When we arrived in NZ for six week’s holiday just after Easter, my daughter told me she had become an agent for the Bioptron light, [I must admit to never having heard of it] and she would do some treatments on me for my tinnitus, after six treatments it was 50% better than it was before, now having had more treatments it is 75% better and I can hear conversations around me that I could not hear before.
Anne also treated a bruise on the back of my leg that developed after having injections for varicose veins about 20 years ago, and it has never gone away, it has always been very black, well now after treatments on that with the light it has very nearly gone.
I am so pleased with the results I got Anne to get us a light to take back to England with us.
Oh! my husband has had treatments on his neck, he has always been in pain because of a whiplash that he received about 15 years ago, he now goes most days without pain.
So with our own light we should be fighting fit in no time, we are now in our 70's and feel that we will have many more pain free years.
I have to say thanks to the Bioptron light therapy and we wish the best for everyone who gets a light.

I wish to record the results of my experience with the Bioptron MedAll.The device has done wonders for me and I am grateful to you for bringing it NZ. Some of the ways in which I have used Bioptron with incredible efficiency are:
1. Despite a very heathy diet and plenty of exercise, in March last year I was diagnosed with both rickets and scurvy, which meant incredible pain in most of my body, and considerable disability. With the right supplements, I was slowly recovering. In August I met Fern, who was demonstrating Bioptron, and felt I may have found something that would help my recovery. I was right. After five months of intense pain, I found a high level of relief within weeks and was soon fully recovered, with full movement and comfort in my body.
2. Fern was visiting me in September last year, when I accidentally scalded my hand. My thought was A & E. Fern’s thought was to grab the Bioptron and give me a treatment. Within minutes, there was complete comfort, no redness, and no follow up of any medical treatment needed.
3. A month ago I developed a trigger finger. I used the light twice a day and could see improvement within days. I’m continuing the light treatment and there is a total absence of pain and stiffness.
4. Over the time I have owned the light, I have treated family and friends with coughs, colds, sore throats, scrapes and grazes, emotional stress - amongst a long list of other issues, with great success.
I can’t say strongly enough, that I find Bioptron the most amazing device I could have, for taking care of health and wellbeing, for myself and for the people with whom I share its incredible technology. Knowing it is totally safe brings peace of mind in using it on a regular basis for all manner of issues. Equally wonderful is using it to help prevent future problems.
Thank you and will all good wishes,

As promised I have written out some testimonies regarding my use of the Bioptron Light.
My first experience of using the Bioptron was when lifting a kayak off my car, I tore the right rotator cuff (right shoulder). The specialist surgeon I saw said that it was too badly damaged to fix which meant difficulty driving and no golf. With nothing to lose, I decided to try the Bioptron Light and after 3 months of daily use, I was back to golf with full use of my right arm.
The second incident was when cutting a tree down I tore the tendon of my left shoulder and again the Dr said that it was too damaged to fix so once more I used the Bioptron light and after 3 months of daily treatment I was back on the golf course.
Incident #3 was when I had a bad toothache rear top molar the dentist x-rayed and said I had 2 options: extraction or root canal which would cost $3000. I did not like either of these options so decided to try the Bioptron with the Fullerene lens. That was over a year ago, I still have my tooth and no ache.
Incident #4 after walking for 15 minutes my hips were getting very sore. I am 90 next birthday so I guess sore hips are to be expected, so once more I used the Bioptron with the result I can now walk for an hour before I get a little sore.
To sum up, this is my routine with the Bioptron and Fullerene lense
In conclusion, I would have to say that by using Bioptron I have saved many thousands of dollars and enjoy a pain-free life.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the use of the Bioptron Therapy Light to treat one of my clients who was suffering from shingles.
The results of using the Bioptron light on this client were amazing so much so that this painful condition was cleared up in a matter of three weeks. As you will see from the enclosed letter from my client there is no doubt that the use of the light for treating the shingles did indeed help him to recover much faster than normal
My client is now fit and well and along with him I thank you sincerely for your assistance in this matter and I would have no hesitation in recommending Bioptron to anyone in the health field.
The woman (age 27) first presented with an extensive inflammatory face infection after 6 months of Anti-biotic treatment.
Starting state before treatment:
First 10 treatment days, BIOPTRON light was applied twice daily (10 minutes), and starting from the 11th treatment day, treatment was once per day for 12 min
After 14 treatment days, the skin is not as dry. There is a lack of tension in the face, visible loss of inflamed bearings. The skin is more flexible and “lighter”.
After 26 treatment days, dry scales cease to form. The pores are no longer open. Less inclination to create new pimples, black dots cease to form. The affected pigment spots gradually return to normal skin colour.
The patient had a high number of red pimples, especially in the area of the chin (Image 2A). Bioptron Hyperlight Therapy was used during three weeks, 10 minutes/day. Thanks to the treatment, the number of pimples was significantly reduced and the few pimples that remained were smaller (Image 2B) and more superficial. At the same time, the regenerated skin looked smoother. Marks and scars almost disappeared.
Before starting the treatment, the patient’s skin was reddish with a high density of red pimples (Image 1A). The area affected reaches from the ear until the eyebrows and on the whole area of the cheek.
After treatment with Bioptron Hyperlight Therapy for 3 weeks, 10 minutes/day, the number of red pustules decreased drastically (Image 1B). Not only was the number of pustules reduced, but also the skin was not red anymore and it became smoother.

The Bioptron Light combined with a facial is a most wonderful experience. The light not only causes the creams applied to the face to have more efficacy, but it also causes lines to become less visible. The general tone and quality of the skin becomes softer, younger and more nourished. The light gives the added bonus of enhancing a general feeling of wellbeing and uplifting the spirits and the skin. It is a highly recommended experience.

I received my first information about Bioptron Light and Colour Treatments in March, this year. I found the information about face lifting unbelievable and because of that I decided to have just half of my face treated and leave the other side as the control sample without light. The treatments were in conjunction with the Oxy-Spray, Bioptron B2. lifting serum, and hydro lifting cream 2-3 times a week. At home, I did not use any of these or any other cosmetic product. After the 5th treatment, the change was clearly visible on the side of my face, that was being treated, in comparison to the untreated side. On the treated side: two deep wrinkles on my forehead completely disappeared, my eyebrow was higher my eye was more open, and the angle of my lips greater. Since I was satisfied with the results, I started to believe in Bioptron and decided to commence with the treatment of the other side of my face.
I sincerely recommend the Bioptron light treatments and Swissological cosmetics to anyone who cares about their looks and wishes to have a face with fewer wrinkles and a younger look.

I have used the Biopton Light source for more than twelve years in my cosmetic and reconstructive surgery patients and I believe that Bioptron is a great asset in my practice. it has a soothing effect on the patients and the operation site and reduces the swelling as well as the bruising at a far faster rate than normal. Dr Miroslav Colic first introduced the concept to me at an international conference and he has reported both in textbooks and in peer-reviewed journals about his experience.
I use it immediately after an operation for 10 minutes on each side and then at each following appointment I recommend the Bioptron treatment for up to 20 minutes.
I know of people who have their own Bioptron hand-held devices which they use as part of their antiaging routine. I have not seen any reported studies of that.
The advantage of the Bioptron is that it is light without UV rays and minimal blue rays and concentrates mainly on the beneficial. rays towards the red spectrum.. This light seems to facilitate the activity of the mitochondria which are the "power-stations" of our cells.

I have had a Bioptron light for 20 years, so it's not surprising I don't "look my age" - which is now considerable - given the proven capabilities of the light and even though I lead an outdoor life working on a farm. Over the years I have used Swissological products-or coconut oil (as I did for 7 years in France due to extreme poverty!) - plus jojoba oil and other natural products that promise much. It is hard to say what worked best because I used them all in conjunction with the light.
One thing that did not change, however, which has appeared over the last three years, is a patch of fine creases on my left cheek because I end up sleeping with my face scrunched up on the pillow on that side, no matter that I go to sleep on my back every night.
I bought a bottle of the Hyperlight Fluid Fusion because I'm a bit flush at the moment. along with the Swissological Multi-Regenerating Creme, on the advice of Nena, and because I'm vain enough to want to stave off the ravages of time for as long as possible.
This is my second week; I apply it every night with the MRC and morning with 'Super Fruit Hydrator'. To my surprise, I found I was straining to see my crease lines in the mirror when checking my make-up today (it only goes on at the weekend). They are still there if one locks hard, but the skin has flattened out quite a lot. I wish I had taken a Before and After photo, but I was not thinking specifically of this when I bought the Bioptron Hyperlight Fluid Fusion - just something to help me "face" the outdoors.
Needless to say I am delighted and, at last, can recommend a product that has delivered what it promises. Who knows, I may look 21 again instead of 71 by the end of the bottle.... Go Zepter!
Bedsores, also called pressure ulcers and decubitus ulcers, are injuries to skin and underlying tissue resulting from prolonged pressure on the skin. People most at risk of bedsores are those with a medical condition that limits their ability to change positions, spending most of their time in a bed or chair. Bedsores can develop quickly, some of them can heal with treatment, but some could be very difficult to heal completely.
A 60-years old lady who was incontinent and needed to use nappies, was suffering from a big bedsore at the buttocks area for 3 years, since the bedsore was not healing. She was treated at the Peers Village Retirement Home, Fishhook, (Cape Town, South Africa) with Bioptron MedAll once a day for 12 minutes, 5 times a week during one month.
Photographs were taken before the treatment with Bioptron (day 0), and 8, 14, 21 and 28 days after start the light treatment. It is evident how the ulcer is healing progressively, diminishing the affected area, as well as the depth. The inflammation of surrounding tissue is also decreased.
Thanks to the Bioptron Light Device this complicated bedsore was healed in around one month, where other treatments failed. The improvements were visible from the first week of treatment, the wound was healing and the redness and inflammation of surrounding tissue decreased. In conclusion, the use of polarized light among patients could be a very beneficial treatment to promote the healing process in severe and long-date pressure ulcers, diminishing also the inflammation, the pain and the risk of infections.

When we started the treatments on my skin, it had broken capillaries, red patches and hyper-pigmented patches with scaly skin on them. On the middle of my forehead there was a small erosion with red swollen skin around it. My skin was too dry and sensitive for me to use any cosmetic product. One weekly treatment with the Bioptron for 10 minutes — and colour therapy for 5 minutes ( both with the Oxy Spray) had very expedient results.
The bio-informed therapeutic products helped me immensely, in-home use to support treatments in The clinic, with regard to the fact that I was unable to use any other cosmetic products due to the condition of my skin. After 5 treatments the erosion had disappeared, and soon after the scaly patches did as well. The red patches were either completely gone or are still present in a much smaller radius.
Currently I started using, aside from the therapeutic products, Swissological cosmetics, which do not give me any allergic reactions. I am very impressed by the result of the light therapy and would recommend it to anyone with similar problems, particularly of my age group. I thank you sincerely for your assistance and ! really hope that many others will follow my route and experience the same wonderful results.

HIS cheeks are no longer puffy and he does not drool or stink from pus that festered in his wounds.
John, 13, is a burn victim who now lives a life less painful and ugly since he received a new form of treatment. Using light rays from Bioptron, it has hastened the healing of his burn injuries.
John (not his real name) suffered third-degree burns on a third of his body, including his chest, legs, neck and face, after a youth poured petrol on him and lit a match. The fiery attack took place in a park last Christmas.
They had squabbled over a girl and the 14-year-old attacker, who pleaded guilty on June 16, will be sentenced after the prosecution has made further submissions on him tomorrow.
The attack landed John in hospital for 42 days, during which he had several operations. He now goes for outpatient treatment at Singapore General Hospital three times a week.
Director Lina Ho offered to help the boy with Bioptron Medical Light Therapy treatment, using a device that is new in the market here.
Also used to ease pain caused by other medical conditions, such as rheumatism, sports injuries and gout,the treatment requires six to 10 sessions.
John goes every afternoon to the treatment centre on the third floor of Shaw Centre in Orchard Road and the changes have lifted the boy's spirits, said his 40-year-old mother, who declined to be identified.
He was beaming two days ago when he walked into the centre wearing trendy shoes that had wheels in their heel area. 'Being able to wear such shoes gives him an emotional lift,' added his mother.
The swellings on his face have gone down to such an extent that he can now feel her fingers on him. She was also surprised to see beads of perspiration on his face last Tuesday, for the first time since the attack, she added.

