This
book examines light and its profound effect on biology and human physiology.
Light as a treatment is a relatively new modality, although it was discovered
long ago. Treatment with light is now proven to be successful at speeding
up wound and injury healing dramatically. It also has shown much promise
for eradicating cancer and treating many other aliments and diseases. Specific
frequencies of light are able to cleanse the blood of viruses, bacteria
and infectious agents. Light just might very well be the future of medicine.
An
in-depth look at light's uses in medicine with government agencies, scientists,
doctors, professors and engineers from leading medical facilities and institutions.
The use of light in medicine might sound like a new idea but its origin
is thousands of years old. In 1903 Neils Finsen won a Nobel prize for his
inventions with light in medicine. It took another 100 years for his innovations
to take hold. John Ott experiments with light got him an honorary doctorate.
His genius innovated the full spectrum light bulb for Phillips, among many
other things. Ott's research revealed potential hazards of exposure to artificial
light and the how the sun's UVA rays are very important to maintain good
health, contrary to popular belief.
