Transcranial Photobiomodulation Archives - Page 3 of 5

Transcranial photobiomodulation (tPBM) is unique form of phtobiomodulation. It is a noninvasive neuromodulation modality for neuroenhancement and brain wellness. Research data shows that tPBM has a potential to improve brain function. It’s application is under studies for a wide range of neurological and psychiatric disorders. The studies include tPBM applications for dementia, including Alzheimer’s Disease, traumatic brain injury (TBI), Post-traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and more.

Furthermore, tPBM is also under investigation for performance improving qualities for athletes, the military and general public.

Near infrared light (NIR) therapy is the most common form of tPBM. This is so, because studies show that NIR light can penetrate deep enough into the brain to effect its modulation.

Thus, studies show that NIR therapy can improve cognitive acuity by modulating mitochondrial and cellular functions in the brain.

This week, the Wall Street Journal featured Vielight as a leader in this emerging field, with a well-researched story that touched on some applications for photobiomodulation among elite athletes [...]

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 [...]

Brain Photobiomodulation: A Potential Drug-Free Option for Alzheimer’s Therapy

Brain Photobiomodulation: A Drug-Free Alternative for Treating Alzheimer's Disease Alzheimer's disease, a progressive neurodegenerative disorder, poses one of the greatest challenges to modern medicine. With its devastating impact on cognitive function and quality of life, finding effective treatments has become an urgent priority. As traditional pharmacological therapies struggle to provide a definitive cure, alternative [...]

40Hz Gamma Neuromodulation in Alzheimer’s Research | Brain Photobiomodulation and Visual Cortex Stimulation

The Ongoing Search for Effective and Accessible Treatments for Alzheimer’s Disease Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common type of dementia in elderly individuals worldwide (Wilson et al., 2012). The disease is characterized by neurodegeneration, tissue changes in the brain, (including amyloid-containing plaques and tangles of hyperphosphorylated tau protein), severe cognitive decline and in [...]

Parkinson’s Disease Clinical Trial Results | Vielight Brain Photobiomodulation Technology

This study was a historical first in showing the potential efficacy of photobiomodulation for Parkinson's symptoms in humans. The Vielight Neuro Gamma was utilized for transcranial-intranasal brain photobiomodulation and an Irradia MID 2.5 laser device for neck and abdominal photobiomodulation throughout this study. Read the full study here: Link Watch the explainer video below. [...]

Dementia and Brain Photobiomodulation

In 2015, our dementia pilot trial made history by being the first to show efficacy of brain photobiomodulation (PBM) for dementia in humans with a home-use device, the Vielight Neuro Gamma.[1] In 2019, Dr. Linda Chao, a professor in the Departments of Radiology, Biomedical Imaging and Psychiatry at the University of California, verified our [...]

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 [...]

Shedding Light on Photobiomodulation in Neuropsychiatric Disorders

Over the last decade, there has been an increasingly positive shift in how transcranial photobiomodulation (tPBM) is viewed by mainstream medical science. If you’d like an in-depth overview of the potential applications of transcranial brain photobiomodulation in the field of psychiatry, this presentation by Dr. Corinne Fischer is for you: https://youtu.be/_WrocJ-rhfc Dr. Fischer is [...]

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 [...]

Combining Neurofeedback with Photobiomodulation

What can be achieved by combining neurofeedback with photobiomodulation? A creative and curious mind can be a beginning of something new, something important, even something big. This is as true in the field of arts as it is in the field of sciences. This article offers one more testament to these observations. Penijean Gracefire [...]
