Light Therapy Resource Photopuncture and Dermatomes Charts

Targeted Red Light Therapy can be an extremely effective way to address a variety of health concerns. Targeted Red Light can be used similar to Acupuncture. Acupuncture is a popular healing modality the world over, however some are reluctant to try acupuncture because they don’t like needles. The good news is, you can now have all the benefits of acupuncture without the needles! This is due to the discovery that light of specific frequency and intensity activates acupuncture points in the same way the needles do. This is sometimes known as Photopuncture, photonic acupuncture, or acupuncture with light.

Photopuncture with light uses a light therapy device with a focused beam to activate energy points along the acupuncture meridians. These energy points and their meridians along the body are made up of a special type of electro-magnetic cells called bonham corpuscles. Research has proven that light travels along these meridians just like it does fiber optic cable, opening and balancing the energetic flow in its wake. Photopuncture with light allows us to quickly open or unblock energy – freeing and relaxing joints, muscle knots and other physical imbalances. 

Additionally, there is a growing body of scientific research supporting the effectiveness of Targeted Red Light Therapy on Dermatomes to address chronic pain issues. Dermatomes are specific regions of the skin that are connected to different nerves in the spine. By applying targeted red light to the nerve connecting from the place of pain back to the corresponding dermatome point on the spine, it can help reduce pain associated with nerve-related conditions or nerve impingements.

Depending upon what ails you, we have created a variety of Photopuncture Charts and resources to assist you with Targeted Light Therapy. Check back as we are adding and updating our directory of charts regularly!

Based upon recent scientific research, we now recommend using the red light setting, pulsing mode for 30 seconds per point. Use directly against the skin for best results. Watch this short video illustrating how this is done!

Shifting the Body Into the Parasympathetic State "rest and digest"

We recommend starting here before you begin any light therpy session. Shifting the body into the Parasympathetic State is a great way to prepare your body to receive the light. You can also use this chart anytime to relieve stress and boost your mood!