The accident occurred late October 2001, when a mentholated spirits burner was being used to fuel a steam-powered motor. The experiment had been completed and the flame presumed to have exhausted itself, unwittingly more meths was added to the container, this ignited the contents of the bottle creating an eruption of flaming meths which was projected 1.5-2 mtrs across the room engulfing our 10-year-old boy Jess on the face and head, upper body clothing and legs. He and his brother responded instantly, ripping of the flaming cloths and extinguishing the burning hair, creating severe burns to hands, head and inside legs, (it was noted that the shorts he was wearing were of a synthetic type, which melted to the leg creating the deepest scaring. He was put under a cold shower within two minutes of the incident occurring and stayed there for at least 10-15 minutes, we believe that this had a major effect on minimising the burning and with reducing the pain. When the cold and shock were affecting his situation, we donned a gown, applied wet towels and proceeded to get emergency attention.
We were dismayed with the approach of the medical profession, after pain-relief and admittance, the wounds were dressed by scrubbing off the crust and wanting to apply paraffin oil (petroleum-based) and pop all of his blisters. To this we declined, feeling that our body knows best, this intervention would have resulted in open wounds being exposed within a hospital environment, it just did not make sense! The only other "treatment" offered was drugs for pain relief; we were emitted within 24 hours. We encouraged Jess to drink lots of good water, and his wounds were continually kept soft with the application of lavender oil throughout the entire experience.
Arriving home (day 2), we were now able to start a comprehensive treatment process, having obtained the Bioptron light and handbook; Jesse's wounds were sprayed before and after the light therapy with the Oxy Spray, (we used two 500ml bottles over the 8-day treatment). Using the blue lens, we applied the Bioptron light twice a day, for four minutes, point by point around the burnt areas, this process took approx. 2 hrs each sitting and was maintained for four days. We then reduced the time to two minutes each point for a further four days sometimes with the blue lens and sometimes without, Oxy Spray was applied to each point throughout, both before and after each light therapy.
The rapid re-generation of new skin was amazing, with a noticeable improvement by the hour in the first few days. After 4-5 days, the scabs started to shed revealing beautiful new skin underneath. We noticed that with the areas where the scabs were picked off prematurely longer term scaring or a highlighted pink coloured skin tone has resulted, all other areas except where the melted pants adhered, the new skin had formed within one week of the application of the light treatment.
By reporter:
When her 10-year-old son Jess suffered severe methylated spirits burns to his face hands and legs, Warkworth woman Debra Taylor was afraid her son would carry the physical as well as emotional scars for life.
The severe burning on his face, hands and legs has healed to such a degree, virtually no scarring is now visible at all. “The rapid regeneration of new skin was amazing,” says Debra. “There was a noticeable improvement by the hour in the first few days. My father was convinced that Jess would be left scarred and even he's amazed at the result.”
It was late last year when Jess was badly burned after a Bunsen burner full of meths, which he was using at home for a service experiment, exploded. His father Immediately placed Jess under a cold shower and gave him the homeopathic remedy Canthans. than took him to hospital.
The next day Debra and husband David Kay brought Jess home and began immediate treatment with the Bioptron light, initially for two-hour sessions twice a day. then decreasing the time as the healing rapidly began.
To supplement the treatment. Debra and David also applied high grade lavender oil to the burned areas. Within four days. scabs began to shed, revealing beautiful new skin underneath.
“Within a month, Jess was back on the water salting in his Optimist, with a large brimmed hat and good sunscreen protection,” says Debra. 'At this point, It was hard to notice the ordeal he had endured!
Within one month, Jess was back on the water sailing in his opti-sail boat, with a large brimmed hat and good sunscreen protection. At this point, it was hard to notice the ordeal that he had endured; with close examination, a slight pigmentation to the picked areas and inside legs is all that is noticeable.
We all are most grateful to have had the use of the Bioptron light for the treatment of our son Jess, his recovery has been astounding, to that we can assume that the treatment described hereto has helped with such a pleasing result.
A little girl diagnosed with Down syndrome and Autism put her hand on a hot cooking plate, causing her several burns. The parents were worried about whether their daughter would stay quiet and if it would be possible to apply the light therapy to her. The surprise was that she was calm and accepted the therapy with Bioptron perfectly (A).
Bioptron with Fullerene filter was applied directly on the hand for 2 weeks: first week session of 10 min twice or three times per day, and the second-week session of 10 mins once per day.
The progression of the burns at different stages (B-G) show the positive burn healing over a 2 week period of Bioptron treatment. As represented in the photos the skin under the burn wound regenerates very fast and is in a very good condition, allowing the patient to recover very quickly. In addition, in this particular case where the good and regular treatment application could be compromised for the potential agitation of the child, Bioptron accelerate the healing process in a pleasant and effective way.

Zelda came for Light Treatment and was very happy. Her knee is almost completely healed only a half cm square gap to fill. We cannot attribute it all to the Bioptron because she also has a Chinese magnetic heater that she has used with Oxy Spray between sessions here. However we know and believe that BIOPTRON did it!!
She went to the skin specialist and was amazed and couldn't stop laughing. He said “I had you booked in for skin graft - there was NO WAY that could heal! Whatever you are doing keep doing it. it works!!”
What amazed me was when I said “I HOPE YOU TOLD HIM”. She said "He didn't want to know”. Are you tearing your hair out? I AM!! Can you believe it.
Conservative management of a non-healing burn wound located on the right foot of a 66- year-old diabetic patient. The wound area was managed conservatively at the Concord Hospital Burns Unit using conventional methods for 19 weeks with negligible improvement. After 19 weeks, Bioptron Light Therapy commenced. The use of Wound gel and dressing was continued during this time in conjunction with the Light Therapy using the Compact BIOPTRON lamp. This treatment resulted in the closure of the wound 15.5 weeks after commencement of Light Therapy.

In response to our recent conversation regarding the use of polarized light via the Bioptron light therapy system, I wish to clarify our current usage at the Burns Unit at Concord Hospital.
Since its inception here at the Burns Unit we have successfully employed the technology of polarized light therapy on several hundred patients with chronic non healing wounds. This is undertaken as a routine adjunct in our wound care and there is no billing connected to this service as it is undertaken during the routine dressing changes.
This is not a first-line treatment in our regime, rather we apply the technique as an adjunct to wounds we find problematic and slow or non healing. This includes previously grafted wounds and non healing donor sites from skin graft harvesting procedures. There are no complaints of patients to note and as we monitor the ongoing treatment and long term outcomes (over years) we have not recorded any side effects or discomfort on any of our patients.
Thank you for assisting with this technology and rest assured we are planning to continue to use the Bioptron light therapy system for our patients.

Although I am slim, for the past four years I have had a problem with cellulite around my thighs and legs, I felt embarrassed wearing my bikini. I exercised, watched my diet, and did all the right things - to no avail. After researching what causes cellulite and discovering there was "no real cure" other than what I had been doing I felt I would be stuck with it for good.
By chance I came across the Bioptron Light Therapy together with cellulite massage at the Spine & Body Clinic in Henderson. At first I was skeptical - it seemed too easy - especially after years of hard workouts and no results...
4 months later my cellulite has nearly disappeared - I feel like I discovered gold - my confidence is restored and I'm ecstatic with the results - If you have cellulite you have to try the Bioptron - it does work.

At the end of winter last year I was looking through my clothes to see what would be okay to wear in the summer. I tried on a pair of shorts I had worn the previous summer, what a nasty shock I got when I saw all this horrible lumpy skin that looked like orange pee!. Next time I saw Barbara, at the Spine & Body Clinic, I asked her about the cellulite treatment with Bioptron she had advertised, Barbara had me convinced and within two treatment, I could already notice a difference. By the time I had finished my eight treatments all the cellulite had gone, my legs looked nice and firm and best of all my clothes were fitting a lot better. It was much easier than dieting or spending hours at the gym!

My five-month-old daughter Caitlin has suffered for a while with bad eczema on her face, ears, neck, elbows, back of the knees and ankles.
I was recommended by a friend of mine to give the Bioptron light and colour therapy a go. I decided to try it in mid March. For the first 10 treatments, Caitlin had a half an hour every second day and her skin came right completely. The eczema is no longer visible, there are no signs of dermatitis or cradle cap and she has come off losec and has no reflux any more.
Now she has one treatment a week just for maintenance and eats and sleeps well and grows as a very healthy and happy baby.
I do recommend to all mothers that have got babies with similar problems to give the Bioptron a go. They are completely safe and babies do enjoy them.

I have had eczema, dermatitis and contact dermatitis intermittently all my life. In fact I first developed it in the first few days of life. I was plagued with it during my early life and although most of my adult life has been spent finding the best way to deal with it, success has been varied.
Diet and environment have a great deal of influence on this condition and although I'm aware of all the elements that trigger its onset, it has continued to break out inconveniently on regular occasions.
Earlier this year I started treating my hands (which are the most susceptible) with the Bioptron light and Oxy-Spray, followed by Swissological Multi-Regenerating Cream, treating the area consistently twice a day, with steady and sure results. I noticed that the results were more long-lasting when treatment continued until ALL traces had disappeared.
However, the most remarkable result for me came about 5 months ago when my hands broke out yet again and after a week of itching, red raw skin I decided it was time for some light therapy. But this time I decided to try the #11 Colour Therapy programme for facial and body skin problems.
Within days the raw itching sensation had stopped; by the end of the first week clean new skin was appearing through the flaky dead skin. Interestingly I only treated my hands specifically (the only affected area) once during the whole time the schedule was being implemented. After each application my face took on a distinctive "glow". Since completing the programme the condition has not returned since.
It has been a very satisfying result thanks to Bioptron and its Colour programme.
Eczema had been making life hell for this little chap, and his family, but now we are well on the way to seeing a nice looking little lad leading an better life.
In just four treatments the eczema on this child has been greatly improved with the use of Bioptron Light.

Bioptron is the our main daily routine in keeping my daughter’s eczema away. The Oxy spray and light therapy improved her skin situation so much, that we not longer need to worry about it and have managed to reduced the need for all other creams and moisturisers.

At the end of February this year, my daughter 20 months old at the time got a mild case of chicken pox. It was completely cleared up within 10 to 12 days. About weeks later after the rashes had cleared up (Easter) she developed a skin rash it showed up with what my husband and I thought were flea bites or mozzie bites just 3 small pinhead blisters, this number doubled each day on that knee which I took a photo to ask a friend what she thought it was (photo below) and soon by a week it turned into a big dry itching blotch on her whole knee. I decided to take her to the doctor and he confirmed that it was in fact eczema. She prescribed an aqueous cream and steroid cream. However we did not want to use these on her so we did some research and found that turmeric oil helps so I made my own organic turmeric oil as I couldn't buy it anywhere and I mixed with the following essential oils: neem oil, lavender oil, tea-tree oil, patchouli oil, and sandalwood oil and i mixed it together with organic coconut oil and share butter and Weleda skin food (photo below). I used that cream and also Rhino Repair on the affected areas and I bought a cream called Aquaderm cream to put over the rest of her body and bathed her in colloidal oat bath soak. (photos below) I even got Artemis itch calm which she refused to take anyway.
This took away the itch and stopped the rash/blotch from spreading but it didn’t seem to be clearing it up. More research we did made me think she had food allergies but my husband found a research study stating that the chicken pox virus can stay in the system and cause a viral autoimmune attack on the the skin. We ended up using the steroid cream once a day as it started to now spread up and down the leg and then starting the appear on the other leg too. My neighbour told me chickweed cream was good for eczema and also gave me contact info to a lady who did bio-resonance, so I ordered the chickweed cream as well as cell foods oxygen gel and booked in with Helen (bio resonance lady)
We went to see Helen on a Friday afternoon. She ran tests and did treatments and gave us a magnet disc that Malika was to wear for a month.
She concluded that Malika did indeed have the chicken pox virus in her system still and that she was allergic to dairy and was intolerant to soy and wheat, she told me to put Malika on fish oil and probiotics. So I went off to buy those and also new foods she could eat as well as allergy cookbooks and we also bought all new clothes for Malika we only use 1005 cotton, pure merino and bamboo now and allow nylon but no more synthetic wools or polyesters.
But the Monday 3 days after the treatment Malika was now covered in the rash feet, legs, arms, hands, back, and tummy. I told Helen and she said this was normal it was the treatment and the magnet chip pulling the virus out over her system, I then went on to find out oregano oil could help when I was researching it for something else so I mixed a couple of drops in the chickweed and I used this and the rhino repair only it seems to be helping I used for 2 days.
Then I thought of the Bioptron light I pulled it out with my books and started to use it I ad a full bottle of the oxy water which Malika threw off the bed and it hit the draws when went to use it again it exploded and went everywhere. So I used the light gel instead using the light twice and the gel twice.
There was clearly a difference the rash wasn’t flared up red and she stopped scratching. The next day after 2 more treatments with the light and using the gel, it had reduced. Each day it reduced more and more. By the third day I stopped Using everything else and just used the light and gel as I could see it was the only thing that showed the best result in healing her.
An 18-year-old male patient with facial trauma has been hospitalized for 7 days after a car accident. In addition to the initial treatments from plastic surgery and dentistry clinics, Bioptron hyperlight therapy was started two days after the accident for the treatment of soft tissue trauma, such as bruises, wounds, and scrapes around the mouth and nose area of the patient. Bioptron is used every day, for 15 minutes from a distance of 5 cm for the first 5 days of treatment. Stitches of the wound were removed 10 days after the accident.
Bioptron Hyperlight therapy applications were continued for 3 months, twice per week using the same settings. The healing of the soft tissue was observed and reported with photographs. While the skin covering the scar was red and overgrown initially, it has improved successfully during the Bioptron treatment duration by getting smoother and changing into similar color to the rest of the skin.
A patient from Switzerland, who presented chronic psoriasis symptoms, but from time to time there were severe flare-ups, when the whole back area was affected.
During the last cycle, the patient treated herself with Bioptron Pro1. Bioptron was used as a monotherapy (no other treatment was applied), once a day at a 10 cm distance for 60 minutes, in 10-minute treatments on 6 areas - in order to cover the whole surface of the back.
Before the treatment with Bioptron Hyperlight Therapy, the whole surface of her back was covered with red patches. Moreover, there were pustules on the skin and it was very rough.
After 9 days of Bioptron Hyperlight Therapy treatment, the red patches turned into milder pink, which was a marker of inflammation decrease. The number of pustules was highly reduced and the skin was smoother.
After additional 6 days of Therapy, the redness further decreased, while the pustules almost disappeared.
After 17 days in total, the patient’s back has recovered drastically. The redness almost completely vanished, there are no pustules, and the repaired skin is smooth and without inflammation.

