Acupuncture with Red Light Therapy vs. Needles

by Sandra Burkhart

What is Acupuncture without Needles? A Light Therapy device with a focused beam (such as the Light Therapy Resource handheld Torch) to specifically activate energy points (aka acupoints) along the acupuncture meridians. Research has proven that light travels along these meridians just like it does fiber optic cable, opening and balancing the energetic flow along the way.

This method of helping to balance and heal the body has been used for horses, pets and humans for over 30 years and is now being recognized by acupuncture schools and international light therapy programs as a valuable tool. One of the key benefits of acupuncture without needles is that it reduces the risk of injuries or potential illness that can occur with traditional acupuncture.  

This form of Acupuncture using light is usually performed by applying red light directly to the skin above the point for 15 – 45 seconds per point, depending upon the power output of the device and the specific ailment.

These devices are also excellent for helping to lower pain and increase circulation in any area of the body that is in need of care. Simply hold the light to the area for 1 – 3 minutes per area at least once a day.

With any purchase, Light Therapy Resource offers access to a library of Acupuncture Charts to assist you with what ails you or establishing and maintaining an overall healthy mind and body balance! To learn more or to purchase a torch, click here.
