facial massager with light therapy: Microcurrent: Advanced Wound Healing John Hache, 2018-09 The care and treatment of wounds has long been attributed to the western medical system, which has developed within itself a method for treating wounds that can in effect extend the duration of the wound, and cause excruciating pain in the process. Wounds or pain can become such a detriment on people's lives that they have all but given up. Dr. John Hache has spent years of his life helping patients in these situations find relief from this pain. With Microcurrent technology we have the power to restore that life to them.This illustrated book aims to examine the current epidemic in the prescription of harmful medications for the management of acute and chronic pain as well as the reasons behind delayed wound healing. We will consider why wounds take so long to heal, and why a lot of them do not heal at all; furthermore, we will show you a non-invasive way to accelerate their repair. The prevalence of prescription medications and surgical intervention within the medical field has prevented, and still prevents, medical professionals from seeing the advantages that alternative methods can produce. Within this book we will go over individual cases, a full case study with over 100 participants, and reveal specific step-by-step protocols for a variety of types of wounds, both basic, and severe that you can do with your microcurrent technology.These studies presented within reveal remarkable evidence that correct use of microcurrent technology, could-right now-replace a portion of the current medical practices in the treatment of wound healing. Dr. John Hache earned a PhD in Integrative Medicine from Quantum University. His thesis focused on research and practice in the healing of wounds using microcurrent technology. |
facial massager with light therapy: The Ultimate Guide to Red Light Therapy Ari Whitten, 2018-07-12 If there were a pill that was scientifically proven to help you look 10 years younger, lose fat, improve hormonal health, fight pain and inflammation, increase strength/endurance, heal faster, improve your brain health and increase your energy levels, it would be a billion-dollar blockbuster drug. Hundreds of millions of people would be told to start taking it by their doctors every day. And doctors all over the world would call it a miracle drug. Here's the crazy part: That drug exists. But it's not a pill. It's red light therapy! Did you know that light has the power to heal your body and optimize your health? Of course, everyone knows about the importance of vitamin D from sunlight (from UV light). But few are aware that there is another type of light that may be just as vital to our health - red and near-infrared light. Think it's all just hype? Think again! Believe it or not, there are now over 3,000 peer-reviewed scientific studies showing incredible health and anti-aging benefits of red and near-infrared light therapy. But it gets even better... While you used to have to spend $100 or more to get treatments done in a medical or anti-aging clinic (where this technology has been used for decades), new breakthroughs have allowed us to harness these benefits in the comfort of our own home, without the need to spend thousands on an expensive laser device or $100 per treatment at a health/anti-aging clinic. We can now do red light therapy at home, as much as we want, at a tiny fraction of the cost. In this book, Ari Whitten - bestselling author, health expert and founder of The Energy Blueprint - cuts through all the confusion, myths and pseudoscience around this complex topic, and takes you on a deep dive into the science of how to use red/near-infrared light therapy to improve your health, your body and your life in dozens of ways. Inside this book, you'll learn how to use red/near-infrared light therapy to: - Fight skin aging, wrinkles, and cellulite and look 10 years younger - Lose fat (nearly twice as with diet and exercise alone) - Rid your body of chronic inflammation - Fight the oxidative damage that drives aging - Increase strength, endurance, and muscle mass - Decrease pain - Combat hair loss - Build resilience to stress at the cellular level - Speed up wound/injury healing - Combat some autoimmune conditions and improve hormonal health - Optimize your brain function and mood - Overcome fatigue and improve energy levels You'll also get critical information to get the best results, including: - Specific dosing guidelines for every type of treatment (and how to avoid common mistakes) - The 5 bioactive types of light that affect human cell function and human health - Which health issues respond best to red/near-infrared light therapy - The big mistakes people make when giving themselves red light treatments (and exactly how to do treatments to get the best results) - The best light devices to get (and why most devices on the market are a waste of money) - Exact protocols for how to use red/near-infrared light therapy for everything from fat loss, to brain optimization, to skin anti-aging Optimal light exposure habits are as essential to good health as good nutrition habits. But the big problem is that, just as many people eat diets of processed junk food and fast food, most people are eating light diets of junk light and end up with chronic mal-illumination. This book will show you how to fix that. Red and near-infrared light therapy is one of the biggest health breakthroughs in the last half century. If you're serious about your health and improving your body, it's time to start using this powerful tool in your life.

facial massager with light therapy: Light Therapeutics John Harvey Kellogg, 2024-05-13 2024 Hardcover Reprint of the 1910 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition and not reproduced with Optical Recognition software. The scientific use of light to heal the body in modern times was predominantly an invention of nineteenth-century health reformers; and while the religion of the ancient Egyptians was far from most of the minds of practitioners of light therapy, they were nevertheless participating in an ancient practice of looking to the sun for health. In his 1910 work, Light Therapeutics, Kellogg summed up the short history of light therapy (also called phototherapy or heliotherapy) yet also recognized its ancient roots: Heliotherapy, or the use of sunlight as a curative means, is one of the oldest of natural healing agents....It is only within the last twenty years, however, that the physiological and therapeutic effects of light derived from natural and artificial sources have been made the subject of careful scientific study. Within this period numerous investigators have devoted themselves to the study of this subject, and the extended researches [sic] that have been made have resulted in the development of a new class of therapeutic methods, principles and measures which constitute the science of phototherapy. Quoted from: https: //link.springer.com/article/10.1057/s42738-022-00092-7 This book describes in detail Kellogg's philosophy and practice of curing ailments with the use of light. Profusely illustrated. |

facial massager with light therapy: Itch E. Carstens, Tasuku Akiyama, 2014-02-25 Advances in itch research have elucidated differences between itch and pain but have also blurred the distinction between them. There is a long debate about how somatic sensations including touch, pain, itch, and temperature sensitivity are encoded by the nervous system. Research suggests that each sensory modality is processed along a fixed, direct-line communication system from the skin to the brain.