I have suffered from psoriasis of the feet for the last 2 years and have put up with the irritation using only Dermovate cream for the small relief it provides.
I had 2 treatments with acupuncture and Bioptron Light Therapy before continuing with straight light applications for a period of 2 weeks. I was regularly using the light morning and night and after the 3rd week when the condition had settled down, I was less diligent in my rate of application.
Both feet had cleared completely of the condition much to my relief by the end of the 3rd week. The last 4 months have seen the condition flare up only once since then and it was remedied by two light treatments.
If the pustules ever return I will certainly halt its progress by simply applying the light for another couple of treatments. This tool is brilliant at breaking the cycle of psoriasis and giving normality back to life.
The simplicity of this therapy belies the effectiveness of the work the light can achieve in all areas of health. The greatest relief is knowing the light is always there and doesn’t require a trip to the Doctor or more expensive creams. The average psoriasis sufferer will have spent more on creams potions and Drs visits than the cost of one of these Lights.
The physical and emotional relief this light provides has made it one of my better investments.
A patient from Switzerland suffered from psoriasis on her hand and feet, manifested in a very dry, reddish and even peeling skin.
Bioptron Hyperlight Therapy was used in combination with cortisone cream and baths to calm the itching. Bioptron Hyperlight Therapy treatments were done once per day, for 10 minutes on each affected area: the back of the left hand, the back of the right hand, the palm of the left hand, the palm of the right hand, the sole of the left foot and the sole of the right foot.
Before Bioptron Hyperlight Therapy, the whole hand was very dry and rough and the skin of the palm is peeling. The patient also remarked that the skin underneath such patches was very sensitive and painful to the touch.
After the entire treatment the palms of her hands are very smooth, no peeling is observed anymore. Also, the back of her hands is no longer dry and rough, but soft and vivid.
As for the feet, at the start of the therapy the right foot was peeling on the big toe and the sole. Also, the pad of the foot is very dry. The left foot is peeling at the side of the foot and the skin is very dry. Also, the upper surface of the feet is peeling and the skin is red.
After the therapy, both feet improved drastically. The soles of the feet are very smooth, the skin is not peeling anymore. Moreover, the surface of the feet has changed from reddish and peeling into smooth and shining skin. Furthermore, the feet are no longer inflamed and the swelling has disappeared.

Two years ago I was gardening with un-gloved hands. The next day my finger started to hurt. I thought I had a prickle in it and tried to get it out with a needle. The next thing I knew, the skin started to peel until I had a completely raw fingertip. This looked like it was at least three layers deep. For about four days I tried all my natural treatments, but nothing seemed to work. I decided to go to the doctor and they informed me it was quite serious and I was given a dose of antibiotics. I took the antibiotics for five days with not the slightest bit of improvement. I left it for a few more days and then returned to the medical centre, I was seen by a different doctor, and this doctor diagnosed a fungal infection and gave me some fungal medication and ointment to apply. However all this was to no avail. Several months later, my finger was still raw and I decided to try the Bioptron light that I had heard about. A Bioptron agent came to my house and performed a treatment on me and within a couple of hours I knew that my finger had improved by at least 10%. I then purchased my own light and having carried out treatments every day for a week, my finger had completely healed. The Bioptron light has been great to me, I love being able to help myself and I can use it on so many different things for both myself and for my family.

Just a quick note to let you know my mother's ulcer cleared up within 3 months of treatment with the heat lamp. (Bloptron Light) The Family are delighted. The doctor is impressed. We are sure the lamp did the trick in healing.
The lamp is now being used around family members for sore becks and aches and pains.
Thank you kindly for your initial treatments of my mother and advising us to purchase a lamp. (Bioptron Light)

I am really delighted to tell anyone and everyone about what Bioptron Light has done for me.
For many years I suffered from a recurring ulcer on my ankle. This progressed to being worse and constant. I tried every remedy in and out of all the books. Finally, I submitted to a specialist surgeon who assured me he would rectify this problem. However $3000 later the condition went from bad to much worse. I felt I was on the 'slippery slope' with so many activities being curtailed.
As a practising Natural Therapist, I thought I knew 'most of it' but decided to consult a Naturopath who suggested I give Bioptron Light a 'go'. In fact, she lent me her Light for a few days and the condition improved just SO much that I decided to purchase a unit for myself. A decision I have never regretted. Not only has it healed my ulcer... and quickly at that... but also has assisted my general health and I have been able with the Light to help friends with problems from acne to conjunctivitis.
Definitely Bioptron Light is one of my very best friends! In fact, I think every home should have one!

I had a venous ulcer on my left inside ankle for almost FIVE YEARS. I pursued every treatment option I had found, including having my great saphenous veins stripped, Manuka honey, crystal therapy, lymphatic therapy, magnet therapy, years of four-layer compression bandaging and ultrasonic debriding (extremely painful!) Over the almost five years I had cycled in and out of optimism, depression, weight gain, lethargy, lack of exercise, hopelessness, always chronic pain, sleeplessness, etc. The journey has been amazing, the people I have met and the treatments I have tried have been wonderful. All the treatments helped a little but nothing ever make the ulcer heal completely.
After four months of ten minutes twice daily shining the BIOPTRON polychromatic light on my ulcer, it has finally completely healed!!! Hooray!
Thank you Stephen for coming to my house to demonstrate its use, leaving me with all the information and making more available to me. I followed up with a couple of authors of papers myself before deciding to buy the BIOPTRON light. All I can say is, it worked for me! Now I just have to save up to get the bigger model for my clinic!
Decubitus ulcer is a bedsore consequence of lying or sitting in one position for a very long period. These types of ulcers most often develop on skin that covers bony areas of the body, such as the heels, ankles, hips and tailbone. Although often they could be prevented and treatable if detected early, pressure ulcers can be very difficult to prevent in critically ill people, frail elders and individuals with impaired mobility such as wheelchair users. In these cases decubitus ulcers could became a very serious problem.
A 94 old lady had an impaired mobility due to her complicated medical history (spondylarthroses, colorectal cancer, cardiac decompensation, Alzheimer's disease, high blood pressure and deep vein thrombosis of postoperative lower limbs). She developed a very serious and deep decubitus ulcer at the heel. During one month and a half the patient was treated with standard methods but the wound continued to grow, becoming necrosed (the tissue dies as a result of blood and oxygen deprivation of its cells)
After removing the necrotic tissue, the heel started to be treated once a day for 5 minutes with Bioptron with the red filter, followed by the standardized cleaning treatment.
To follow the evolution of the wound, photographs were taken at different time intervals after the light therapy session and before covering the wound, as well as measurements and comments about the wound aspect and evolution. Before start the treatment, the size of the wound was 4.5cm long, 3cm large and about 1cm deep.
During the first days a diminution of fibrin and an improvement of the ulcer bounds were evident. After 15 days of light therapy the wound started to close properly and decreased in size: less than 4cm long, 2.5cm at the widest point, and less than 0.5 cm depth. At day 43 the wound was superficial, almost healed (size 1.8cm long and 0.8cm at the largest point). At day 67 the wound is only 0.5mm in diameter and the bounds completely healthy and healed.
In this case, despite the general bad condition of the patient (including poor nutrition and hydration), the wound healed quick and healthily. Under the point of view of the experienced nurse who follow-up and took care of the patient, without Bioptron Light therapy the wound would of exacerbated and get worst. Bioptron is a beneficial device to heal difficult ulcers that could not be cured otherwise.

On February 10, 2001 a small stone entered my shoe, piercing the underside of my foot. On March 2001, due to insufficient circulation in my legs I underwent angioplasty to my right leg.
This was unsuccessful and a chronic ulcer formed at the site of the injury.
In June 2001 I was admitted to Middlemore Hospital for a Femural Bypass, resulting in a slight improvement of the ulcer, but it again deteriorated after tripping at work. I was then admitted back into Middlemore for a surgical debridement and a 3 month course of antibiotics as osteomyelitis was present in the bone.
I was constantly under the care of the Super Clinic Podiatrist and the District nurses- one of whom mentioned a patient who was successfully treated with a “special light”. This was in March 2002.
After making some enquiries I discovered a friend also owned a BIOPTRON lamp and was very positive about its healing qualities. I contacted Audrey Tomlin and she loaned me a light for a week, which resulted in my decision to purchase a lamp for myself.
The rest is history!!!.
The ulcer under my first M T P Joint responded to the BIOPTRON lamp so well that by December 2002 the ulcer had almost healed.
The results of the BIOPTRON lamp have amazed my doctor.

About mid December, I noticed a red mark on the back of my left leg. It was a bit sore. There were vein like marks spouting out from the red sore. It was very small.
I went away in December for three weeks and there was little change in the leg and it was not a problem. When I returned to Auckland I found that the sore was spreading. It was troubling me, so I went to Dr. Wong at the Titirangi Medical Centre on January 10th 2002.
Doctor and nurses were puzzled and thought it might be an ulcer. They applied various types of dressings approximately every 2 days. The sores become worse, more inflamed and the leg appeared to be rotting. Black patches appeared daily on the sore (see photo) and they said it was dead skin. They proceeded to pick at the sore (to remove black skin) and I was in agony.
After about 3 weeks I could bear it no longer and consulted a prominent skin specialist – Professor Shaw.He looked at the wound, shook his head and said, “I’m not going to charge you because I don’t know what it is!”He referred me to surgeon Wilbur Familla, who is based at the Super Clinic at Manukau City. He is known to me and saw me for a gall bladder problem. I also have a serious heart condition.
He saw me about a week later was not sure what it was and referred me to a Dermatologist at the Super Clinic. She was Darian Rowan, I saw her about a week later. The pain was unbearable, it was agonizing, and I could not walk on it. I could not eat and felt really, really ill all that time. My family and I and the Bishop of our church were really afraid that I was going to loose my leg.
Darian Rowan a prominent surgeon got a photographer to take photos of the wound and told me to come back the following week to have a biopsy done.
Another week was to go by. I never heard from her for two or more weeks and than I received a letter from her. She wrote that she would refer me to the North Shore Hospital and they would contact me in due course. By this time, the Bishop of our church had become very concerned about my condition and told me to contact a specialist and said that church fund would pay. I found a Dr. Scollay who saw me almost immediately and told me to come back the next day for a biopsy. I have just been told that a letter of his findings has been sent to Dr Joseph of the White Cross Hospital in Ellerslie. I have requested a copy.
About this time I became aware of the Bioptron Light. I had heard John Gillespie talking about this light and its remedial cures for many complaints including leg sores etc. I was not sleeping at all some nights, and I was in agony and thought “Well. I’ve got nothing to lose”, so I rang up Radio Pacific and asked John to contact me. He came around to give me my first treatment on 21st March and is still treating me almost daily.
The dead tissue is all gone and the healing process is quite remarkable. We have a few photographs taken of what turned out to be a giant venous ulcer or so they say, although it might have been originally a white-tail spider bite!
John also uses an Oxy Spray, before and after Bioptron Light Therapy as a mild disinfectant and to speed up the healing process.
The Waitakere District Nurses, after telling me that the leg would take months or even up to a year to heal, are now really impressed to say the least, as was Tom Morris - specialist of Epsom, who I was sent to for treatment. His charges were about $250.00 and I did not benefit from the treatment or instructions, a really unbearable stocking, so very tight it cut off the blood supply.
I am really grateful to John and the Bioptron Light because I have been through a lot of pain, agony and expense trying to regain my health. Consultation and treatment from one specialist alone cost me $750.00 which my church paid for and for which I am thankful.

DIAGNOSIS:
MANAGEMENT:
COMMENT:
Enclosed is a copy of the eventual report on the histology of a generous biopsy from Mrs Fletcher's ulcer. These show changes of lipo-dermatosclerosis which is a change most often seen in ulcers due to venous hypertension (stasis ulceration).
While I realise that this is occurring in the context of a clinical picture, where there is no evidence of venous veins, this in no way denies the diagnosis.
The management that flows from this understanding of the etiology of Mrs Fletcher's ulcer is on assessment of the venous anatomy of her leg by a specialist vascular unit, such as Mr Tom Morris' and the initial use of compression stockings to heal the ulcer. Hopefully surgically remediable causes of venous hypertension will be found and they con be dealt with.

As you know, Colin developed an ulcer on his right leg, lower calf muscle. This was caused by a scratch from a piece of steel in Mid – January. He went to the doctor on the 20th of January, as it had obviously developed an infection. This infection did not heal, even after taking five lots of antibiotics, and had developed into a large, deep and painful ulcer by the end of April. It was being dressed twice a week by the local District Nurses and Panadol was being taken at night and often during the day for pain relief.
At this time, there seemed to be no solution to the problem and it seemed to be getting worse each time we removed the bandage.
Colin was referred to the Ulcer Clinic and a Specialist who prescribed a Compression Stocking. At the same time he purchased the Bioptron Light from you and began treatment twice a day. With the light and the stocking, the wound immediately began to heal. This was more obvious when we were able to treat with the light when the bandage was removed. We were amazed to be able to see the granulation occuring during treatment. The District Nurses were also amazed at how quickly healing took place. By the first week in September it was completely healed leaving very little scarring. We are quite convinced that Bioptron Light Treatment played a large part in the turn around and healing of the Ulcer.
Thank you for introducing us to it!

In May 2001 I developed a large red welt on my leg which was unrecognised by medical staff at the local Health Centre apart from being an infection, but later recognised by a person who had previously been bitten by a white-tailed spider.
The District Nurses gained information from the internet that the spider was flesh-eating, usually obtaining its venom by eating the common “Daddy Longlegs" New Zealand spider; that there was no known antidote and that it was unaffected by all known antibiotics. All this was confirmed by an Australian Research Programme. Züriker information revealed that the effects of a bite were relentlessly ongoing for older people with poor circulation and frail skein, often resulting in deep sealed ulcers necessitating skin grafts and in some cases amputation.
In spite of many and varied treatments tried, the bite increased in size and a consultant ordered 2 weeks bed rest in hospital. followed by what eventually turned out to be a very damaging leg bandage.
The District Nurses (Tauranga Hospital) asked Judy Alvos if she would do a case study using the Bioptron Lamp Therapy, which she did commence with 4 mornings of concentrated colour therapy, using the large light.
This was followed by intensive morning and night use of a compact lamp by myself, monitored once a week by Judy.
The improvement in the area which was rapid at first evened out to a steady gain and after 3 1/2 months in total of the use of the lamp, the bite finally healed.
The photographs showing the dreadful state of my leg after the use of the specialist bandage which were sealed to be seen at the consultant's clinic, were never acknowledged.
I am extremely grateful for the use of the Bioptron lamp and especially for the care and attention from Judy Alvos.

