Summary

Do you have Epilepsy? Would you like to participate in a study using PhotoBioModulation (PBM)? PBM is being researched for potential benefits in resolving many stress-related brain disorders. It is a non-invasive technique that delivers light energy to cells and tissues that can promote brain stabilization and self-regulation, cell repair, reduce oxidative stress, and enhance cellular function. We ask you to participate for about 3-4 months and come to our facility for 30 minute sessions 3x a week for 15 weeks. You will receive extensive metabolic testing and an Õura ring for your participation.

OTHER

Photobiomodulation

Transcranial photobiomodulation emits low light (infrared) through the scalp and energizes mitochondria, which in turn produce more energy. It is assumed that many brain-related disorders are afflicted with this phenomenon.
