New York, New York---Light therapy, a non-invasive therapeutic treatment option for a wide range of physical and mental health conditions, will be a featured topic at HEaL Conferences' (Health, Education, and Learning) upcoming event, which will take place on July 28-30 in Tampa, Florida. The conference will bring together leading healthcare professionals, researchers, and industry innovators from all over the world to present and discuss innovative treatment options and the latest advances in healthcare and EdTech.

The New Solutions Network (NSN) is a sponsor of HEaL Conference 2023 and is supporting the educational content and speaker line-up for the event. NSN's founder Dr. Natanya Wachtel said, "We are super-excited that delegates will have an opportunity to experience a LightMD therapy session at HEaL, learn more about the benefits from the experts, and be able to feel some of the magic that this unique, FDA-approved light therapy can bring."

Light therapy is scientifically referred to as Photobiomodulation (PBM). PBM uses hundreds of lasers or LEDS at specific wavelengths to stimulate cellular processes and promote healing by delivering energy into deep tissue and organs and penetrating through the skin. PBM stimulates the body’s natural ability to heal and is used and approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to reduce inflammation, reduce pain, increase circulation, and speed up the naturally occurring healing processes for almost any injury or illness.
The way this works, or mechanisms of action, are widely studied in peer-reviewed medical journals and in-practice settings. The photochemical process of the treatment causes a chain reaction in the cells and affects responses such as neurogenesis, angiogenesis, vasodilation, and phagocytosis. Light also plays an important role by restoring healthy conditions from a diseased state and maintaining health, a balance known as homeostasis. Supporting the immune system and nervous systems on a cellular level has both acute and systemic benefits.

Athletes and biohackers are some of the users who love the performance enhancement aspect of PBM: reducing blood viscosity, enhancing pre-aerobic breathing protocols, muscle warm-ups, and post-exercise warm-down and recovery protocols, creating accelerated injury repair, lactic acid removal, and enhanced tissue oxygenation. PBM modulates stem cell production and is beneficial to mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) - important for making and repairing skeletal tissues, such as cartilage, bone, and the fat found in bone marrow, and has natural anti-aging effects.

The benefits are not limited to just the torso and extremities, the brain also receives numerous benefits from PBM (known as transcranial PBM or PBM). Light therapy has also successfully been used to relieve anxiety and depression, stress, as well as boost meditation and stroke recovery, TBI, head trauma, tinnitus, vertigo, and various neurological conditions. Everyone can benefit from light therapy. Athletes and aging populations benefit from the enhancement of oxygenation in the brain as well as neural entrainment to gamma frequencies. This enhances their memory and sharpens focus, clearing brain fog.
Brooke McKeever, a keynote speaker on alternative treatments at the HEaL conference, runs UltraRed Light, a small health and wellness business in Newport Beach, CA, specializing in advanced PBM Therapy along with her husband, Jeff. Since it opened in 2018, UltraRed has helped over 800 clients use light to heal themselves from a variety of conditions. It is often they hear that their light has changed someone’s life and trajectory of illness or injury.

“When you offer a real solution to people who are struggling from debilitating chronic pain to get out of pain without drugs, gain mobility and strength, and have hope of good health again, it’s life-changing,” says Brooke.

LightMD’s PBM has also been used for balancing the gut microbiome, post-operative care, slowing degenerative dementia diseases down (and in some cases even reversed), rapid wound healing (especially good for slower-to-recover geriatrics), long covid symptom relief, non-pharmacological hormone balancing and fertility, immune system support, and maintaining healthy mind and body through neural entrainment and the central and peripheral nervous systems.

“We are thrilled to have PBM therapy be discussed at this year’s HEaL Conferences and to share our research and results. We are also adding to the growing number of published papers on the efficacy of PBM therapy for various health, wellness, and beauty applications,” adds Brooke.

Conferences take massive effort and energy to show up, learn, and engage and can be both physically and mentally taxing. To help address this, Brooke is leading a team to organize LightMD’s “Light Lounge” at the conference, where you are invited to try a session to recharge your cells and revitalize your body and mind. “You don’t want to miss the opportunity to feel it to believe it either for a quick energy boost, pain relief, or relaxation session,” adds Brooke. “Our technology paired with protocols designed from over 20 years of research and testing has the potential to not only support but to transform medicine and illuminate quantum healthcare. We are excited to share the latest advances in PBM and are happy to discuss why everyone needs this light.”

Light therapy’s benefits are especially broad. Hair growth, skin rejuvenation, and wound healing using red light therapy is becoming increasingly popular. Sports teams, chiropractors, gyms, and wellness centers are adding a form of light therapy to aid in circulation and recovery. There are major differences between consumer products and medical devices, and the HEaL conference is the perfect place to ask questions to the pros who have been using this technology. At the HEaL Conferences, there will also be opportunities to network with other healthcare professionals and industry leaders, share best practices, and explore new collaborations and partnerships.