We have been using the Bioptron Light Machine in Shoal Bay Villa Rest Home for about two months now, mainly on leg ulcers and wounds for the joy of both my residents and mine. Four minutes per day on the wound with some oxy spray is all that you need to do. No Dressings on the wounds saved me some money but time as well. Wounds and bruises after injuries usually heal very slowly with old people and sometimes get infected, this prolongs the healing even more, With Bioptron Light Machine wounds after injuries healed nicely and quickly without any complications. Chronic al wounds haven't yet healed completely but are getting smaller, less inflamed, and the surrounding skin has got a healthier colour showing that the circulation has been improving.
I would recommend to everybody who has similar problems with wounds or leg ulcers to give it a go with the Bioptron Light Machine. You don't have anything to lose, there are no side effects and no harm that this wonderful machine can do to your body and I am pretty sure that it will help you as it has helped my residents.

I used both the small colour lamp and the large lamp for about 10 years. Favour the colour lamp.
For my daughter, the cat accidentally scratched her nose and cheek. The next morning her face was painful, pussy reddened and weeping. The doctor’s medication caused a large blister to form. 20 minutes with red and the pain was relieved. And the next morning the blister was marginalized. Within 5 days just a slight scar could be seen. Now completely healed without any scar.
Watched closely by the rest of the office who could not believe what the magic lamp did (used the large standard lamp and Oxy Spray 2 minutes each day after the initial small lamp treatment)

I purchased a Bioptron Colour Therapy light last year.(September)
I'd just like to tell others about how great it is.
I used it on my son who had an operation which was in a place that would be hard to heal. I used the Bioptron light plus the blue and purple colour therapy on him for 4 times a day for five weeks, he had no bruising. The pain was kept to a low level and the healing of the area was really good.
We had such great results, that even the surgeon had said, he had healed up really well. I had told him what I'd be doing and he said that the operation my son had had can take months to heal.
So glad I purchased the Bioptron light from Cynthia.
I have a sister who has one as well. She told me all about it.

I came to the Light and Colour Clinic because I had a post-surgical wound that wouldn’t heal for two years.
Two years ago I had an abscess in tissue covering the end of the tailbone. it was caused by an ingrown hair going very deep into the tissue. The hair was taken out surgically but the wound was very deep and kept weeping and couldn’t heal.
I tried everything else and the Light and Colour Clinic was a last resort.
Initially, I was coming every second day for three months and then twice a week for another three months and the wound healed completely.
I would like to let more people know about this very gentle but successful treatment that I really enjoyed.

As an ex-farmer and semi-retired builder I am of the old mould of land person and for years have taken the various accidents, bumps and knocks in my stride, believing that my body will heal itself somehow and let me get on with my work. But as I've got older the body seems to take much longer to get over even the smallest hurt.
Alternative Therapies have always fascinated me so when I was first told about Bioptron a year ago I decided to investigate and soon became convinced that if it could assist and regenerate the body and strengthen the immune system then it would certainly assist me. So we bought not one but two lights - one for ourselves and one to loan to friends so that they too could come to know its healing powers.
Just recently I had the misfortune (and opportunity) to test the light to its limits. Working on a building I jumped down from an upper level onto a 4-inch nail protruding out from a piece of 4 x 2 timber. The nail went through my sandshoe and penetrated some 3 to 4 centimetres sideways into the arch of my left foot. It was late afternoon so with a very painful and bleeding foot, I left for home immediately.
On reaching home some 15 minutes later my first thoughts were to bathe the wound in very hot water and then put it up so that it wouldn't throb so painfully and then decide what to do next. My wife said to me "Why don't you use the light?"
I realized that I had completely overlooked using the light on myself but after a quick Oxy- Spray, I began using the little light. After only a few minutes the pain had abated by at least 75-80% so I continued on for another 4 minutes and then retired to bed where I slept all night.
Next morning I got up as per normal and carried out my usual chores before heading off for work. As I walked to the car my wife said "How is your foot?" and I was stunned to realize I had no pain, no discomfort walking and in fact had completely forgotten about yesterday's accident.
Thank God for a non rusty nail and Fern & David for introducing us to Bioptron.

During the Show while talking to a client, I noticed what appeared to be a dummy slouched in a chair at the furthest end of the aisle from our stand. It was still there some 5 minutes later when the client left. It looked very strange with an arm hanging down on the left side but no sign of a head. I decided to go and see what it was about because it was not on a stand but in an area designated for casual seating next to a table.
As I approached it became apparent it was a male human. The head was slumped onto the chest in an awkward way and 2 pamphlets had fallen from the hand onto the floor. The person was obviously in some state of distress.
The person's eyes were partially open and I asked what the problem was. He replied "Seizure". I asked if it was heart or head and he replied "Epilepsy". Because there was no power I got someone to assist me to lift and carry him back to our stand.
I treated purple on the pineal (Shock reduction) then purple over the motor cortex of the head. As the light passed over the centre between the hemispherical divide he gave a "flinch" and then sat up straight. I continued to do the rest of the 4-minute Relax on the pineal. He then fell asleep. When he awoke about 2 minutes later, he said he was thirsty so I gave him a glass of water.
On enquiring about his condition he told Dianna that he could feel blood flow coursing through his legs and this was a similar effect to the tablets he would normally have to take after a seizure (Diapazan) but without a headache. He mentioned he suffered from Tinnitus in both ears so I unblocked the top of the Parotid gland on each side to free up the lymphatic glands. He swallowed a few times and commented he could feel fluid flowing down the inside of his face. Within minutes the neuralgia on both sides of his face as well as the tinnitus had gone.
He was able to stand up on his own and did not require his stick to steady himself. He was seen later walking around the stands quite normally.

Six months into my eye treatment I have to report my right eye which was damaged by a truck passing over me responded to the Bioptron Light by ceasing to be constantly inflamed and sore after 3 months. General eye health has improved beyond what I cataract in the right eye tested minimally better at 3 months, but I have yet to be tested at 6 months.
I will let you know when it takes place, however 42 years of inflammation in the right eye being reversed in 3 months is quite an impressive turn-around.

I am very well pleased with the results of treatments with The Bioptron healing light, spasmodically applied over about two months, my eyesight has improved to the point where I can now use the computer and read newspapers without needing glasses,
My hearing has returned to somewhere near normal, and best of all the prostrate problems I had, which the doctors told me would need urgent surgery, followed by radiation and chemotherapy, all the problems have now miraculously disappeared like mist in the morning sun light.
I am living proof that the healing power of the Bioptron light is truly miraculous.

I am a widow of 62 years and have had Lupus for 40 of those years. The particular Lupus I have affects my face and head worst My face has for all this time been covered with large red patches which are always wet, raw and sometimes weep. I have used many creams, and seen doctors and specialists - all to no avail. Naturally, this has also severely affected my self-esteem and entire well-being. In addition, I am a beneficiary and unable to afford the ongoing costs of doctors’ bills and medication.
In November of last year I was diagnosed with Glaucoma and told my vision would continue to deteriorate and I could expect to have an operation on my eyes in the very near future. My brain cells would also slowly die. I was devastated.
On April 9th you began treating me with the Bioptron Light, working on all the facial patches and the glaucoma. Apart from the week over Easter and the weekends, you have treated me daily.
I am most happy to say that after these three weeks, I am able to touch my face for the first time in 40 years. I just love the feel of my skin. I also am happy to look in the mirror, often. I have skin where before I only had raw open patches. Where the contour of my face was uneven I am rebuilt and the overall size of the patches has decreased.
After being diagnosed with glaucoma, 46% pressure in one eye and 42 % in the other I was prescribed two different forms of eyedrops, Xalathan and Timoptol, by my specialist. At my three-month checkup in February using only the eyedrops, the pressure had dropped to 37% and 25%.
After using the Bioptron Light from 9 April my checkup on 3 May showed a drop in pressure to 11% and 9%. That operation is off in the distance now. I am also noticing my driving night vision is very much improved In addition, I seem to have lots more energy, and better quality sleep.
just wanted to share this with you in the hope that others may have the courage to try out this effective, harmless treatment.

In 1997 I went to our G.P. to have my right lower eyelid looked at, it was very inflamed, our doctor explained that I had an ingrown eyelash. Our doctor then promptly operated on the inside of the eyelid to remove the offending material.
The small but very painful operation wasn't what the doctor had ordered. and so over time, I learned to live with eyelashes that seemed to want to grow inwards, that gave me constant eyeball irritation and vision problems.
I eventually made an appointment with an eye specialist who remarked on my excellent vision and explained the irritation as an overactive oil gland in the eyelid trying to deal with an infection.
The remedy was a hot cloth and baby shampoo for cleaning, and there was a high possibility that the infection could grumble away forever and that I must keep up with the treatment.
He was right and I put up with this until recently when I discovered the Bioptron light from Jan and Graham Inger.
After one 4-minute session on the right eye, there was instant relief so I purchased the light.
After one 4-minute session on the right eye, there was instant relief so I purchased the light.
The recommendation for treatment on my eyes is for another two weeks to be sure of complete healing due to the longevity of the problem.
Since the Bioptron has been in our household the complete family is on to it, including my six and eight year olds, the use of the light is very simple and is permanently setup making it a first choice for everyone.

A friend recommended that I start coming for Bioptron treatments for a painful scar which I had from an operation on my submandibular salivary gland The scar was very tight and painful. I had the operation about 5 months earlier. Because I'm also diabetic and on insulin pills, which I started taking about 4 years ago, and I had problems with my eyes getting tired and sore quite often, I decided to try Bioptron out on these complaints as well.
I had the treatments about 3- times a week, with the Bioptron 2 and the colour therapy. At the same time I was taking Heel homeopathic drops for my diabetes. With the insulin pills my sugar levels were about 12. After about 3 weeks of using the homeopathic drops, and light therapy, together with the same amount of pills as before, my blood sugar levels dropped from 12 down to 6 and have remained there.
My eyes no longer get tired or sore and my scar is no longer tight or painful. Because the light has helped me with my health problems I have decided to keep coming for regular treatments. I would like to recommend to anyone with similar complaints to definitely give the Bioptron a go.

I was diagnosed four years ago as having fibromyalgia (inflammation of the muscles, tendons and ligaments) and on reflection had probably suffered from it for almost twenty years. As a result of fibromyalgia becoming more severe, I had to resign from my position as stock manager on a beef breeding farm.
At the end of 2010, I was introduced to Graham O'Gorman who was in our area treating people with his light. I must admit that initially, I was rather skeptical that this therapy was going to help my health in any way but was willing to try anything to get back some form of normality in my life. After the first four days, my daughter’s dermatitis on her hands had cleared which made me realise we were maybe on to something useful.
At just past the three-week mark I began to realise how much better I was feeling. It took till the end of the fourth week (I carried on with the program one week longer as it was a long-standing illness) for me to feel basically no pain. I also had a lot clearer facial skin and my hands, which normally feel rougher than the coarsest sandpaper, were now smooth. I had also been having some significant premenopausal problems which cleared completely.
My 23-year-old son, Nathan, who had bilateral renal reflux when he was born and had a nephrectomy when he was 18 months old also saw Graham at the same time and had his remaining kidney treated as this had been damaged and is only approximately 20 percent functional. Nathan saw his Nephrologists for his yearly check-up in February and his kidney function had improved and was the best it has been in 8 years.
Graham also treated our 11 year old English Setter who has a tumour on his hind leg and testicular cancer. Graham treated both areas plus the brachial chakra. At the end of the treatment, both the tumour and the scrotum had lost the ugly purple colour. The dog also became a lot more livelier.
I have used the light on my partner’s knee that was scanned 2 years ago and showed running our own business that was not an option at the time. After using the light on the knee for only 4 days the pain had diminished and he was able to sleep all night. Considering he is driving large trucks for on average 10 to12 hours a day this was an amazing result.
I hope more people become aware of the capabilities of the Bioptron light and enjoy the benefits as my family has done. I thank you for providing this marvelous product for which we are eternally grateful for.

Feb 14 2017 I fell off a 10m cliff onto schist boulders and broke my PELVIS in OVER 100 places. Snapped my arm off at shoulder. Snapped Fibula just below knee. Snapped 10 bones in my left foot. Snapped 9 Ribs in 20 places. Collapsed Lung and Liver.
Doctors said 3-6 months stay in hospital.
My COMPACT 3 Bioptron was delivered on the 4th day just as I got out of INTENSIVE CARE to Cardiac Unit.
After surgeries and many BIOPTRON treatments I was on my feet in 3 WEEKS!
140 BREAKS IN BONES and MASSIVE LUNG and LIVER TRAUMA.
I was OUT of hospital in 28 DAYS!
Doctors and nurses (and everyone that knows me) were BLOWN AWAY at RECOVERY RATE.
Thank you Bioptron and Zepter.

A polo player's wife fell down an embankment and badly broke her ankle. It was encased in plaster to hold it while they waited for the swelling to go down before doing an MRI. She reacted badly to the painkillers and stopped taking them. I saw her 4 days after the accident and, with a very sceptical audience, played the purple over the plaster. After about 10 minutes she said it felt like ants running over her leg, and then (in great astonishment) declared it had stopped throbbing. She used the purple every day until her hospital visit and had no pain during that time.

In July 2000 I fell down a few stairs at my home and wrenched my foot. After a few days, I went to my doctor who thought I had sprained it and sent me off to physio. After some time with no relief from pain, I had my foot x-rayed. The result was swollen soft tissue. The pain went on for months with no relief at all. My doctor sent me again for X-rays. This time they showed the 5th Metatarsal had been fractured and the swelling had lessened. Still in great pain, I tried Acupuncture for a few weeks, still with no real relief - then a breakthrough. I saw the Auckland ZOO programme featuring Kashin, the elephant with her ulcerated feet.
After lots of enquiries, I found that a Beauty Clinic here used the Bioptron. I contacted the operator and have used the Machine 5 days a week since March 1st 2001. I am truly amazed at the pain relief I've had already. The fracture has healed, swelling has gone down and the heat has been lessened. I will continue to use the Machine as long as it takes. I just wish I could afford one to buy, but that's out of the question, being on a pension and in my seventies.
I am so grateful for the help I've had from Donna Summerell at "Planet Skin", and to your firm for making the machine available. I am singing your praises loud and clear to anyone who asks how can I manage without my crutch (which I had to use to get around) and I am handing out your Bioptron brochure to them.

