Sometimes it requires multiple sessions.  05:12 Photobiomodulation literally means light, biology and changes. It happens when we are in the sun.  06:17 Photobiomodulation works on mitochondria.  09:02 Mitochondria respond to infrared and red light spectrum leads to our genes triggering recovery and healing, encouraging the multiplication of cells, mitogenesis, and preventing early apoptosis.  10:36 Red light and infrared light therapy is accepted as a treatment for improving circulation, body pain and injury.  11:06 Infrared goes deep. Red light treats the superficial level, so it is good for skin conditions. Blue light is antimicrobial.  11:37 Neurons in our brains respond to red and infrared.  13:57 There is a wavelength and intensity sweet spot where low level laser is effective and not harmful. Wavelengths need to be in the action spectrum.  16:18 Dr. Lim has developed a device that selectively points at strategic areas of the brain.  17:26 The default mode network is the template network for your brain. When you are not performing a task, this network kicks in.  18:36 Most people with Alzheimer’s have lesions in the areas of the brain where the active nodes/junctions for the default mode network reside.  19:49 Lab studies show that neurons that are damaged by oxidative stress, regrow their axons, dendrites and neurites with this therapy.  20:39 Red light and infrared light elevates the power of higher frequency brainwaves.  21:41 Attention deficit disorder correlates with too much power in the slower brainwave.  23:20 Gamma is characterized by heightened awareness, high oscillations and faster processing.  24:42 The Alpha state is the meditative state for most of us.  26:00 Photobiomodulation modalities can be used effectively to help with competitive performance and recovery.  27:36 Alpha is probably better with golfers and shooters who need to be in a calm state.  28:36 Alpha is usually recommended for head trauma therapy.  30:56 EEG is a diagnostic measurement of your brain electrical signals.  34:00 Directing gamma to the brain elevates gamma, beta and alpha and downregulates lower oscillation states.  37:13 Gamma pulsing at 40 Hz activates microglia in the brain, whose function is to remove unwanted byproducts in the brain.  39:45 Alpha at positive 10 Hz will get you into a more relaxed state and could be helpful with sleep. Photobiomodulation at 10 Hz may help with stress. 40:53 Photobiomodulation, via Dr. Lim’s devices, is being studied in conjunction with traumatic brain injury, cognitive deficits, Parkinson’s, ADHD and dementia.  45:00 The nose is an easy way to reach the circulatory system and the brain..  52:26 Red light and infrared light therapy can sometimes be helpful with epilepsy, which can be caused by a variety of things that happen in the brain.  54:43 Photobiomodulation is safe at the power used in Dr. Lim’s devices.  58:32 Dr. Lim’s devices are designed for adults. Nasal devices are for ages 5 and up. Kids don’t like it, so parents put them on while the child sleeps.'
