The Science of Photobiomodulation for Brain Health

What is Near Infrared Light Therapy?

Near infrared light therapy, also known as photobiomodulation (PBM), utilizes specific wavelengths of red and near infrared light (typically 600-1100nm) to stimulate cellular function. When applied to the head via a photobiomodulation helmet, these wavelengths can penetrate the skull and reach brain tissue, where they interact with mitochondria—the powerhouses of cells.

The 810nm and 1070nm wavelengths featured in the SSCH GY-PDT1 infrared light helmet have been specifically selected for their ability to penetrate through the skull and reach brain tissue effectively. At these wavelengths, near infrared light can stimulate mitochondrial enhancement, increase ATP production (cellular energy), reduce inflammation, and potentially promote neurogenesis and synaptogenesis—key processes for brain health.

Evidence-Based Approach to Brain Health

A growing body of research supports the potential benefits of NIR light stimulation for brain health:

A small pilot double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial published in Photobiomodul Photomed Laser Surg (2019) demonstrated that transcranial photobiomodulation with near infrared light resulted in significant improvements in executive functioning, processing speed, and visual attention in participants with cognitive impairment. The study showed improvements in task switching abilities and immediate recall.

Research published in the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease (2021) indicated that regular NIR treatment was associated with improved EEG amplitude and connectivity measures in subjects with mild to moderate cognitive decline. This closely watched clinical trial suggested potential applications for dementia patients testing memory function and other cognitive domains including praxis memory and clock drawing performance.

Animal models studies have shown that NIR light stimulation may help reduce inflammation, decrease tau aggregation, and mitigate the development of amyloid β plaques—pathological hallmarks associated with Alzheimer’s disease. Unlike antibody therapy approaches such as Alzheimer’s drug solanezumab that failed to reach statistical significance in treating AD pathology, photobiomodulation offers a different mechanism of action.

While considerable pharmaceutical efforts have struggled with clinical signs of efficacy, brain photobiomodulation appears to address current pathophysiology through different mechanisms.

Potential Applications for Brain Photobiomodulation

Research suggests that regular near infrared light therapy sessions via a near infrared light helmet may support:

• Cognitive Function: Studies indicate potential improvements in memory, executive functioning, processing speed, and task switching ability. Research with dementia patients has shown promising results for improving mental clarity and cognitive performance.
• Neuroprotection: Evidence suggests NIR light may help protect neurons from physical deterioration and oxidative stress. This may be particularly relevant for individuals who develop amyloid plaques or neurofibrillary tangles, as NIR light stimulation has shown potential to influence these processes in preliminary studies.
• Traumatic Brain Injury Recovery: Clinical research indicates potential benefits for individuals recovering from traumatic brain injury by potentially mitigating consequent cognitive deficits and supporting neural repair mechanisms.
• Neuropsychiatric Support: Placebo-controlled trials suggest possible applications for conditions such as major depressive disorder and generalized anxiety disorder. Studies conducted in outpatient behavioral healthcare clinics have shown promising results for mood regulation.
• Neurodegenerative Conditions: Ongoing research explores potential supportive applications for treating AD pathology and conditions characterized by hyperphosphorylated tau protein accumulation. Some studies indicate that regular photobiomodulation therapy may influence gamma brain waves and neuro alpha/neuro gamma activity patterns that are often disrupted in neurodegenerative conditions.
• Pain Relief: Some evidence suggests that transcranial near infrared light may help with certain types of pain, potentially providing a non-pharmaceutical approach to pain management.

The Science Behind Red Light and Near Infrared Light for Brain Health

Emerging research continues to expand our understanding of how photobiomodulation may support brain health. While traditional approaches to neurological conditions face challenges, NIR light therapy represents a fundamentally different approach addressing cellular energetics and mitochondrial function.

Studies from institutions worldwide have demonstrated that near infrared wavelengths may influence various aspects of brain function:

1. Mitochondrial Function: Research indicates that red light and near infrared light can enhance mitochondrial respiration and ATP production, potentially addressing the energy deficits observed in many neurological conditions.
2. Protein Aggregation: Animal models suggest photobiomodulation may influence the processes that lead cells to develop amyloid plaques and develop neurofibrillary tangles, two key pathological features in certain neurodegenerative conditions.
3. Neural Oscillations: Studies using electroencephalography (EEG) have shown that PBM therapy may beneficially modulate brainwave patterns, including potentially enhancing gamma brain waves associated with cognitive processing.
4. Neuroinflammation: A consistent finding across multiple studies is that infrared light therapy can help reduce inflammation in neural tissue, potentially supporting overall brain health.
5. Cerebral Blood Flow: Near infrared light has been shown to enhance cerebral blood flow, which may improve nutrient delivery and waste removal in brain tissue.

The convergence of these mechanisms represents a multi-faceted approach to supporting brain function that differs significantly from other methods currently available.