While visiting in hospital, a young man was in a wheelchair with his leg heavily bandaged from below the knee to his toes. He told me the weight from a forklift truck had fallen on his foot, crushing it. He had already had 6 operations on it to repair all the bones, but they had had to remove a toe because of gangrene and he risked losing his whole foot because of it.
He was not able to take strong painkillers and the pain and throbbing prevented him from sleeping properly. I just happened to have my light and colours on me.............
I used purple and after a few minutes he exclaimed that it felt like ants running around under the bandage. While I was using the orange on his foot (bones) he suddenly gasped and said "It's not throbbing any more!" He started yawning his head off, saying how tired he was. I sent him away to sleep pain-free.

In February my son fell out of a tree hut at least 9 feet above the ground. Being summer the ground was hard and he landed on his head and elbow. The lump on his head extended out beyond his ear and his radius was fractured and the growth plates on his elbow moved. His elbow was also very swollen.
I treated his head in 3 locations for 4 minutes at a time with the Bioptron Compact. As I did the treatment the swelling subsided until all that remained was a 3 inch red line. His headache also went away.
I used the purple light on the elbow - again in 3 locations for 4 minutes, and watched as about 70% of the swelling subsided. The whole area turned dark purple as the deep bruising was brought to the surface and my son said that the pain reduced almost immediately, though it was still a "bit sore".
Four days later the elbow was yellow and a week later another x-ray showed that the elbow was fine, the fracture was knitting well. Neither the head or elbow has given him any bother since and I can definitely attribute the rapid healing and lack of pain and discomfort to the Bioptron.

Rider got hit on the hand, great pain. Bioptron Purple for several minutes (I usually find 8 minutes is best and when the pain recedes). Much better - no pain. later found to have 2 fractured fingers. Had his own Bioptron so used orange, purple and Bioptron. Played the next weekend.

I had a scaphoid fracture in my wrist following a motorbike accident during which I landed quite badly on one hand. After consulting a specialist and having X-rays, I was told that there was a strong possibility for the necessity of surgery to realign the two pieces of the scaphoid bone and prevent further complications. I started coming for Bioptron light and colour therapy seven weeks after the accident. At first, I had treatments three times a week for one month, then I had weekly treatments for another 2 months. After this time I went for another X-ray, as the specialist had recommended, and there was complete fusion of the scaphoid eliminating the need for surgery.
I suffered from disturbed sleep for a number of years, if something woke me up during the night I had difficulty going back to sleep and I would toss and turn during the night quite a bit. I was having light and colour treatment during the same time as for my wrist and found that I could go to sleep much easier and I slept much deeper and calmer.
I would sincerely recommend the Bioptron light therapy to anyone with similar problems.

I used purple, orange and Bioptron on Eric Rush (All Black, and captain of the All Black Sevens) for broken bones in his leg he got when playing rugby. He had a bone graft and the surgeon said he would be lucky if he was jogging in 4 months. By 6 weeks he was back on the bike and in the pool and had no pain the whole time.
In turn, he passed the set on to his grandfather whose foot was turning black from lack of circulation due to diabetes. He lived in the Far North, not near the hospital, and used the purple every day. His foot returned to normal. Eric's mother also used it to ease her asthma (orange on her lungs).
Myself I use a Bioptron B2 4 min each side of head and until regrowth occures (9 days in my case)
I also used 1 minute of orange on each kidney, left then right.
On a patient I treated for Melanoma (multiple, advanced) that were on the head (scalp). I treated with 1 minute red with Bioptron Pro1 and 1 minute green on scalp and 4 rounds of 2 minutes around head, front to back, left then right.
This man had been bald for 40 years and he had significant regrowth of hair after 2 weeks.
On another I used red and purple 1 minute each as above, then 4 minutes front to back. Great regrowth after 3 weeks. Treated once per week

A young lady in the village boulangerie where I lived had an operation on her hand for carpel tunnel syndrome. The scar was at the base of her palm just by her wrist. She was having pins and needles and it was pulling. I felt it; the scarring was quite wide and dense. I went back with my light and colours; put the red on it for 2 minutes, then the purple for 4 mins. Then massaged the area a bit. She felt better immediately.
I went back one more time but it hardly needed it. The scarring feels minimal and she is using her hand normally. She is very happy; me too - they slip me free croissants and pains au chocolat regularly..

You may be interested to read of my positive experience of your company's BIOPTRON light therapy in a wound—healing application. I wish to be thorough about this so this letter is quite lengthy and some details may read unpleasantly for some.
There are many modern therapies offered today and I am always sceptical and cautious about many of the claims made for them. However, I must say that BIOPTRON has just won my belief and confidence very convincingly. Here's why: [Do not read this description if you are squeamish. Go straight to the conclusion]
Just ten days before writing this I suffered a severe injury to my left index finger. Whilst assembling a commercial display of high—class kitchen knives I managed, during a moment of inattention, to drive the large prong of carving fork fully through my finger.
The prong entered the side of the finger adjacent to the thumb at the top knuckle, glanced off the bone and came out through the centre of the fingertip. My hand was thus impaled on the fork which was fixed to the display. I did further damage by instinctivelyn trying to pull my hand away quickly on feeling the pain. After carefully slipping my finger free I immediately applied first aid by way of antisepsis, ice and pressure. I managed to stop the profuse bleeding after about 20 minutes and secured the wound with an appropriate dressing. The emergency clinic could do little to help as the wound was un-stitchable.
That evening I used a borrowed Bioptron light on the wound. Not because I felt any conviction that it would help but more because it seemed harmless and I had nothing to lose anyway. The first thing I noticed after the treatment was the relief from stinging and pain. That certainly appealed to me!
I used the Bioptron twice daily after that and can only express my astonishment at the speed at which my wounded finger healed.
By the end of day three the swelling and tenderness was notice—ably reduced. By the end of day four the exit wound was fully closed and healing well. I had the dressing off for day five and the entry wound had almost closed. Tenderness was bearable and I had almost full flexing of the finger again. The healing continued noticeably on day six and I was aware of only minor discomfort.
At the end of day seven I could only marvel that the entry and exit wounds were healed to the point where I could use my hand almost normally. There was no significant internal swelling or intolerable tenderness.
I found it hard to believe that only seven days previously I had had the prong of a carving fork right through my finger causing a very distressing wound that I had expected to be two or three weeks in healing with all the attendant discomfort.
I continued using the Bioptron for another few days but only to consolidate the healing because in fact on day eight I had virtually forgotten the injury, so well had it healed! Really all that remained was a line of roughish skin along what had been the torn entry wound, and minor soreness if I happened to knock it or press too hard. Quite tolerable. There were no internal lumps of tissue. I had full use of my finger!
It should also be noted that there had never been the slightest sign of infection in my stabbed finger. Also I had used no other treatment, only the Bioptron light and the Oxy Spray which I used generously before and after each treatment.
It would be difficult to place a value on the tremendous sense of relief I feel at having gotten over a major wound to my finger with so little discomfort and incovenience. My thoughts at the time of the accident were of all sorts of dire consequences. But by using BIOPTRON light therapy I had accomplished the healing of a very nasty wound in about half of the time I would normally have expected — and without most of the usual pain and discomfort.
I said I wished to be thorough so I would like it noted that there was nothing psychosomatic about the healing because I had started using the BIOPTRON light without feeling confident that it was going to work. I was open-minded.
But there is something that perhaps made me and may make others sceptical about BIOPTRON. It is that on first seeing or using the device it looks merely a yellow light. It's hard to imagine that anything is happening within one’s flesh. But from my recent positive experience with the use of the light, as just described, it becomes obvious that there must very definitely be something happening within the tissue and cell structure exposed to the light. This would be in keeping with the biological explanation as described in the BIOPTRON handbook. And as far as I'm concerned it's all good! Thank you Zepter and Bioptron.
You may use this letter or relevant excerpts, unaltered, as a testimonial to the remarkable healing effects of the BIOPTRON light in the treatment of wounds. And it seems reasonable to expect that the Bioptron would also be very effective in the treatment of other conditions as described in the handbook.

The little daughter of a woman whose horse I was massaging attempted to give some grain to the horse tied up near us. It grabbed her thumb instead causing piercing wails. I had the light in the car and used the purple, for about 10 minutes and until she stopped crying. The mother told me later that she wanted to show the child's grandmother the damage and couldn't pick which thumb it was.

One of the grooms where I was working was quite severely bitten on the arm. After using the purple light she had no more pain.
This same groom had a dermatitis reaction to a cleaning fluid, causing red, inflamed and itchy hands. She used the blue light and then the Bioptron and the irritation went away.

Another day, I was feeding a slice of hay to a greedy horse and he reached across to grab it. Somehow a tooth sliced deeply into the ball of my thumb causing a V flap to open up. A few days of Bioptron and I had nothing to show for it!

I had a severe injury on my left index finger. The emergency clinic could do little to help, as the wound was unstitchable. I used the Bioptron light because it seemed harmless.
Day 1 and 2: - Relief from stinging and pain Day 3: - Swelling and tenderness reduced Day 4: - Exit wound was fully closed Day 5: - The dressing was taken off and the entry wound was almost closed. Day 6: - Only minor discomfort
I used Bioptron twice daily and was astonished at the speed at which my wounded finger healed.

Over the last few years, I have suffered with a Trigger Thumb on my right hand. With all the pain I was having every time I tried to do anything I ended up being sent to a specialist by my doctor, who gave my thumb a cortisone injection. As a very keen gardener I found it difficult to rest this for six weeks as advised. After I required a second cortisone injection a year later, the specialist informed me the next thing would be an operation.
On top of this, my left hand was giving me jip at the base of the thumb and wrist. I was sent to the "Hands On Team". After Xrays, 10 x sessions of treatment, two types of splints and wrist bands, doing the homework they had given me of soaking my hand in hot water then rubbing anti-flamme on and resting it, I was informed it was tendonitis and there was nothing more they could do for me.
Then my luck was to meet Marcella who introduced me to the Bioptron Light. She was very kind and let me use her light for a week to see if this helped with the path. I was blown away with the Bioptron Light and what it could do for me. So that was it, I just had to have one of these lights.
I have never looked back, and have used the Bioptron Light on healing and improving my well being. I would never be with out it.

When I first met you I was very crippled with a painful left hip and knee and there you were with your wonderful Bioptron light.
Since the very first treatment I was able to sleep without being woken up with extreme pain in fact I had the best night's sleep that I have had in years.
I have used the light for headaches, sore throats and for strain injuries with instant results.
It is so good to know that it is there so that we have instant treatment for these things.
I will never regret buying this wonderful light.

I would like to tell you about my experience with one of your Bioptron Lamps.
I had a total right hip replacement at the end of May 2000. I was In a lot of pain from my right shoulder right down to my little toe. The scar was not healing as I thought it should be. I happened to mention this to a neighbour and she immediately offered to give me some treatment with her Bloptron lamp.
During the first two weeks of treatment, twice daily. I had this "zing feeling of wellbeing which I had not had for a long time, having had my back broken in an accident late 1990.
My right leg was very swollen, tight and sore after the hip replacement. The hospital did a scan, looking for a clot. but found none. Within three weeks of treatment my leg had gone down to normal size and I felt much more comfortable, however Maureen continued with the treatment for another weak, twice daily, then went onto once a day for another three weeks. I then went on holiday for three weeks with no treatments. The scar healing is now linking together nicely and I am having one treatment per week.
I am known as a slow healer because of other operations and I really appreciate what Maureen and your lamp have done for me. I have read all your literature and know what your lamp Is capable of achieving am now free of all pain and would have no hesitation in recommending It to anyone for whatever purpose.

I have been using the Bioptron Light for about a year now.
I was born with a congentital right hip and had a total hip replacement at age 34 in March of this year. I have been suffering from this complaint all my life and have tried several conventional treatments as well as having operations since birth. Before the operation I was in constant pain especially in colder weather and had very limited movement which as a result I occasionally had to use a crutch.
As part of my treatment at the Spine & Body Clinic I was using the Bioptron Light on my hip area regularly and was amazed at the results. It was more effective than the anti• inflammatory and painkillers prescribed by my GP. I had less pain, more movement, and more mobility the next day after my treatments. I found it so effective that 1 purchased one myself to use at home and I believe it aided in my quick recovery after the operation. I still use if for pain I get in my knee and for helping reduce my scar tissue.
I thoroughly recommend the use of the Bioptron Light for other people with medical complaints similar to mine.

We had expressed to our friend Hermione how after both turning 50 we observed that with health issues our bodies weren’t bouncing back as quickly as before. She then demonstrated the benefits of Bioptron Light Therapy and we immediately drove to Auckland to purchase a light.
Since November 2008 we have been enjoying using our light daily as a great energy boost. We have followed the colour therapy schedules with excellent results. We are both Aries and usually find daily routines challenging but have noticed the regular discipline of the light is so easy and enjoyable. The process has aided our other health disciplines.
The Discharging and Purging Program was not only effective physically but we also noted some long-term personal emotional relationship issues arose and we could flush them out.
Sam had been dealing with a fungal infection in his toenail for nearly ten years, he spent more than the Bioptron Light cost as well as nearly poisoning him with Lamasil a very nasty drug. Regular Treatment with Bioptron Light has kept the infection in check and is looking much improved.
Christine had small pre-cancer flaky skin spots on her face which an over enthusiastic Doctor had tried to burn off resulting in an indent scar on her nose that was unsightly and when the growth returned as they inevitably do, it looked even worse. 3-4 weeks of Oxy Spray, Bioptron Light and the Multi-generating cream and not only had the growth gone but the tissue regenerated returning her nose to original condition. Now one year later no further growth has occurred.
We were so impressed with our various responses with the light we decided to become full time agents and have Bioptron Light Therapy as part of our massage treatments.

