Powerful: 800mW Dosage - Every 90
Seconds = 4 Joule/cm2. Typical Treatment Sessions
Are Between 30 and 180 Seconds, 2 - 4 Times a Week
Effective: NASA exclusively uses light-emitting diodes
(LEDs). “LEDs stimulate the basic energy processes in
the mitochondria (energy compartments) of each cell.
DNA synthesis in fibroblasts and muscle cells has been
quintupled using LED light alone.” 2 “Evidence
indicates that cells absorb photons and transform their
energy into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the form of
energy that cells utilize. The resulting ATP is then used
to power metabolic processes; synthesize DNA, RNA,
proteins, enzymes, and other products needed to
repair or regenerate cell components; foster mitosis or
cell proliferation; and restore homeostasis.”3
LED vs. Laser (LLLT): “The light source does not
have to be a laser in order to have a therapeutic effect.
It just has to be light of the right wavelength."3
Safe: Light Therapy can safely be applied directly over
the spinal cord, joint replacements, internal metal, and
joint capsules in arthritic conditions. Muscle
stimulation and ultrasound are contraindicated in these
areas.
Depth of Penetration: Measured Spectroscopically,
light photons at wavelengths between 630-800 nm
travel 23 cm through the surface tissue and muscle.1
Affordable: Compare: price and power output to the
competition.
Horizon Light Therapy and Pricing

and actually moving towards an
infrared light source. The graph below
shows that cells respond greatest to
infrared wavelengths between 800nm
and 900nm.
