Light is energy, and energy sustains life \u2013 it cannot be destroyed, but it can be transformed into other forms.<\/p>\n<p>Photizo Light Therapy harnesses the healing power of red and infrared light proven to be effective in accelerating natural healing of the body, reducing swelling and inflammation, stimulating the immune system and relieving pain. Cells that are injured can actually be rejuvenated by light.<\/p>\n<p>What can I use red and infrared light therapy for?<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/old.photizo.net\/za\/photizo-skincare\/\">Wound healing<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/old.photizo.net\/za\/photizo-pain-relief\/\">Pain<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/old.photizo.net\/za\/photizo-skincare\/\">Skincare<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/old.photizo.net\/za\/photizo-blush\/\">Anti-aging<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/old.photizo.net\/za\/photizo-sport\/\">Sports injuries<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/old.photizo.net\/za\/photizo-vetcare\/\">Animal wounds and pain<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Light therapy has broad treatment applications. Using these devices, wounds and other injuries can heal faster and chronic conditions can be managed without the overuse of pain and anti-inflammatory medications within a few treatments.<\/p>\n<p>People with back problems, nerve damage, muscular diseases, tennis elbow, burns and other ailments have all shown marked signs of improvement using infrared light therapy.<\/p>\n<p>The technology can also offset the long-term costs of surgery, pain medicines and physical therapy visits. We will be seeing infrared light used for all kinds of healing and pain control in the future. There will always be a place for medication and other modalities such as ultrasound and electrical stimulation, but now doctors will also start using light for treatment.<\/p>\n<p>The FDA has approved light therapy for the treatment of head and neck pain, as well as pain associated with CTS (Carpal Tunnel Syndrome).<br \/>\nAlthough light (Photon) therapy has been documented in medical literature as early as 1500BC, it was the Danish physician Nils Finsen, who is believed to be the father of phototherapy that received a Nobel Prize for his work in 1903. Since then, numerous authors have advocated treatment by phototherapy for many different diseases ranging from acne, vitilago, jaundice in babies, wound healing and rheumatoid arthritis to name only a few.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]In a recent episode, Carte Blanche aired a documentary about photobiomodulation, focusing mainly on the treatment of brain tissue.