Our daughter, Hineraukatauri, has severe cerebral palsy. She is unable to walk or talk, is tube fed by a machine directly into her stomach, has spasticity in all four limbs, suffers seizures, and has other very complex medical needs.
Throughout her eight years of life, Hineraukatauri has had many emergency admissions to Starship Children's Hospital to be treated for chest infections and pneumonia, particularly during the winter months.
Lee began Bioptron light treatment with Hineraukatauri several months ago and we have seen a great improvement in her general wellbeing. So far this year, she has had no unexpected admissions to hospital, only routine outpatient clinics and surgical visits. We firmly believe this is due to our daughter receiving regular light treatment and are so convinced of the benefits of this therapy; we have purchased our own Bioptron light for home use.
The treatment is painless and indeed, very relaxing. It assists with improving the immune system and has a comprehensive range of other health benefits.
We are very grateful to Lee for introducing us to this wonderful therapy and will continue to use the lights as a daily treatment for our daughter and the rest of the family.

One of two high-profile babies battling the deadly meningococcal disease is on the mend and her parents are using alternative therapies to speed her recovery.
Eight-month-old Charlotte Cleverley-Bisman has not needed more amputations since losing her lower arms and legs last week. She returns to surgery tomorrow - the day New Zealand's biggest vaccination programme is launched to try to beat the disease - only to have her dressings changed.
The Waiheke Island girl's father, Perry Bisman, said while the family was sceptical about alternative therapies - and anxious not to be seen as "whackos" - it was willing to try anything.
The therapies being used include supplements such as colostrum being fed through a hospital drip, Bioptron Colour Therapy and spiritual healing.
The Bioptron Colour therapy uses coloured filters to radiate the body with a colour matched to a particular disease in a bid to stimulate cell growth to fight the disease.

The disease Ankylosing Spondylitis does often start with a virus of some kind. I can't be entirely sure, but I think while in Australia I contracted something similar to Dengue fever (mosquito virus). And then shortly after that, all the joint problems started.
It is very interesting that you should bring the point up of using the light on the palms of my hands. Before your letter arrived, I had started doing that, as I had thought it had worked well on the soles of my feet for all parts of my body. So as a long shot, I started to do so. I just feel on top of the world now. My life has certainly changed. And maybe I won't be so sceptical in the future. I used to have a problem with my bingeing food, and then starving. Now it seems to be so much more levelled out. I don't crave for things as much. My regular blood tests etc have really bounded ahead. I'm not so anaemic now, although I am still pretty pale. I think I will always be that way. But it's what's happening on the inside that I'm so happy about. My skin and hair are so much healthier also. Just a brighter outlook on life entirely.
My father just recently had a bowel operation. It was a bit worrying there for a while, about what they would find. But all is well, and it was just a growth of some sort, but quite safe. It has made him realise that life can go 'just like that'. So he is looking after himself a lot more now with diet and exercise. I have been using the light on him as well. On his Thymus and Pineal. And have started on his hands. I think he is a lot brighter now. Not such a grump either!

In April 2010 I broke my Patella Ligament in my left knee in an accident. Some 20 years earlier I had broken the arterial cruciate ligament in the same knee and had a repair using tissue from the patellar ligament, which took me many months to recover from. The surgeon who undertook the emergency repair for the patella was not optimistic about a full recovery since my knee was in poor shape and I had completely "shattered" the ligament. He warned me to prepare myself for having a long and painful recovery, to at best restore the knee to about 80% of what I previously had.
After the surgery, I was fortunate enough to use one of Marcella Popplewell's Bioptron Lights on an ongoing basis. After six weeks of my leg being immobilised the surgeon was astonished at the progress I had made and the amount of mobilisation I had in the knee. I continued with the light and started a period of Physio. In just 7 months I was in surgery again to have the support wire removed from my knee the result of the repair being fully successful at a period of at least half that of the normal patient recovery period.
I would encourage anyone to try the Bioptron for themselves. It is not an instant fix by any means but it appears that with continued regular treatment it can have a remarkable effect and make a tremendous difference to both the length of recovery and the extent of the recovery.

Rachel Harris of Reperoa was treated for four consecutive days (15-18 March) with Bioptron Light Therapy at the Horse of the Year Show in Hastings.
She received Bioptron Light Therapy Treatment on her stomach scar, knees, right foot and face. Each area was exposed to the therapy for 10 minutes.
After serious injuries sustained from a car accident by the end of each treatment Rachel remarked on how much her knee joints and heel pain were significantly reduced and she felt an overall sense of well-being.
It is recommended that the Bioptron Pro (11cm diameter) be used, given the extent and serious nature of Rachel’s injuries.
Bioptron Light Therapy medical devices have proven medical efficacy in treatment of wounds, pain conditions with a significantly shorter healing times. Developed and produced by Biptron AG in Switzerland, Bioptron Light Therapy devices have been used by medical professionals in hospitals and private surgeries as well as by home users and patients themselves world wide.
A horse trainer, Morris is always talking about Bioptron Light and Colour Therapy. His success with colour treatment has earned him a reputation amongst his fellow horse trainers and breeders.
Recently he was visited by a 73-year-old horse breeder and farmer, who was struggling with immense pain and swelling in a knee operated on for the replacement of joint. He had been asking around the local trainers for a pain killer normally administrated to horses but not available in NZ.
Our friend Morris sees the opportunity and the next thing he was been treated to colour therapy treatment followed by full treatment with Pro. The result was spectacular. He could now bend and raise his knee above his waist
It turned out that Ian was to be a new client with a special mission in mind. Ian is an opera fan and was due to fly out within days for a Tour of Europe’s famous operas. The thought of 24 hours travel without the assistance of Bioptron Light and Colour Therapy was a compelling reason to purchase the Light and Colour Therapy System.
He is very keen on Pavaroti and did not want to anything get in the road of his pleasure.

I fell from my horse and returned home with a hugely swollen and painful knee that would not bend... Bioptron Light Therapy resulted in much reduced swelling and pain within the hour and I was able to continue with moderate farm work the next day - and get a good nights sleep....,the list of amazing results after Bioptron treatment goes on and on. I would not be without my unit now!!!!

In the Cross Country phase, my horse tripped on the top of a Jump and fell on landing
We were told about the Bioptron Light Therapy treatment by someone who had a similar accident.
After my first treatment with the Bioptron Light the swelling in my ankle had been significantly reduced and movement had become possible. I was even able to put my weight on it which was not possible before the treatment.
I would strongly recommend it to anyone !!!! It really works!!!

I got kicked square on my thigh on Thursday afternoon as I was putting a cover on a flighty mare in high winds without haltering her. I attempted to grab the hind strap flapping around in the wind. I had just got hold of it when she moved, pulling it out of my hand. It snapped back and hit her, and she jumped away, kicking out. My leg immediately went excruciatingly numb: fortunately, she didn't have shoes on!
I managed to finish putting the cover on and she stood like a rock while I whimpered and moaned, as if she knew she'd done something wrong and then followed me as I hobbled back to the fence, hanging over my shoulder in apology. I could barely get up into the Kubota and drive back up the hill to my car and drive straight home to my Bioptron! I used a lot of purple and my Pro/Fullerene.
The next day my leg felt like it was encased in concrete and I couldn't bend it without extreme pain. On Saturday it felt like I had a very tight bandage on; I was using the light twice daily.
On Sunday I was walking normally - as long as nothing touched the area. Within a week I'd almost forgotten it was there (unless I knocked on the area). There is nothing to see except the faint outline of the hoof. Bioptron didn't allow the bruising to coagulate so it's very disappointing I've got nothing to show for all that pain - but once again, Bioptron to the rescue!

In the middle of August I had anterior cruciate ligament replacement operation on my right knee. As I only found out about Zepter's light therapy midway through September that is the time when my treatments have started.
I have been attending treatments daily for about 8 weeks. Each treatment took approximately half an hour. It is important to note that this therapy should be performed every day to achieve the best results.
At the beginning of the therapy my knee was still puffed up and swollen from the operation and I was experiencing some pain. After less then a week of attending Zepter light therapy treatments I have noticed a considerable decrease in the swelling and the absence of pain. As the therapy went on my knee gradually improved and I noticed a considerable improvement in the scarring tissue.
I found that Boiptron polarised light therapy had no side effects. In addition I was able to follow my physical rehabilitation in conjunction with the therapy.
I would like to express my gratitude for your help and supervision during my treatment. Thanks again and all the best for the future.

5 November 2000 In January of this year I purchased a Bioptron Compact with Colour and received marvellous results on myself in a short time.
However, the most exciting treatments and which have made an exceptional difference to a dearly loved person are those that I did to improve my Dad's health. He has been suffering from emphysema for several years, slowly deteriorating in health and wellbeing from this debilitating disease.
He began using the light every day on his lungs, treating the front and back with the "white" light; and using the indigo light on the energy field across the lung area for 4 minutes front and back. In addition to this treatment I had Dad on the "Deblocking to relieve Stress" program which has helped so much to alleviate his anxiety levels.
He also suffered from fluid retention with swelling in the legs and feet, so has also used the "Heavy Legs" program. The results from this were amazing as the first time we did the program all the fluid dispersed and the swelling went down in half an hour.
The Stress program was done in the morning and the Heavy Legs done in the evening.
Overall his breathing has improved 60% - 80%, his immune system seems much stronger and he is more positive and happier in himself. He loves using the light, as he feels better afterwards so he treats himself several times a day.

I was recently in Waikato hospital with Pneumonia and when I came home, I was still very ill and felt I could not go on. I also suffer from Eczema and the extreme heat was affecting it very badly.
A neighbour told Corinne how sick I was so she came to me with her Bioptron Light.
From that day onward I started to become well again and Corinne used it on my chest for a week and cleared up the Pneumonia. Since then she has also used it on my Eczema again with great effect.
I cannot thank her enough for the wonderful use of the Bioptron Light and the fact that I now have a clearance from the Waikato Hospital as of the 10/2/05.
I only wish that more people knew about Bioptron Light.

I used both the small colour lamp and the large lamp for about 10 years. Favour the colour lamp.
For my husband:
Dec 2006 My husband had the flu which must have developed pneumonia. The doctor did not give any medication but sent him to the hospital where 1 and a half liters were drained from the lung.
4 days in hospital and 1 and a half litres drained from the lung again. No medication. Medical opinion: cancer in the lung - if not asbestosis.During this time I used red on the lamp and gave him colloidal silver
Feb 2007 Thoracotomy A.P.C No sign of cancer, asbestosis or TB But drained off a lot of thick fluid - he had a collapsed lung which was inflated again. Still no antibiotic courses, but the wound was clean and not as painful as the other patients.
After 7 days in the hospital, he returned straight to work (cared for the wound with the red lamp). As well as healing, the lamp gave him the energy for all he had to do and helped him when he came home exhausted. No complications. The wound healed in record time. Otherwise, he should have convalescence for 2 weeks before returning to work.

I came to the salon with a diagnosed lupus that had been unsuccessfully treated by classical medicine for 3 years. I received the light therapy three times a week in the duration of 10 minutes with the Bioptron Light in conjunction with the Oxy-Spray. Already after 5-6 treatments the redness of the skin around the eyes and only hyper-pigmented skin remained, which is healed at a slower rate. The patches of red skin, hyper- pigmented skin and any skin without pigment in the treated zones had started to regain the colour of the surrounding skin. Aside from the skin getting better, I felt my psychological state of mind change for the better as a result of the light therapy. in the sense that I was in a better mood, more confident, and after such a long time I had the wish to persevere with continuing the treatment because I noticed the results in a very short time frame.
I would sincerely recommend this type of therapy to anyone with similar problems.

After suffering for 12 years from sinus infections as a result of allergies brought on by summer pollens and grasses, and then winter damp, dust, mites and mould, I can now finally enjoy seasons free from pain and misery.
Little did I know how "badly" my condition affected my day-to-day enjoyment of life. I can now enjoy the garden, lay on the lawn, walk the lake’s edge, have potted plants in the house, and feather/down duvets on the bed without fear of allergies that would result in sinus infection.
"The Power of Resistance" program in March 2005 followed by hiring your lamp in June/July 2005 and the Compact III in September/October 2005 has changed my life. I am now free from all allergy & sinus symptoms, something traditional medicine failed to achieve.
Rachel, you were a wonderful practitioner of Bioptron Light and I can not thank you enough. Your ability to relate to my discomfort, your empathy and continuing support throughout the treatment was invaluable.
I will be forever grateful. Thank You.

