Re: Ultraviolet light therapy

Hi Gene,

Wound healing and neuropathy:

<Monochromatic infrared light emitted at a wavelength of 890 NM has

been shown effective through limited clinical studies, to help

restore sensation and reduce pain in patients with Neuropathy, and

to improve circulation, thus increasing the healing rate, of non-

healing ulcers. It is thought that the infrared light helps to

release Nitric Oxide into the bloodstream, which aids in increasing

local circulation and improving blood flow. People with Diabetes,

have poor circulation due to their naturally low levels of Nitric

Oxide, and sedentary habits.>
