Polychromatic Light Therapy
InLight Medical Systems™ is a photo-modulated (pulsed, light emitting diodes) device also known as low-level light therapy (LLLT). The infrared and visible red LEDs are the heart of the InLight Medical Systems™, providing gentle but powerful non-coherent light. In Light Medical Systems™ uses a carefully timed sequence of settings, known as pulses, to create an environment in which change may occur more rapidly.
Polychromatic Light Therapy, is a unique therapy that harnesses the healing powers of infrared light. LED light energy application also facilitates the release of Nitric Oxide, a natural response, supporting the body with improved circulation. By increasing the production of nitric oxide, infrared, red and blue LED light therapy increases circulation, speeds healing and relieves pain. Other benefits may include improved delivery of nutrients to cells, improved immunity and neurotransmission.
Why Light Therapy?
LED light therapy is non-abrasive, non-invasive, painless, and restorative. It is safe in the clinic or at home for all ages and skin types.
The premise of LED light therapy, as in all modalities in the Natural Healing and Energy Medicine Field, is to provide information/encouragement to the body to stimulate the body’s natural intelligence.
Light therapy has been established as a useful tool to:
1. Increase Blood Circulation
Increase vascularity (circulation) by increasing the formation of new capillaries, which are additional blood vessels that replace damaged ones. New capillaries speed up the healing process by carrying more oxygen as well as more nutrients needed for healing, as well as carrying more waste products away.
2. Stimulate Collagen Production
Collagen is the most common protein found in the body. Collagen is the essential protein used to repair damaged tissue and to replace old tissue. It is the substance that holds cells together and has a high degree of elasticity. By increasing collagen production less scar tissue is formed at the damaged site.
3. Stimulate the Release of ATP
ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) is the major carrier of energy to all cells. Increases in ATP allow cells to accept nutrients faster and get rid of waste products faster by increasing the energy level in the cell. Food turns into ATP before the cells utilize it. ATP provides the chemical energy that drives the chemical reactions of the cell.
4. Increase Lymphatic System Activity
Increase lymphatic system activity: Edema, which is the swelling or natural splinting process of the body, has two basic components. The first is a liquid part, which can be evacuated by the blood system, and the second is comprised of the proteins that have to be evacuated by the lymphatic system. Research has shown that the lymph vessel diameter and the flow of the lymph system can be doubled with the use of light therapy. The venous diameter and the arterial diameters can also be increased. This means that both parts of edema (liquid and protein) can be evacuated at a much faster rate to relieve swelling.
5. Reduce Excitability of Nervous Tissue
The photons of light energy enter the body as negative ions. This calls upon the body to send positive ions, like calcium among others, to the area being treated. These ions assist in firing the nerves, thereby relieving pain.
6. Stimulate Fibroblastic Activity
Fibroblasts are present in connective tissue and are capable of forming collagen fibers. When fibroblasts are stimulated, they aid in the repair process.
7. Increase Phagocytosis
The process of scavenging or ingesting dead or degenerated cells by phagocyte cells for the purpose of clean up. This is an important part of the infection fighting process. Destruction of the infection and cleanup must occur before the healing process can take place.
8. Induce Thermal-Like Effect in Tissue
9. Stimulate Tissue Granulation
Part of the healing process of wounds, ulcers or inflamed tissues.
10. Stimulate Connective Tissue Projections
Part of the healing process of wounds, ulcers or inflamed tissues.
11. Stimulate Acetylcholine Release
Acetylcholine causes cardiac inhibition, vasodilation, gastrointestinal peristalsis and other parasympathetic effects.

Brilliant Light Therapy
NASA studies demonstrate cells exposed to LED light therapy exhibit a 150% increase in cellular metabolism suggesting enhanced cellular repair and vitality. Medical researchers across the globe are currently investigating a wide array of physiologic benefits produced by LED light therapy.
The world-renowned healer and Naturopath, Hanna Kroeger said:
The human body is the most brilliant computer that was ever designed. Given the proper encouragement, the right information, it can heal itself. In the future, all healing will come from COLOR, SOUND, and LIGHT.
