Photobiomodulation - Scam or Legit?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 июл 2024
- Join Dr. Van Dyken as she discusses photobiomodulation, also known as infrared light therapy, red light therapy, low level light therapy or LLLT. What on earth is it, and is there some science behind it, or is it all a scam? It seems that photobiomodulation is gaining in popularity, and there are so many claims that it can help with almost every condition under the sun. Is there any truth to this?

Very helpful and thank you for taking the time to make this video!!
This is exciting, amazing and wonderful news! Thank you, Dr. Ven Dyken!
Thanks, great video! So I bought a Beurer IL50 300W lamp (please keep in mind that I'm neither a Dr. nor a Beurer salesperson - just sharing my general experience) to use at home to proactively help with mild neuropathy and inflammation reduction and for nitric oxide creation, like you mentioned. It has really helped, and it had the unexpected benefit of speeding up growth in my calf muscles. My experience matches what you have shared from the research.
After how many days you feel the benefit?
@@denny8111 After a workout, I feel like the recovery help is pretty much immediate. For muscle growth, I was using twice per week for roughly 3 months when I noticed the change.
Dr. Van Dyken, so we are presented with preliminary data, but be that as it may, you have shared superb information!
Superbly delivered... by charming doctor, adorable 🕉☯️⚕
Thank you for this excellent overview! Clear signals of effectiveness for a safe, practical and reasonably affordable treatment, so good potential for many ailments and injuries.
Can this type of treatment and the equipment necessary to administer it be done by interested individuals? Thank you for your very interesting and thoughtful presentations. Cheers, Will
Such a nice video. I have a question:
Could we use the sun as an photobiomodulation light source?
I mean infrared light reaches us from the sun and since low doses are adequate ultraviolet radiation shouldn't be a problem right?
Probably YES, but they wouldnt make any Money Off of You!
Great information! Could you elaborate on this theme by talking about the units people can buy for their homes. Can these less powerful devices as opposed to what is used in clinics, be as effective for the various uses you describe? How can a person make an informed decision on what type of unit is most efficacious? Some are very expensive, others less so, how does price point effect the effectiveness? If you can share any additional info on these questions, it would be most helpful.
She's not Consumers Reports. There are many RUclips channels that do that for these units.
Good and effective information on Photobiomodulation.
Are these effects applicable with LED Infrared Saunas ?
Thank you.
Heliotherapy has existed for ages. Even before clothes came.And then pockets.And people want to line their pockets selling devices that may work or not as promises
Any research on infrared with CKD?
I am wondering if anyone might be able to put me in contact with somebody who is interested in exploring the possibility that LED Red Light Therapy might have a positive influence on the condition called lipedema and lipo-lymphedema?
Any research on effects on atherosclerosis?
Thanks!
Fabulous information. So where can I get a personal unit??😊

@@lacharmer441 thank you very much. 💕
@@lacharmer441 do you recommend it?
@@marionharris5952 yes, it’s working for me. I pushing 60 in a couple of years, am healthy and feel this makes my mind stronger. I do it every couple of days.

You did a very good job of diluting the principal message which is that there is exactly zero hard evidence or any serious studies done by the highest scientific research authorities that would prove that such treatments deliver any of the results you've purported here. Towards the end you mention that none of the studies are conclusive or consistent. You should have mentioned that at the beginning. I wouldn't spend a dime on this technology in this state.
You are missing out then. It is a miracle! Get yourself the Lightstim and use it on your face and see for yourself!
I don't agree and NIH has done studies on Red Light Therpy. This woman might not know it has been researched for years all over the world. I use it almost everyday.
I've never read any convincing evidence it works and unlike UV light (UVA and UVB but not UVC)Infra Red and Near IR doesn't seem to be used in phototherapy by the medical profession.UVA(PUVA) and UVB are fairly frequently used to treat eczema and psoriasis plus the early stage of a rare lymphoma called Mycosis Fungoides.
I have celiac disease that manifests itself on my skin (Dermatitis Herpetiformis) from a glutening and I can fully attest that photobiomodulation works. The machine at the clinic I go to maximizes its effectiveness as its full body immersion. It look like a tanning bed but isn’t. A work colleague goes for recovery from a severe concussion she had over a year ago. After plateauing in her recovery she started going 3 months ago and has started improving again.
A friend of mine has an autoimmune disorder too and his skin cracks open in sores. As soon as he feels a tingle under his skin, he shines red light on it and it keeps it at bay. It has changed his life. He now no longer takes strong meds or emollients.
What??? There are many papers on PubMed about the many uses of Red and NIR photobiomodulation.
Ms. Van Dyken,
Re: “The hypothesis behind this is that the infrared light prepares the cells to resist and/or repair further UV induced damage.”
Please consider:
This hypothesis *seems* like yet another specific instance of the more general case that putting the body into hormesis (the goldilocks zone of stress) activates the sirtuins to do their magic.

Another example of something the wealthy may have access to, but most of us will never see in our life time.
There are affordable options.
Not true. A very good tabletop unit can be had for about $250. I have one and use it every other day.
Not true, there are many inexpensive options. I go to a tannin 11:26 g salon for whole body red light. I pay $100 a month for unlimited treatments
The comic relief makes this video seem more like a joke. Thumbs down.
