular (usually daily) exposure to a bright light source. Treatments typically involve an artificial light source of accepted therapeutic intensity and having peaks in specific wavelengths, with exposure duration of a set period and distance from the light source.

Light therapy involves exposure to intense levels of light under controlled conditions. The recommended light therapy system consists of a set of fluorescent bulbs installed in a box with a diffusing screen and set up on a table or desktop at which one can sit comfortably for the treatment session. Treatment consists simply of sitting close to the light box, with lights on and eyes open.

Recent studies show that light therapy can be helpful year-round for people who experience chronic depression, unpredictable recurrent depression, or bipolar depression, and the method has been effectively tested in patients using medication and even electroconvulsive therapy. The addition of light therapy to the regimen must be under doctor’s supervision.

Therapy generally focuses on emotional healing, the causes of behavior and how the person got to where they are. Coaching looks ahead and focuses on action and removing obstacles which prevent you from moving forward. Some people work with a coach while they are in therapy.
