The Vielight blog has articles about the brain and systemic photobiomodulation (PBM). From biohacking to Brain wellness and mitochondrial efficiency, the blog articles discuss many subjects related to PBM.

The field of photbiomodulation, or light therapy, exists for over 55 years. In the last decade numerous advances in PBM research brought more attention to this exciting field. Thus, the Vielight blog has numerous articles, including those covering the latest research and science of PBM.

Moreover, the blog has photobiomodulation articles covering general science and principles of PBM, as well as research into more specific areas of PBM. For example, some articles cover transcranial photobiomodulation (tPBM), intranasal photobiomodulation (iPBM), mental acuity and other relevant subjects.

Whether you are new to PBM and never really herd of it before, or an avid supporter and practitioner of PBM, you will find something useful. There is plenty to read in this blog. There is something of interest here to everyone.

Importantly, the Vielight blog is always growing. This means that you may want to come back every ones in a while and browse through articles for the newest and the freshest.

Can Light Penetrate the Skull?

Can light penetrate the human skull and reach the brain? This question often arises among both skeptics and scientists. The answer is yes but with caveats; this requires an appropriate wavelength (nm) and sufficient irradiance (mW/cm²) In this demonstration with a real human skull, the Vielight Neuro, emitting 810 nm near-infrared light at an [...]

TBI Recovery and Photobiomodulation Research Paper Published | Dr. Lew Lim

This blog article summarizes a published study by Vielight's founder, Dr. Lew Lim, on how PBM could potentially help with TBI. Link to the full study. Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is a big problem worldwide, but solutions are still unavailable. This is because TBI is complicated and involve different factors going wrong in the [...]

Safeguarding Your Brain’s Mitochondria: A Defense Against Alzheimer’s

Middle school biology imparts a well-remembered fact: mitochondria are the cellular powerhouses responsible for energy production. But recent scientific findings suggest that mitochondria may also hold the key to preserving our memories and combating Alzheimer's disease. This article explores the emerging role of mitochondria in Alzheimer's disease, highlighting scientific research and offering insights into [...]

Enhancing the Default Mode Network (DMN)

Many neuroscience publications indicate that the brain is modular and composed of different networks The key to successful brain stimulation (and brain photobiomodulation) is to focus on networks that hold the most importance to your objective. The Default Mode Network (DMN) is a collection of brain regions that are active when an individual is [...]

What are the differences between the Vielight Neuro Alpha and Neuro Gamma devices?

The question, “When should I use an alpha frequency and when should I use a gamma frequency?” is not new. In the context of brain photobiomodulation and Vielight products, this question refers to the Vielight Neuro Alpha and Neuro Gamma devices. More specifically, answering this question requires an understanding of the differences between these [...]

Brain Photobiomodulation Pathways, Their Benefits and Opportunities 

Numerous studies conducted over the last two decades have shown the beneficial effects of photobiomodulation (PBM) on the body. Furthermore, a lot of research has been done over the last decade to better understand PBM’s effects on the brain. Today, there is a sufficient body of research-based evidence to conclude that PBM has beneficial [...]

Types of Brain Stimulation Technology

The enhancement of human cognitive processes has long been a focus of scientific discovery. Progress in technology and research, has lead to non-invasive brain stimulation therapies playing increasingly important roles in improving neuroplasticity, brain performance, and neuromodulation. What is non-invasive brain stimulation? Non-invasive brain stimulation is defined as the delivery of energy through the [...]

Vielight Bi-Annual Update

Vielight Neuro Gamma Shines in a Brain Injury Study The sports medicine community recognizes that concussions from repetitive blows to the head are major public health concerns. To address this issue, Vielight is dedicating resources to seek for a solution using non-invasive transcranial photobiomodulation (tPBM) modality. We try to be a part of the [...]

Elderly Cognitive Decline and Brain Photobiomodulation

A growing problem facing the elderly – age-related cognitive decline Several factors of brain aging and age-related cognitive decline Brain photobiomodulation (PBM) and mitochondrial function Brain PBM and metabolic effects Brain PBM and anti-inflammatory effects Brain PBM leads to a reduction in neuronal excitotoxicity Brain PBM increases cerebral vascularity and oxygenation Published research – [...]

Brain Waves and Their Usefulness

Introduction At Vielight, we work tirelessly to offer products that are helpful to improve brain functions. A large part of this relates to the use of photobiomodulation (PBM) to modulate brain waveforms. Here we share why this understanding is useful, starting with the neurofeedback practitioners’ perspective. Neurofeedback training and the brain  Every brain is [...]
