Light therapy in medicine plays an important role, especially in the last few years. Hippocrates also described that a bunch of diseases can be cured by using only sunlight. Now everyone already knows that the human body translates all the light received into electrochemical energy. And this leads to the activation of the biochemical process, which allows you to cover the whole body, not just the skin.
History of occurrence
Many centuries ago, man began to study light and its beneficial properties. And although they could not fully recognize its nature, already in ancient Greece, such therapy was actively used. At the beginning of the 20th century, thanks to Dr. Finsen, a native of Denmark, some forms of tuberculosis could be treated with light rays. However, at that time, doctors began to give preference to medicines. In 1938, light therapy dramatically lost its popularity, as it was replaced by penicillin.
Now, thanks to modern physicists and their developments, various devices are created that can affect the human body, based on the biological system.
It is to such developments that the Bioptron (Zepter) device , which is manufactured by a Swiss company, can be attributed.
Device structure
The Bioptron lamp consists of:
- plastic table stand;
- support pads;
- handle racks;
- oval cover with ventilation holes;
- power supply and fuse;
- halogen lamp regulator;
- grounds;
- a fan;
- control panels and display.
At the top of the control panel is the head of the device, which consists of:
- light source;
- Brewster mirrors;
- protective glass filter and dust protector;
- UV protection
- medical filter.
The device can be installed in three positions: horizontally, vertically and at an angle. The housing is designed to provide adequate cooling of the system in any of the positions. The main thing - before working with the Bioptron lamp, make sure that the ventilation hole and fan located in the oval cover are not obstructed.
The main parameters of the device
The weight of the device is not more than 0.5 kilograms. Main parameters:
- 230 V power supply
- current frequency is 50 Hz;
- color temperature allows about 2600 K;
- the rated lamp power is 20 W;
- wavelength - from 480 to 3400 nm;
- specific power - 40 mW / cm2.
The service life with proper operation of the device is unlimited.
Color filters
Since the light of the device causes excitation of active zones and dots on the skin, especially in a narrow light range, the wavelengths are different and characteristic of a particular color.
In addition to the device itself, the system includes seven Bioptron color filters and three homeopathic remedies, which in their composition contain essential oils and plant extracts that facilitate the transfer of information.
All light therapy programs, as the basis of a person’s psychophysiological state, are aimed at restoring and supporting informational and energy balance.
The light passing through the filters acquires additional properties, for example: drainage of the lymphatic and venous systems, reduction of body slagging, and so on.
Each color of the filter has its own therapeutic effect:
- red - relieves pain, restores blood fluidity, stimulates blood circulation, nervous and immune systems, and also helps with sadness;
- orange - restores the functions of the intestines and genitourinary system, eliminating inflammation, is an antidepressant, and with menopause it can reduce discomfort;
- yellow - relieves constipation, lowers acidity, helps the spleen and assimilation of food by the body, improves the lymphatic system;
- green - tones, cleanses the lungs and bronchi, fights heart diseases, helps eliminate headaches and restore the nervous system;
- blue - fights with any ENT diseases, helps heal burn wounds, relieves hyperactivity;
- blue - will relieve insomnia, depression, sinusitis, conducts epithelialization of wounds and elimination of pain syndromes in the back, joints;
- violet - a tranquilizer for the nervous system, an antiseptic, reduces blood pressure, dilates blood vessels, is able to cause active leukocyte growth in the spleen.
To achieve superior performance, colors can be combined with exposure time.
Operating principle
Bioptron treatment is very effective and safe, since the principle is based on the interaction of a light beam on the skin.
Cellular energy during light exposure is accelerated several times, which allows you to start, in addition, the microcirculation process, which affects the biostimulation of body cells. Protein metabolism increases, and this, in turn, allows the production of collagen and elastin.
The use of the Bioptron is possible either by acting directly on the problem area or on biological points.
User's manual
Despite the fact that the Bioptron Zepter system is very light and allows its use at home, it is still worth consulting a doctor. The specialist will tell you how to achieve the best result of therapy.
The Bioptron instruction is very simple:
- it is best to use the device in a relaxed state, preferably in the morning or before bedtime;
- Before use, it is necessary to clean the area of the skin from dirt and grease, on which therapeutic manipulation will be carried out;
- the device is installed at an angle of 90 degrees, but at a distance of not less than 10 centimeters from the treated area;
- 1 treatment zone should be given separately for 5-10 minutes in the morning and in the evening;
- when using the device in the face, the eyes should be closed;
- upon completion of the procedures, the device should be disconnected from the network.
During the procedures, the apparatus may cause unpleasant sensations in the field of application. But do not worry about this. There is no threat to the human body. You just need to relax as much as possible, closing your eyes. Depending on the frequency of use of the device, discomfort will pass every time.
When operating the device, you must be careful, as the elements are composed of fragile glass and plastic.
It is always necessary to check the free access of air to the ventilation openings of the apparatus in order to achieve the maximum degree of cooling.
It is worth using only original accessories. The manufacturer will not be liable for a malfunction of the device if damage was caused during operation due to non-native racks, tripods and other things.
In case of replacement or repair of the lamp of the device, it is necessary to contact only specialized workshops of warranty service. If the repair was carried out independently, then the manufacturer is not responsible for the work performed.
You should monitor the humidity in the room in which you plan to turn on the device. Wet and hot rooms should be avoided. It is desirable that the temperature is from 10 to 40 degrees.
Do not allow dust or liquids to enter the appliance. Protect from vibration and shock.
