Dr. Wilkerson walks us through the science of photobiomodulation. PBM can decrease inflammation, increase blood flow to treated areas, and improves cellular function by promoting energy production.
 
 • Photobiomodulation is the umbrella term for using light to change cellular function
 • Lasers work faster for pain relief, while LEDs are safer for home use
 • Red light therapy has been used in veterinary medicine since the 1970s
 • Transcranial photobiomodulation devices like VieLight use different pulse frequencies to target specific brain states
 • The gamma setting (40Hz) improves cognitive function and focus
 • The alpha setting (10Hz) promotes relaxation and healing
 • Device quality and specifications matter – therapeutic benefits depend on proper wavelength, power, and design
 • Different devices work better for different conditions