In March 2003 I was admitted into hospital with the cause of pain unknown. After hours of being in the Emergency Dept, I had been booked in to have a scan as the hospital staff suspected an Ectopic pregnancy. They said I needed to have emergency surgery as I was also bleeding internally. After waking from my surgery, I was told that it was not an Ectopic pregnancy but a ruptured cyst on my ovary which was causing the internal bleeding. It took me some time to fully recover and in fact months later I was still experiencing pain and could not understand why. After trialling a number of options from painkillers to changing my contraceptive pill, and after talking to other people, it appeared from my symptoms that there was a possibility that I could have Endometriosis. After seeing my specialist a number of times, in September 2003 it was decided that I would have a Laporoscopy, this was exploratory surgery to see exactly what was happening for me internally and also to see if there were any signs of leftover scar tissue from my previous surgery in March. After the laparoscopy, it was discovered that I indeed did have Endometriosis on the lining of my uterus and it was removed during the surgery. Once again it took a while to recover and trialling of options. My dose of contraceptive pill was increased as I was experiencing breakthrough bleeding when I wasn't menstruating and my monthly menstruation was painful.
It was a very difficult time for both me and my husband and in fact our whole family. I felt like I had spent the whole year in pain and it had affected me in a lot of areas of my life and the relationships I had with my family. The other difficult thing was that because the pain was internal, no one could see anything and I felt like people didn't understand what I was going through, and I'm sure people got sick of me always being in pain! Being in pain affected me in that I was always grumpy, I was sick and tired of being in pain and generally didn't have the energy to do anything or even contribute to housework or cooking. I was very grateful and blessed that I had the support of my husband throughout that challenging time.
In May 2004, my husband was a stall holder at the Women's Lifestyle Expo here in light. He went to talk to Cynthia and he explained what I had been experiencing and made a time for her to come to our home for a demonstration. It just so happened that on the night that Cynthia came, I was in a lot of pain and very uncomfortable. Cynthia did a schedule on me with the lights and within minutes the pain had reduced, it was amazing. I had been backwards and forwards to my specialist and I was informed of some other options in the hope of stopping the pain. A couple of those options were 1 ) to go onto a Hormone pill, which had a number of possible side effects that were not desirable and 2) to have a Hystorectomy, which was not a favourable option for me. So when Cynthia came to us, we saw the Bioptron light as an alternative to having those options. My husband and I discussed the possibility of purchasing a Bioptron light as a solution to ending the way I had been living. The bonus was that it would not only be me that would benefit from using the Bioptron but we could use it for the whole family. It has been well worth the investment and has made a huge difference to my quality of life, it was truly a blessing! In previous months I have used the Bioptron light during menstruation to ease the cramps and can honestly say that I have not had a need to use the light for a few months. I can't express how much of a difference it has made to my daily life, and indeed to my husband and family! I would strongly recommend the Bioptron light as an alternative treatment!

I have used the Bioptron Light Therapy in my clinic for six years. It has benefited my clinic, myself and my family in many ways. My patients cannot believe what amazing results they get after even just 1-4 treatments:
Along with helping patients in a variety of ways, and it is a passive income for me. The Bioptron is my personal "go to" when I injure myself or simply feel a bit under the weather and need a immune boost.
I highly recommend every person/practitioner investing in one, as I know I would not be without mine EVER!

The owners were worried that the mare would not stand still, but she quickly settled down, actually dozing off at times as I used the Pro. She began to recognise my car and happily accepted treatment. I treated her for 3 days and rested her for two. I repeated the 3 days on, and 2 days off once again. The improvement was already so dramatic that I reduced the treatments to 4 days per week, then to 3 days. The only treatment used all this time was Bioptron light and colour therapy. I was then able to stop treatments; however, the owners agreed to notify me if there was any reversal in the healing process, which in fact there was not. The developing of proud flesh had disappeared after 4 days. To add to her problems she limped heavily to one of her treatments. I diagnosed a stone bruise, and with colour and white light treatment, she was sound again in two days. All together it was a very satisfying result. The owners were amazed. I was confident that the wounds would be healed, but I did not expect such a dramatic result. She received only 13 treatments in the period from 15 Dec 2004 to 10 January 2005. Sometimes I look at the Bioptron and ask “How did you do that?” At times like this, it certainly seems to be a miracle worker!

A friend's horse had escaped from her paddock and got out onto the road where she was sideswiped by a car, knocking her down. No serious injuries, but when I saw her the next morning she had a swelling the size of a melon at the top of her leg and bruising on the shoulder and flank, where there was a piece of skin missing the size of an orange. I treated her and left the light with my friend. When I checked two days later, he said the swelling had gone down overnight, she didn't flinch when touched and he'd already put her back outside. He was very impressed.

A yearling filly had a bad wire cut on her leg. Possibly too-tight bandaging had created a "bow" of solid flesh about 25cm long. As it was weeks old, I used the red colour to help break it up, the purple to get the circulation going and the Bioptron to help the scarring. It took about 6 weeks of nearly daily sessions, but the bow receded greatly and the solid tissue became soft and malleable as it was reabsorbed into the body. It is not perfect with the thick scar, but the appearance of the leg is greatly improved.

Earlier this year, on 20.01.2020, an accident happened in Angel's stable and she was found with her leg stuck between the door in her box early in the morning. After freeing her leg, a large, horrific wound was revealed.
No one believed she would be able to get well again.
The leg was immediately operated and a week later additional proceedings were made at the Viik University Animal Hospital in Finland.
The wound was dressed for a week upon which the bandages were changed every three days. After 2 weeks all the bandages were removed and we started applying BIOPTRON light therapy on the pony's leg, twice a day for 10 minutes for 1 month. Afterwards the treatment time was reduced first to once per day for 10 minutes for a 3 months period and until today we have been providing hyperlight therapy treatment once every three days for 10 minutes.
Angel is now well and competing at Finnish dressage competitions with very good results. Out of 6 trials, she won one, came second twice and was in third place once.
The treatment with Bioptron had a huge impact on the recovery. Raija Lydecken states: "We are very happy with the Bioptron lamp because I am confident that the pony would not have recovered so fast without it and it is highly likely that it would never have recovered at all. It was such a horrific injury."

24 hours after weaning the foal a strong feverish Mastitis occurred on the left, with bluish-red medium sized swelling sensitive to touch, which, because of it’s painfulness showed a high level of limping and lameness.
Therapy: Lachesis D8 and treatment with BIOPTRON once or twice daily for 4 minutes duration.
Result: the following day the swelling and the pain vanished completely. The treatment was continued for two further days combined with several doses of Phellandrium D12.

December 2001 "Blazing" had a Sarcoid the size of a walnut on the side of his upper lip which had gradually grown bigger and the skin on the outside was erupting.
I was told the Bioptron Light would fix it so I bought a small one and use it every day for 8 minutes. It took a while to see any effects but by the end of just over 2 months the sarcoid had completely disappeared and there has been no sign ever since.

My seven-year-old Quarter Horse had a sarcoid as large as a 50-cent piece on the neck, a smaller one below it the size of a 5-cent piece, and a third one as big as a 1-cent piece in the centre of his chest.
After applying Bioptron Light and Colour Therapy, within a couple of days, there was a visible decrease in size.
They were quite a considerable amount smaller within a month, and hair had started to grow.
By a couple of months, all the sarcoids had healed.
I applied the Bioptron Light and Colour Therapy every other day.
I was not prepared to use any drugs and could not be happier to have used the Bioptron Light and Colour Therapy.

2 years ago approximately, our Stallion Larkspur Connoisseur had a serious paddock injury whereby he suffered deep injury to his shoulder.
Following this injury it has been a long arduous process to find a remedy to help the healing process of his injury.
Recently we met Mirjana who talked to us about some success horse owners had had using the Bioprtron Light Therapy on their horses. After having only minimal improvement with Connors injury from using previous therapies that were quite stressful to him we decided we would like to see how he reacted to this Light Therapy.
Firstly we were really amazed to see Connor himself choose the colours for use with the Light Therapy and then to see how he reacted with the treatment. He showed signs of complete relaxation and contentment, something Robin and I had not see since his accident. We are confident to continue using this therapy and are looking forward to some rewarding results.

I also treated another horse that had been kicked in the shoulder 3 weeks previously. It started draining freely and was looking good after being stuffed up with vet's creams and was very painful. The horse is enjoying not being touched, so the Bioptron is a huge plus as he would not stand still for hands-on treatment.
While there I noticed another horse had a sore eye (half-closed). I could see he'd put some sort of creme on it. He said he got it from the vet to 'fix' it without the problem being diagnosed but was happy for me to use Bioptron. She loved it, and by the time I'd used purple, green and the Bioptron, her eye was totally open again. I think she might have just speared it with a stalk of hay, watching how she shoved it around with her nose after I put her back in her box.

A two-year-old colt had a paddock accident 10 months before that left him with nerve damage in a shoulder. I used orange and yellow and the Bioptron nearly every day for about two weeks. After being observed galloping at full speed round his paddock, he is back in work.

After making a bad mistake and all but falling in the Hawkes Bay Hurdles the owner of Solid Still were told on Tuesday that his muscles were so sore it was unlikely he would be starting at Wellington.
Solid Still was worked on the lead from another horse and treated with Bioptron Colour Therapy after receiving instructions on the use of colours by Mirjana Arlov.
By Saturday Solid Still was much improved and after galloping on Tuesday it was decided that he would start at Wellington. He won by five lengths.
Famous German show-jumper Tjark Nagel treated his favorite horse Calando with the BIOPTRON Light. He had a split hoof coronet, which an operation kept refusing to heal. “For three months Calando was treated three times a day, for six minutes, after which he was as well as he had ever been,” comments Nagel’s wife on the recuperation process.

Following a nasty fall, a competition horse tore a muscle very badly above the stifle, which left a significant haematoma around the region. After about two weeks when it had been drained a number of times, and after the bleeding had ceased, the enlightened vet recommended Bioptron to assist with the breaking down of the clotted blood, having talked with me.
The owner used purple every day on the saucer-sized haematoma which the vet had said wouldn't heal for four-to-six months. The mare would doze while the light was on her and she was back in work in 5 weeks. The owner was beyond delighted as her show season was saved.

I got called to a horse 24 hours after he had become trapped under a fence after the post he was rubbing against gave way. He panicked as he was being cut free and ended up with a swollen eye and hock, two haematomas between his front legs, a split lip, a wood burn and puncture wounds in various places. I gave him and his owner the 4-minute Stress Release and used the purple all over and the Bioptron where I could see wounds.
When we let him go he walked away and started eating, which he hadn't done up until then. I went back the next morning and found his eye normal, the haematomas almost gone and the hock only slightly swollen. I repeated everything and he was very happy to stand and have it done. The next morning the owner called and said not to bother coming again; he was happy and moving freely.

I arrived at the Pukekohe trotting track half-a-hour after a pacer had tangled in her hopples and fallen in a race, then flipped over the low fence she attempted to jump with her hopples on while trying to get back to the stalls just beyond. She had abrasions all over her body, some deep, with a split top lip, bruising and swelling, and quite significant gouging down her neck where the pricker rein had ripped her skin as she attempted to get to her feet. The vet had simply put Vaseline on everything even though a couple of cuts on her shoulder looked quite bad. As I inspected her I also found a wide tear in her skin under her belly which the vet had missed, which opened and shut as she breathed.
The owner gave me permission to treat her and I went every day for 5 days, using the purple for bruising and swelling, green for possible infection and the Bioptron. She was bright and moved freely so I thought that was enough.
Three weeks later the owner phoned me and asked if I wanted to come to the track to see her do her first fast workout since the accident. She went back to work after 2 weeks. He was very impressed!

A yearling wrenched his hock, resulting in a lot of swelling and heat. He was already in 5 days when I was called. After the second treatment, there was no more heat.
The second was his mate, brought in for company and got cast in the box, panicked and badly tore the muscles of his hindquarter. He was in great pain.
The vet had said that both would take many weeks to heal and they should both remain in their boxes.
I used indigo, orange blue and Bioptron and within 3 days they were very restless and dying to get out, so we took them out to eat grass for a bit each day thereafter, even though the mate hobbled a bit.
After two weeks they were hard to hold, playing up on the end of the rope in their joy of being outside. We kept them in so I could treat them easily. The two were put back out in the paddock after being stable-bound for 3 weeks.
Time and again Bioptron heals in one-third the usual time, which is great for box-bound horses who hate being inside.

Result: After two days they started eating again.

My 14 year old daughter Lucy had an accident on a flight of stairs in which she dislocated her ankle. The joint was so painful and swollen that Lucy couldn't stand on that leg. Her doctor gave her an elastic bandage and a pair of crutches so that she would put no weight on the leg. Since the joint was still very painful we thought of the Bioptron light therapy which we had successfully used many times before this. The joint was treated for two days, twice daily for 10 minutes per treatment. After those two days Lucy could walk completely normally without the elastic bandage or the crutches. Once again we were convinced about the efficiency of the Bioptron light therapy.

On Thursday, in an accident while loading horses onto the horse float, I tore a ligament over the ankle bone and broke the tip of the tibia bone. On Friday, when I arrived at Taupo, I could not move my toes and I had significant swelling.
Immediately after Bioptron Light and Colour Therapy treatment, I could wiggle my toes with no pain. That night I continued to improve until I felt I could walk on it!
By Saturday morning I could wiggle and move the whole ankle without pain.

I Dennis met Fern a sales rep for Zepter NZ at a Field Day (still is a rep for Zepter) in about 2012 and they had a stand. I had pain in my middle finger joint that was paining me for many weeks I think it was arthritis. I took a seat told my story and was kindly advised by Fern that 2 minutes white light of the Compact Bioptron light should stop the pain. I thought this I must see so I said proceed. 2 minutes later the pain was gone, not reduced, but gone and remained gone for many weeks.
So I decided to buy a Compact Bioptron with all the colored lenses , and with many a positive results in 2015 we purchased the Big Pro 1 Bioptron light with all the colored lenses and very recently Feb 2020 purchased the new White lens Fullerene C 60 filter via Fern so I am a happy customer.

Whilst visiting Mt Maunganui I visited The Souvenir Shop, I Picked up a brochure on the Bioptron Light off the counter and spoke to Patricia Mcclintock about the treatments, Suffering from degeneration of the lower spine and Arthritis and having erotic pain which has caused me to have to wear a Tens machine for the pain. I decided to try the treatments. After the first treatment, I had absolutely no pain whatsoever and continued the treatments for a further 7 days with great wens. I suffered pain day and night never without it for months, Now I can jump over the moon I also suffer from Phorisis in many parts of my body and the short 6 days of treatments have made a vast improvement on the look of that also. I would fully recommend the Bioptron light treatments to any person with any problems at all.

