Veterinary Overview

Photon therapy is an extremely effective treatment method for animals and has been in use internationally for over forty years. We at Lumen Photon Therapy™ regularly treat large and small animals, including but not limited to horses, dogs, cats, and birds for a wide variety of problems such as bone and joint injuries and infections, arthritis, soft tissue injuries, and burns.

Photon therapy is able to stimulate or sedate through acupuncture points and meridians resulting in greater health throughout the system. Our equipment settings are based partly on the research following.

Animals involved in competitive sports can achieve optimum performance through regular treatment.

Paul Nogier MD, of Lyon France, is the father of ear acupuncture and "ear medicine." Nogier made a string of new discoveries in the field of acupuncture from the 1950's to about 1990. The Chinese credit him with the development of the ear "map" as an upside down fetus representing the entire body in an organized form. By treating the ear it is possible to treat any part of the body.
In the 1970's he developed his own unique reflex test. He used the tip of his left thumb to feel the "peak amplitude" of the radial pulse of the patient as he or she lay on the back. He then held various materials in his right hand and from arm's length approached the right ear of the patient and observed changes in the pulse.
Nogier later used a frequency generator aimed at different body parts while he felt the pulse for changes. In this manner he discovered three frequencies that were in resonance with parts of the body that were derived from the three basic tissues in embryology. . An analogy is how a tuning fork for middle C will make another C tuning fork ring from a distance. He later discovered four more useful frequencies. All of the frequencies are octaves of the musical note D in the American system. These "tissue resonance frequencies" were found to apply to all living animals. He believed that during illness the frequency of tissue is outside normal ranges and healing might occur by treating over and over with the correct frequency.
Although Nogier used colored filters in his diagnostic work he never used light therapy. This step occurred in the United States after he traveled to Canada to present his findings. Veterinary acupuncturists were the first to use this discovery with LEDs. After 15 years of use the senior group of veterinary acupuncturists pooled their findings, from which we have based our Lumen™ equipment frequencies and settings.
