Vielight Brain Photobiomodulation Therapy in Glasgow

Vielight is a therapy that emits red light wavelengths directly into the brain. From increasing brain performance to reducing neurodegeneration, Vielight has been shown to benefit users in over 15 published studies. 

What is it?

Vielight is the world’s only transcranial-intranasal brain photobiomodulation (PBM) device. The Vielight Neuro Duo comes with both Alpha and Gamma modes and is placed upon your head and intranasally. 

Gamma (40Hz): focus, memory, brain energy.

Alpha (10 Hz): relaxation and sleep improvement.

Main benefits

Enhanced Cognitive Function

Some studies suggest that red light therapy can improve cognitive functions such as memory, attention, and executive function. The therapy may enhance neural activity and promote cognitive performance by increasing blood flow and energy production in brain cells.

Neuroprotection

Red light has been shown to have neuroprotective effects, potentially slowing down the progression of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. It may help protect neurons from damage by reducing oxidative stress and inflammation in the brain.

Improved Mood and Depression Management

Exposure to red and near-infrared light may influence neurotransmitter levels, potentially alleviating symptoms of depression and improving mood. It is being explored as a treatment option for depressive disorders and seasonal affective disorder (SAD).

Enhanced Sleep Quality

Red light therapy can influence circadian rhythms and melatonin production, potentially improving sleep patterns and quality. This can be particularly beneficial for individuals with sleep disorders.

Reduced Inflammation and Pain

By reducing inflammation in the brain, red light therapy can also help alleviate headaches, including migraines, and other types of pain associated with conditions like TMJ disorders.

Increased Blood Flow

Red light therapy can increase blood circulation in the brain, providing more oxygen and nutrients to brain cells, which can enhance overall brain health and function.

Stimulation of Mitochondrial Function

At the cellular level, red light therapy boosts mitochondrial energy production by stimulating the cytochrome c oxidase enzyme. This increase in cellular energy production can enhance the function and repair of brain cells, leading to improved neurological health.

How does it work?

The basis of all our thoughts, behaviour and emotions is the interaction between neuronal networks communicating with each other. This interaction leads to the formation of neural electrical signals known as brainwaves.

Brain stimulation via photobiomodulation stimulates neuronal mitochondria, which increases celullar energy levels. This results in improved efficiency in neural signalling and communication.

Vielight Technology is the first in the world to demonstrate the ability to modulate brainwaves using near infrared light.

Alpha waves

Alpha brainwaves are prominent when the mind is calm and in some meditative states. Alpha is the resting state for the brain.

Alpha waves help with developing overall mental coordination, calmness and inner peace.

Initial EEG testing indicates that the Vielight Neuro Alpha’s 10 Hz pulse can elevate neural Alpha waves.

Gamma waves

Gamma brainwaves are prominent when the mind is attentive and in the process of learning. Gamma is the active state of the brain.

When Gamma oscillations are elevated, this leads to increased mental acuity.

Initial EEG testing indicates that the Vielight Neuro Gamma’s 40 Hz pulse can elevate neural Gamma waves.
