Your Brain on Light: Red Light Therapy for Concussion | E14

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 conditionsContact Caroline Wilkerson: LinkedIn Profile  Want to learn more about photobiomodulation?
