Lew Lim and his colleagues invented intranasal light therapy (or “photobiomodulation”) as a non-invasive method to introduce therapeutic photonic energy into the human body in California in 1995. The research and development continued under MedicLights Research Inc in the 2000’s before Vielight Inc was founded to commercialize the invention.

The research data in the field of photomedicine is growing and promising. However, photomedicine requires science combined with engineering creativity to make it accessible for use in everyday life.

The intranasal channel is the gateway to the underside of the brain (least resistance) and our patented intranasal diode technology is the key.

A union between engineering and photomedicine, this wearable device holds great potential for improving neuronal health through photostimulation.

Vielight Featured on CBC's "The Nature of Things" with Dr. David Suzuki

 “The Brain’s Way of Healing”, an episode on The Nature of Things – aired on the CBC news network with David Suzuki and Dr. Norman Doidge.  The episode featured the Vielight intranasal photobiomodulation technology.  

This episode featured  Dr. Margaret Naeser a Research Professor of Neurology at Boston University who is researching the uses of an LED light helmet to treat PTSD victims. 

 There are 1.7 million cases of traumatic brain injury right now in the United States and we don't have a really good treatments for them. We give them cognitive rehabilitation therapy which is very important but we're doing the photon work and light therapy to give the cells more energy to work with."   To view the CBC Television episode please click below  Dr. Margaret Naeser, Research Professor of Neurology at Boston University
