Naturopathic Medicine
First Do No Harm Treat the Whole Person Identify and Treat the Cause Use the Healing Power of Nature Doctor as Teacher Prevention A discipline of medicine requiring a doctorate level education similar to degree programs in allopathic medicine, but with a different world-view that focuses on healing rather than suppression of symptoms. Unlicensed in North Carolina, which means we are free to practice Naturopathic Medicine, but not to diagnose or treat any condition.
Licensed in 15 States (and D.C. and P.R.) as Primary Care.
We are all light deficient and this deficiency may be the source of our physical and emotional problems.

Avalon pulses its lights using a solid-state device. Lights pulse at the rate of Nogier Frequencies, Solfeggio Frequencies, Shumann Frequencies, Zeropoint Frequencies.
Frequency Specific
Nogier -- seven octaves of the musical note D that
are proven to activate cellular communication
Schumann -- resonant frequencies of the Earths bioelectric field. Floods our body with a coherent matrix.

The hole was three quarters of an inch in diameter and to the bone. The second picture was after using light therapy equipment for three days, three times a day for 5-10 minutes each. The third picture was taken one week later!
A clients finger was black as death. After picture is 4 days after using light therapy for 30 minutes daily.
A 54 year-old housepainter was suffering from chemical and environmental exposure. Used light therapy twice per day for 20 minutes each. This change occurred after 3 days!
This patient had a fall from a ladder causing severe trauma to his nose. Progressive treatments were made using two light pads, with two 30 minute treatments per day for 4 days. The last photo is 8 days after treatments stopped.
This patient had suffered a stroke and was wheelchair bound. When her doctor took off her socks, he was shocked. Her feet were purple, deep cyanotic purple! This lady was going to lose those toes for sure! After one treatment, those same feet are depicted in the next frame. Note the indentations from the LED's.
The Navy Seals found that LED Light therapy pads assisted them in getting back in the field 44% quicker.

How does Light Therapy Reduce Pain and promote Systemic and Localized Benefits?

INFRARED 880 nm
BLUE 430 nm
Visible and near infrared light pass through human bone and tissue in small amounts, and the emerging light can be used to form images of the interior structure of the tissue and measure tissue blood flow and oxygen utilization.
Vascularization Testing
Tests conducted by the manufacturer with a scanning Laser Doppler, which measures circulation at 1 to 2 millimeters (microcirculation). These tests demonstrate local circulation increases of 400% to 3200% after just one 20 min. session.

Reversal of diabetic peripheral neuropathy with phototherapy (MIRE) decreases falls and fear of falling and improves activities of daily living in seniors.
Age Ageing, 2006; 35: 11-16
Overall, reversal of peripheral neuropathy in a clinicians office and subsequent use of light therapy at home was associated with a 78% reduction in falls, a 79% decrease in balancerelated fear of falling and a 72% increase in ADL (P< 0.0002 for all results)

Fibromyalgia Pain
Jeschonneck M, Grohmann G, Hein G, Sprott H
Abnormal microcirculation and temperature in skin above tender points in patients with fibromyalgia.
ADHD
In addition, evidence strongly suggests a reduction in blood flow in the prefrontal cortex for ADHD individuals. This region can be likened to a braking region in the brain, in which inhibitory judgment and control of behaviors is thought to occur.
Therefore, under activity in this critical brain region, either via deficiency in blood flow or chemical signaling agents and processes is thought to reduce the ability of the individual to inhibit unwanted responses and behaviors. As a result, impulsive behavior, which is a hallmark characteristic of ADHD is more likely to occur if this brain region is underactive.
