What is Phototherapy

The science of phototherapy, which has been around for about 100 years, uses light to improve the health of the body. As far back as two thousand years ago, the ancient Greeks had a center for studying the effects of different colored lights on the body. Even the ancient Egyptians, who promoted health by focusing sunlight through colored glass on certain areas of the body, understood this concept.

For centuries, phototherapy has been used to improve health. Phototherapy, sometimes called light therapy or photobiomodulation, works by using a mechanism to reflect or shine light into the body. With LifeWave, our patches reflect your energy back into your body.

By capturing visible and infrared light, acupressure works like acupuncture, which is based on the concept that we all have a human energy field that flows through “meridians” in the body. The belief held in traditional Chinese medicine is it is necessary to avoid blockages of Qi energy in those meridians to live well.

By applying slight pressure to various points corresponding to the Chinese tradition, the belief is that doing so will lead to a better state of wellness.
