What is the usage of 10HZ,40HZ and H Breath Mode

Time : 2024-12-05
1. 10Hz (Alpha): The 10Hz mode flickers during use and is employed in transcranial photobiomodulation 
(tPBM) to promote a very relaxed, passive attention state in the brain known as the Alpha state. This mode 
is beneficial for brain Alpha stimulation and wound healing.
2. 40Hz (Gamma): The 40Hz mode is used in transcranial photobiomodulation (tPBM) to induce a highly 
alert, conscious state in the brain known as the Gamma state. This mode is effective for brain Gamma 
stimulation and wound healing.
3. H Breathing Mode: In this mode, the light power will slowly flicker from weak to strong and back again. 
This mode is designed to help new users adapt to the light therapy device.
Why Pluse?

1. Reduce tissue heating.

One of the most well-documented advantages of pulsed light in red light therapy is its ability to minimize tissue heating. Early applications of red light therapy relied on lasers, which needed to operate at low power to avoid overheating or causing burns.

Pulsing offers a solution by introducing brief "off" periods between light emissions. These pauses allow the tissue to cool, promoting thermoregulation and preventing thermal damage. This approach has enabled the safe use of higher-intensity lasers and LEDs, significantly enhancing therapeutic potential.

2. Brainwave entrainment.

The second major benefit of pulsing in red light therapy is its ability to promote brainwave entrainment. Our neurons are capable of synchronizing with external stimuli, such as the frequencies of light and sound in our environment.

By using specific frequencies—such as 10 Hz (associated with calming alpha brainwaves) or 40 Hz (linked to stimulating gamma brainwaves)—pulsing light can help the brain align with beneficial brain states. This synchronization has promising implications for addressing neurological conditions like Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s by helping restore natural brainwave patterns.

Brainwave entrainment through light is most effectively achieved via flashing lights applied to the eyes or through transcranial and intranasal red light therapy. 

This approach highlights the potential of pulsing as not just a physical therapy but also a means of supporting cognitive health and brain function.

Pulsing in red light therapy holds promise but demands rigorous scientific validation. Until clearer evidence emerges, an evidence-based and cautious approach is paramount for both researchers and practitioners.
