Vielight Therapy for Neurodegenerative Diseases
The Vielight Photobiomodulation Therapy is a form of light therapy used for patients with Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Mild Cognitive Impairment, Schizophrenia, Internal Pain, and many more neurodegenerative disorders.
Photobiomodulation (PBM) might be an effective treatment for Parkinson’s disease (PD) in human patients, according to Photobiomodulation for Parkinson’s Disease in Animal Models: A Systematic Review article. By using red or near-infrared light delivered from a laser or an LED at relatively low power densities onto the head, PBM stimulates the brain and makes this process a preventive measure in neuron degeneration, as also stated in the article.
What is Photobiomodulation?
Photobiomodulation therapy is a form of light therapy that utilizes non-ionizing light sources, making a way for the body to repair itself, reduce the pain, reduce inflammation, and heal. Light therapy is being used for Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, concussion, chronic traumatic encephalopathy, brain injuries, stroke, depression, movement disorders, multiple sclerosis, as well as autoimmune conditions according to Dr. Jason Pang, a dentist who has been using a therapeutic laser in his dental practice for over 12 years, and is also a member of the Australian Medical Photobiomodulation Association and runs the Australian and New Zealand Study Club of the Academy of Laser Dentistry.

Reducing pain, immunomodulation, and progressive wound healing and tissue regeneration are also few therapeutic beneficial outcomes of this therapy.
How does Vielight work?
Vielight neurotechnology has the most published research in the field of safe, non-invasive brain stimulation technology via PBM, as stated on its website.
Vielight Intranasal Photobiomodulation Therapy introduces the therapeutic effect of light into the body and the brain channel through a nasal channel. This process triggers the body to restore its natural balance or homeostasis. The trigger calls upon the body’s ability to heal itself.
Two types of Vielight treatment
We offer two kinds of Vielight therapy at Healthspan; Vielight 655 and Vielight 810 Infrared. Now, what is the difference between the two?
Vielight 655 is an intranasal PBM that delivers light energy into the brain through the blood and inner systems to enhance blood circulation. The procedure only takes 25 minutes.
Benefits:
- Cognitive improvements
- Mood benefits
- Headaches and migraines
- Improved immune system functioning
- Flu symptoms
- Sinusitis & hay fever
- Better sleep
- Reduce fatigue
- Increase energy
- Control blood pressure
Vielight 810 Infrared is engineered for gentle brain stimulation. This is an intranasal PBM that delivers light energy into the brain and inner systems to enhance insight, cognition, and performance. Also known as light therapy to stimulate neuronal cells. This procedure also takes 25 minutes.
Benefits:
1. Improve mental clarity
2. Enhance immune system
3. Improve energy
4. Stimulate inner systems, such as improving circulation
5. Complements other existing wellness routines Sources: Surfers Health, US National Library of Medicine
