US Army Grant Supports Study on Green Light Therapy for Postsurgical Pain Relief
A Safe Alternative to Pain Relief without Drugs
No one wants to live with moderate to severe pain. Opioids are drugs that are used to reduce pain. However, these drugs are highly addictive and cause serious risks and devastating side effects. Opioid dependency has become a health crisis in the United States, with over 800,000 people dying from drug overdoses between 1999 and 2020. This has contributed to a decrease in life expectancy in the United States.
There is a safe, non-invasive, non-opioid, non-pharmacological solution that reduces pain without risk or side effects. Modern phototherapy (light therapy) has been successfully used for pain relief and healing for well over 100 years. Experts agree that light therapy aids in repairing cells, as well as healing muscle tissue, without the use of harmful pharmaceuticals. A recent study has determined that between 50 and 90% of people who have been treated with certain forms of light therapy have reported marked improvement.
Green light therapy uses green light wavelengths to penetrate the epidermis and reach into the dermis layer of the body to reduce pain. When exposed to green light-emitting diodes, inflammation and pain are lessened. Green light has been proven to accelerate the brain’s production of natural pain—and anxiety-reducing substances and reduce the brain’s production of substances that cause inflammation.
U.S. Army Grant Supports Study of Green Light Therapy for Postsurgical Pain Relief
Veterans and members of the military have been affected by opioid dependence three to four times more than civilians. The U.S. Army has granted $2.4 million to delve deep into researching how green light therapy helps with postsurgical pain management and how it reduces inflammation. This, in turn, gives these folks a safe way to feel better without the risk of drug dependency.
NEO Science, a Los Angeles-based company, manufactures light therapy equipment in the U.S.A. Our products include the NEO Light light therapy bed, a system that emits light wavelengths that reduce inflammation and boost tissue repair. These wavelengths penetrate the skin and become absorbed by cells, stimulating healing activity on the cellular level. This is all accomplished with no side effects. Green light therapy also helps with surgery recovery.
The time to begin using a safe way to reduce pain without the use of harmful drugs is now.
