The word itself breaks down into three parts: “photo” means light, “bio” relates to cells, and “modulation” means changing something—either improving or reducing its effects. So, photobiomodulation is basically using light to help the body heal. It can ease pain, reduce inflammation, and support tissue repair.
How does light affect our cells?
When light reaches our cells, it goes straight into the mitochondria—basically, the cell’s powerhouse, where energy is made in the form of ATP. When cells are stressed, a molecule called nitric oxide gets in the way and slows ATP production, like a clogged engine running inefficiently.
But when light enters the cell, it removes that nitric oxide, freeing up the mitochondria to make energy properly again. That process helps the cell function better, improves communication with other cells, and even increases blood flow by causing nitric oxide to dilate blood vessels.
It’s kind of like how plants use sunlight for energy. Instead of helping a plant grow, this light helps our cells heal and work the way they’re supposed to.
What conditions can light therapy help with?
There’s been a ton of research—over 600 studies just last year and hundreds of clinical trials. Light therapy is being used for conditions like Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, concussions, brain injuries, strokes, depression, multiple sclerosis, and autoimmune diseases.
Patients with chronic pain conditions like fibromyalgia and neuralgia have seen good results. These conditions can last for years, but if we catch them early with light therapy, we might be able to prevent long-term suffering. It’s amazing to see someone who’s been in pain for so long finally feel relief—and even see their mental health improve.
Why hasn’t light therapy been used more in medicine?
Honestly, doctors haven’t been trained in this type of therapy.
Back in the 1960s, when scientists first started using photobiomodulation, they struggled to figure out the right dosage and didn’t have the right equipment. Now, we have advanced devices that can apply the right amount of light evenly and effectively, so the therapy is becoming much more accessible.
Are there easier ways to use photo therapy without equipment?
Yes, LifeWave patches use phototherapy to reflect the body’s own infrared light back into the skin, aiming to support natural healing, boost energy, and promote overall wellness.
How They Work
The patches reflect infrared light emitted by the body, which stimulates certain biological processes without absorbing into the skin.
Non-Transdermal: LifeWave patches are non-transdermal, meaning they do not absorb into the skin, but rather work through the infrared spectrum.
What is X39?
LifeWave X39 is a small adhesive patch that uses your body’s own infrared light to help boost energy, strength, overall wellness, and athletic performance.
Created by LifeWave founder David Schmidt, X39 is a patented product unlike anything else on the market.
This patch is designed to support energy flow throughout the body, promoting a sense of vitality and well-being.
What are people saying about X39?
What are people saying about X39?
“The results I’ve experienced using the LifeWave X39 patch have been beyond anything I expected. I committed to using the X39 patches for at least six months and I did not expect to feel any changes right away.
But within a week of starting the patches, I noticed the throbbing pain in my left foot had almost completely disappeared. Within a month, I noticed I had more mental, emotional, and physical stamina and was sleeping better. Something shifted.
For the first time in years, I felt confident I could take on projects, travel, and social activities without becoming overwhelmed and exhausted (a result of having exhausted adrenals).
The past six months have been amazing. I have traveled extensively (including a 3-week trip to Europe) and haven’t really dealt with jet lag for more than a couple of days.
My immune system is stronger. Usually, I deal with colds and respiratory infections during the fall and winter months that end up requiring antibiotics and steroids to get over it. Not so this year.
I caught a slight cold after taking 4 international flights within two days but recovered within a week.
I have stayed healthy with no problems and feel that my immune system is much stronger these days.
There are mental and emotional benefits from using the X39 patch as well.
My mental clarity is much better. I can focus and complete a task or project without being exhausted.
Emotionally I am much more optimistic and resilient.
Given all the positive benefits I’ve received from using the X39 patches, I will continue to use them and look forward to even more health improvements in the future.”
