Mental Acuity and Photobiomodulation Archives

Mental Acuity is a category that is very important not only for Vielight, but also for the Vielight users. As a maker of personal photobiomodulation (PBM) devices, Vielight pays a lot of attention to helping individuals to support their cognitive acuity.

Vielight PBM devices offer a noninvasive way to support and maintain brain wellness. Thus, all Vielight devices carry a general wellness device designation, in accordance with the FDA guidelines.

Mental acuity and photobiomodulation may seem like a strange combination for some. In reality, numerous research studies present a very unique and supportive picture of PBM as a support for brain wellness.

Vielight Neuro vs PBM Helmets: Published Studies and Irradiance

As the original inventors of home-use brain photobiomodulation technology in 2014, we learned that effective brain photobiomodulation is not simple. Delivering the optimal amount of light energy into the brain in a safe and effective manner takes considerable research and engineering. Here are the reasons behind the Neuro's unique patented design. Full transcranial coverage [...]

What are the differences between the Vielight Neuro Alpha and Neuro Gamma devices?

The question, “When should I use an alpha frequency and when should I use a gamma frequency?” is not new. In the context of brain photobiomodulation and Vielight products, this question refers to the Vielight Neuro Alpha and Neuro Gamma devices. More specifically, answering this question requires an understanding of the differences between these [...]

Brain Stimulation: EEG Neurofeedback and Photobiomodulation

“tPBM has become a central element in my protocol design process. I find it to be an excellent complement to the functional support provided by neurofeedback.” “Helping brains develop new connections which support better function is an important part of neurofeedback training. Based on emerging research, tPBM can potentially support the growth of those [...]
