Horizon Light Therapy
Horizon Light Therapy can be used as an additional, adjuct treatment protocol to accompany decompression therapy and to treat many other conditions as well.
The Horizon Infrared and Red Light Therapy unit delivers a Powerful 800mW of Infrared(880nm) and Red(660nm) through a 2" diameter probe. The Horizon Probe can be purchased as a plug-in to the HF54 for $1499 or as a Standalone for $1795. The Standalone unit can be wall or tabletop mounted.
Powerful, Effective, Safe
- 800mW Dosage - Every 90 Seconds = 4 Joule/cm2.
- Typical Treatment Sessions Are Between 30 and 180 Seconds, 2 - 4 Times a Week
- Light Therapy can safely be applied directly over the spinal cord, joint replacements, internal metal, and joint capsules in arthritic conditions. Muscle stimulation and ultrasound are contraindicated in these areas.
- NASA exclusively uses light-emitting diodes (LEDs). “LEDs stimulate the basic energy processes in the mitochondria (energy compartments) of each cell. DNA synthesis in fibroblasts and muscle cells has been quintupled using LED light alone.” 2 “Evidence indicates that cells absorb photons and transform their energy into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the form of energy that cells utilize. The resulting ATP is then used to power metabolic processes; synthesize DNA, RNA, proteins, enzymes, and other products needed to repair or regenerate cell components; foster mitosis or cell proliferation; and restore homeostasis.”3
LED vs. Laser (LLLT)
“The light source does not have to be a laser in order to have a therapeutic effect. It just has to be light of the right wavelength."3
Depth of Penetration
Measured Spectroscopically, light photons at wavelengths between 630-800 nm travel 23 cm through the surface tissue and muscle.1
