HEALING WITH SINGLE FREQUENCY LIGHT by: Olszewski, David, E.E., I.E.

EARLY EXPERIMENTS In 1965, the Russians and Czechs were trying to standardize
colour therapy, which is the use of colours to treat the body. When they used a
single colour on a number of people, they got different reactions because colour
affects emotions and produces different effects. The Russians wanted to have a
standard treatment, so they theorized that if they isolated one frequency of
blue, or red, they could duplicate colour therapy on a regulated basis. They
started separating different frequencies with lasers, and they discovered a lot
more than they expected to find. They discovered that a single frequency light
in a laser can stimulate DNA in damaged cell tissue. They used a low power laser
under 50-milliwatts because higher lasers can cut tissue.

PULSED VS.CONTINUOUS LASER They discovered that if they used a pulsed laser
light, the tissue healed rapidly. On the other hand, if they gave a continuous
beam, it sedated the cell and killed the pain. When a single frequency pulsed
light hit the cell, it actually stimulated the cell to start producing more
protein than it normally does, and as a result, the cell would heal. Even when
they took the light away, the cell continued its healing. The continuous beam
had a reverse effect. It actually caused the cell membrane to relax; it killed
pain, reduced inflammation and made muscle tissue relax.

INCREASED HEALING IN THE 660 nm WAVELENGTH It didn't matter what the frequency
was. It could be infrared, red, blue, or green, as long as it was single
although, as you move toward the red end of the spectrum, the rate of cellular
regeneration increased. For instance, a single frequency in the green range
might affect the kidney 40 times better than a normal base-line study, whereas a
red would be about 4,000 times faster. So over the years they migrated to
infrared, red and eventually the 660 nanometer wavelength because it was the
fastest way to regenerate tissue. So if you have an injury you would normally
recover from in ten days, you can actually recover that tissue in two days by
treating it with light.

WAVELENGTH OF CELL TISSUE About ten years later at the University of Chicago,
researchers discovered that the average wavelength of cell tissue in the human
body ranged between 600 nanometers and 720 nm;

660 is the mid-point. So in essence, the reason a 660 nm works better than any
other single frequency is because it is closer to the resonant frequency of cell
tissue. The other reason is that 660 nm absorbs better in hemoglobin.

LASER LIGHT VS LIGHT EMITTING DIODES (LED) When this therapy reached the U.S.
and Canada, both lasers and light-emitting diodes at 660 nanometers were being
used. The LED diffuses; the single frequency laser does not. With this
diffusion, the cell can actually be in control of the treatment and shut off the
molecules when it was done. But with the laser, the cells are no longer in
control; the doctor or the practitioner applying the laser is in control. If he
does it too long or with too much strength, you would not only heal the tissue,
but you would start a deterioration again. So basically, the use of
light-emitting diodes eliminated the draw back of lasers, and light could be
applied into such sensitive areas as the eyes and around the face. LEDs allowed
this whole area to blossom into a much larger usage by average people in their
homes. Tiina Karu, Ph.D. of the Laser Technology Center in Russia, and
affiliated with the University of California at Berkely, probably the top
researcher in the world on the use of lasers and light emitting diodes published
a study in Health and Physics Digest called "Photobiological Effects of Lasers"
which discusses photobiological stimulation without laser light. The article
explains that you can do laser treatment without using laser light, by using
light emitting diodes which are much safer. Since the cells are basically in
control of the process, there is no way to overuse light.

THE MERIDIAN SYSTEM Acupuncturists discovered that single frequency light could
activate acupressure points. Pulse light could stimulate it; continuous light
could sedate the acupuncture points. But they also discovered that light applied
to a meridian end-point can actually be traced flowing through the meridian to
the organ acupuncture points. The meridian system is a useful pathway for
getting light deeper into the body, so if you are treating things like asthma in
the lungs, there is an alternate method of getting light into the lungs.

DEPTH OF LIGHT PENETRATION As we developed more types of lights with different
geometrical shapes, we were able to actually get light deeper into the body
without going through the meridians. Initially, single frequency light
penetrated approximately an inch and a half, but today, larger units can
penetrate up to eight inches. It will go through the skull. We use it on
strokes, concussions and internal problems in the brain. Excellent studies have
been done using light for pain relief, degenerative osteoarthritis, carpal
tunnel tendonitis, skin ailments, acne, psoriasis, healing of the sinus cells,
throat and ear problems, whiplash and lower back problems.

PENETRATING THROUGH THE BLOOD STREAM You can even get light into the blood
stream. One of the best ways is through your belly button, because the aorta
artery is behind the belly button. So if you insert the light there for 20
minutes, every drop of blood in the body will pass in front of the light,
increasing the activity of your white cells, red cells, B-cells and T-cells, so
you can boost your whole immune system.

ACUTE VS CHRONIC CONDITIONS If you use lasers or light-emitting diodes, it will
actually speed up healing by a factor of five. If you have chronic conditions
like osteoarthritis or whiplash from 15 years ago, conditions that are not
responding or are deteriorating, the use of laser and LED light has actually
stimulated regeneration. I believe light is going to play the biggest part in
chronic conditions for people who have already explored a lot of other
modalities and have found no solution.

BRAIN WAVE STUDIES We were studying the diagnosis of illnesses like leukemia,
etc through brainwave patterns. We were surprised to find that when we treat the
person with light, or with heat, that when the body starts healing, it shifts
into what is called a healing profile where beta waves disappear, and alpha,
theta and delta appear like you wouldn't even find in a yogi.

"I oppose sunglasses. Sunglasses are the main reason why the UV light destroys
the eyes. This occurs because your pupils expand when you wear sunglasses, and
the exposure can destroy your eyes even quicker". - Meier Schneider