Having had very severe arthritis of the neck and head for the last two years and not wanting to resort to drugs prescribed by the doctor and specialist. I decided to go for natural remedies and therapies. I think I tried everything all to no avail. It was agony to try and lay my head on the pillow at night and just as painful to get off it in the mornings. After 12 months of spending a huge amount of money and time getting to and pro from these places I attended, I didn't improve. I cried a lot.
Eventually, I had to take the painkillers and the Voltaren that I tried not to take at the first place. 2 Voltaren a day and 2 Panadine every 4 hours, this also for another year and then I WAS introduced to the Bioptron Light. From the first time I used it, I felt relief and I haven't looked back since using this amazing light. After the first day of using it, I never took one painkiller. After one week I was down to 1 Voltaren a day and that will be reduced to nil very soon.
After playing Golf and Competitive Golf for my club for quite a few years and being made Vice Captain I was devastated to have to resign as I was unable to play or do the duties of the office side. I was unable to hold my head down long enough to write or do cards. This letter is the first thing I have written in 18 months, other than a Greeting Card. This amazing Bioptron Light has made me so well and more mobile than I ever dreamt I would be in only three weeks of using it and I hope that in the not too distant future I shall be able to play Golf again.
My husband and family are astounded and are so happy to have their wife and mother back again, instead of the misery that I bad become.
I am just in awe of this wonderful light and so enthused that at the age of 67 I intend to become a Zepter agent and let other people benefit from its healing properties the same as myself. Especially as it not only gave me such relief from the Arthritis but it cleared up a very nasty scaly red patch that had appeared on my face two weeks previously and showed no sign of going. After 5 days of treatment. 4 minutes twice a day, it has gone. Amazing results, amazing Bioptron!
My 4-year-old Granddaughter summed it all up when she said "Nanny, you can bend your bead to kiss me now, isn't that good". IT SURE IS!

I have treated myself with the Bioptron Compact since September 2000. It was originally for Osteo Arthritis throughout my body with big problems in my left knee.
So when I had my accident at Auckland Airport (ending upside down on the escalator) last October, I realised how much the Osteo had progressed in 25 years!! Back in Canterbury after 24 hours in Middlemore Hospital, a good friend looked after me with her big Bioptron 2, while I used the Compact where I could.
Huge areas of bruising, "chew" marks all over my body from the escalator as well as the threat of Plastic Surgery on my hand; sore shoulders, neck and head were my legacy from the accident.
However, after the next few days of Bioptron treatment, the progress was staggering. These days I go to Rugby events etc. - I am walking better with minimal pain and can now write again. I am treating all the areas at least daily.
Also, I have had shingles for 3 years (head area). I keep it under control by treating it daily. As well the Bioptron light is great for my eyes (2 minutes daily for "Dry Eye"; Ears (Hearing Aid), then there are the wrinkles, corns, cuts and burns - not to mention the bad hair days due to shingles.
Just all those little things that make life so much more comfortable !!! Did I mention it - I am 81 years old.

These are the things I have successfully used my lamp for with my friends and family:
Arthritis Three fingers on the right hand refused to bend for more than five years. Now after a three-week treatment improved and now after 'topping up' occasionally complete flexibility of movement and no pain. Toe pain stopped completely if topped up regularly.
Severe pain in knees 1. Cause unknown - ameliorated by the use of lamp 2. Pain gone - No longer need a knee replacement 3. Knee pain caused by breaking of tendons during dislocation twenty years ago Is kept under control with regular treatment
Backache Eased and sometimes stopped completely
Long-term pain in arm> Has disappeared completely
Wrist pain Greatly reduced no longer thinking of carpal tunnel operation
Thank you! So many people have been helped with this machine and now look to it for regular use.
A colleague, who was suffering from chronic Rheumatism in his hand, offered himself for testing the Bioptron Light Therapy.
After only 2 weeks, improvement was visible, after 3 weeks the pains had completely disappeared. He was pleasantly surprised.

Pamela first started telling me about the light late in 1999. I had chronic Rheumatoid Arthritis for a number of years and was reduced from an always-active motor mechanic to a prematurely old man within weeks of the onset. To make matters worse I suffered from Polymyalgia as well which meant that my muscles became very sore and wasted away. I had tried all the cures in the book and then eaten the book! NOTHING WORKED except cortisone injections and then only for a few weeks at a time.
I was totally sceptical about the light. So much so that my wife didn't even tell me that Fern was bringing it out for a demo until she actually arrived. Anything to keep Pamela quiet!
Over several hours Fern used the light on my legs and knees, which were preventing me from even walking they were so painful. I also had swelling over the carpal tunnel, which just seemed to disappear within a short time after treatment. The most amazing thing was after the treatment I was able to get up and walk up and down the front stairs without too much discomfort. I was even able to take Fern to my garage and show her my vintage
So I bought a Bioptron compact and have now been using it for 11 months. It has not cured my arthritis or polymyalgia but it helps enormously with pain control and I have been able to reduce the cortisone.
For example, I suffer from sore ankles and I use the light for 6-8 minutes on each side of the ankle. This eases the pain within 30 minutes to 2 hours and I can walk more freely again. For niggling pain I use it every 2nd day and for more severe pain 2 times a day.
My skin has become frail and wounds easily (a combination of age and medication side effects) I have found the light invaluable to aid healing. I developed a small ulcer like sore on my leg and with daily tight treatment it healed up within 2-3 weeks and has not returned.
I developed severe earache, went to a doctor and was told that because my throat was inflamed and there was no medication that would help as I had already tried eardrops. I tried the light when I got home and the pain went away within a couple of hours. Bruises that I collect easily are drawn out and disappear quickly.
Although I still have my arthritis and probably always will, my joints have remained very flexible to the amazement of my specialist. Many of my friends have bought a light knowing what it has done for me and I have gone from a sceptic to a believer to an advocate.
Thank you Pamela and Fern for your patience and persistence - you have given me a new lease on life.

I am a 76-year-old widow, a paediatrician by profession. With regard to my age, I have been battling with arthritis for over 20 years. although considering my medical knowledge the arthritis never really thrived but was always quite painful and as I get older the movement of my joints and spine is getting more limited. Before I started with the Bioptron light therapy I took antirheumatics that helped the arthritis but, considering the many years of use, harmed my stomach. Bioptron light and colour therapy helped me get rid of the pain in the joints and increase their mobility and to protect my sensitive stomach, because I had stopped taking the antirheumatics. I usually have the treatments every day. although now considering the fact that I have already been using it for over a year. I can skip a few days and the joints will remain very mobile and painless.
Since l had had good results with my joints I started to treat my eyes and ears. My eyesight. in consideration of my age, is weakened thus I wear glasses and I also had the starting signs of a cataract. My hearing is also considerably weakened in both ears so I must use a hearing aid without which I couldn't properly communicate with my family. I also had tinnitus in both of my ears, although it was stronger in the left.
The Bioptron light and colour therapy helped both my eyes and ears. My eyes feel a lot more rested. I can see clearer and when I read without my glasses they don't get tired as fast as they used to. The therapy also affected my hearing very positively. so much that I can now successfully communicate without my hearing aid. and the tinnitus is gone while I have my therapies. and if the pause isn't longer than a few days it usually does not return between treatments. Even if it does return it is not nearly as annoying as it used to be. I just wanted to share this with you in the hope that others may have the courage to try out this effective, harmless treatment.

I have been an acute asthmatic since I was eight. I have been on steroids and Ventolin and during the past few years, I have been having severe attacks that often had me end up in the hospital. The last attack - status asthmaticus lasted for five days and had to be hospitalized - I had in October last year.
In December of last year I started having Bioptron light and colour therapy treatments three times a week and my health condition slowly but surely started to get better. When I started having the Bioptron treatments I decreased the usage of the steroids until I stopped using them altogether. Thus it has now been quite some time since I last used them, and I don't have any health problems because of it. I breathe much better and easier and feel much more powerful. I also use less and less Ventolin, even when I do it is usually in the mornings and sometimes evenings, but in much smaller doses.
The Light Therapy alongside the appropriate diet and the fact that I don't eat any allergens has helped me immensely. Although my hairdressing job still exposes me to some allergens they don't affect my breathing the way they used to. I will continue with the Bioptron therapy and I believe that within the next 6 months, I will be able to discontinue the use of Ventolin and become a completely healthy person.
with much respect and gratitude towards the Bioptron lamp, I write this letter so that I might inform other people with asthma that something much better and less dangerous than steroids exists, something that can relieve their breathing problems and enhance their lives.
In regard to my profession - a hairdresser, which I have been my entire life, my back, as my entire skeleton, and my muscles were very tight and stiff condition. They were painful on movement and even to the touch. The neck and shoulders especially, but also the shoulder-blade region and the muscles beside the spine. The muscles were like lumps, hard and painful, and unevenly tightened on the right and left sides of the spine which caused an additional burdening of my spine.
Daily treatments with the Bioptron lamp and a weekly massage resulted in unbelievably fast results. Now my muscles are completely soft and relaxed and there are no more lumps, my back is much more mobile and there is no more pain.

My son was born emergency c-section at 38 weeks premature and the pregnancy entirely normal. He was diagnosed with ISCHAEMIA NECROSIS OF THE ARMS Which described as blood clots within the skin tissue that looked like lesions. He was rushed to the neonatal unit at national women's in Auckland and heat lamps were placed above his bed which caused the large like lesions to form dry scabs.
On the advice of the plastic surgeon no moist wound dressing or water was permitted on the area, as any infection would precipitate the need for surgery and to allow secondary healing to be the best solution. I was relieved that my son would not require surgery, as the pain he suffered from birth was unbearable even though the arms were bandaged he still cried in pain from any movement.
His face was distressed and so was mine and I felt so helpless. Nobody had any answers as to why or even how long my son's arms would take to heal. The size of the lesions were so large that the doctors knew it would be at least 6 months before any positive result and my son would have to endure the suffering.
I knew of the Bioptron lights and decided we would start treatment straight away under the care of Lee McInroe at The West Auckland Bioptron Light Therapy Clinic. The wounds required a nurse to change the bandages and we had this done at every treatment so the light would be able to come in contact with the skin.
Our first visit was on the 5th of November then we did three visits a week on Monday, Wednesday and Friday for two weeks. We found the bandage removal caused a great deal of pain on his arms at the beginning but the pain decreased dramatically and we noticed a change in the skin area around the wounds but within the dry scabs you could see the light made the blood cells glow a bright red and I felt that this is going to work. The nurse said there was improvement of circulation and the tissue looked healthy.
We changed visits to twice a week every Monday and Friday from November 24th to December the 19th. The dry scabs started to fall off to reveal healthy skin on his left arm and by this time his arms were now completely pain free, flapping his arms and moving his legs about like a wiggly worm running a marathon.
There was no treatment during Christmas and new years but on January 2nd 2004 we went to the clinic for light treatment. We removed the bandage and my son would not keep his arm still and after 10 minutes of light treatment the dry scabs on his right arm fell off to reveal perfectly healthy skin.
I was told Bioptron lights heal by accelerating the body's natural healing process without having to use any sought of ointment or medicinal product and I took into consideration the doctors orders and thought the lights are the perfect option.
I was sceptical at first because I felt my son's condition was too enormous to expect a miracle but low and behold I was proved wrong. In less then three months my son is healed. I felt pure relief of not having to fear possible infection or listen to my son cry in pain.
During the visits at the clinic, information was made available to me regarding the lights and how they work. I took further study on the Internet and found it comforting in knowing that no harm would come to my son during treatment.
I had to look upon it as just what they are LIGHT but different to a light bulb and yet similar to the sun because we all know that the sun stimulates vitamin A and E but to see the result was a true miracle.
would like to take this time to thank those whom were involved for helping this to be made possible thank-you

I am writing to tell you of the results I've had after purchasing my Bioptron Light. An accident left me with three damaged vertebrae in my lower back and a trapped nerve in my left hip. The pain was agonizing and debilitating, I relied on crutches for mobility for over a year.
After just one week of using the Bioptron Light morning and evening, the pain literally melted away.
After two weeks the crutches were not needed. Now after five months the damaged nerves and tissues are healing and I have returned to a normal way of life.
The Bioptron is truly Amazing. Thank you so much for introducing me to this incredible healing tool. My family and friends were astounded at my rapid recovery. I have absolutely no hesitation at all in recommending Bioptron to others.

It is extremely difficult to express the enormous improvement in my mobility and the extreme level of energy that I have gained after receiving treatment from the Bioptron lights, which has been witnessed by family and friends.
After years of treatments from physios, acupuncture, and various forms of conventional medicine, I can only say nothing has ever achieved the relief of pain and misery that I have felt on my path to recovery. Nothing has matched the results I have obtained from the Bioptron natural healing lights.

I was very keen to use the BIOPTRON Lamp when it was introduced to me as I had a number of health problems which included bad circulation and back pain.
For years I suffered with lower back pain that would flare up from time to time especially if I had to sit all day at a computer or was under any kind of stress. It usually meant every natural pain relief such as essential oils to rub in the painful area.
Since using the BIOPTRON Lamp every day for 10 minutes on my back and 10 minutes on my stomach I have not had to apply pain relief oils or creams. Using the lamp daily has such a relaxing effect on me and has made my back stronger and much more flexible.
My husband has also experienced such exceptional pain relief for his neck problem.
He has applied the lamp for half an hour on his neck and this has increased his flexibility and relieved him from extreme pain.
We use the lamp daily for any pain or inflammation. My husband's throat was very sore recently maybe from an allergic reaction. The epiglottis was swelling and sometimes this is a result of an MSG allergy but whatever the reason I used the BIOPTRON immediately. I applied twice. One general light application for 35 minutes on his neck and the other application with the BIOPTRON direct on the epiglottis for 10 minutes. The inflammation was soon gone after these two applications.
I am truly grateful that I have my BIOPTRON lamp and would find it very difficult to live without as I use it for any inflammation, pain or discomfort and find it quickly relaxes me and eliminates pain.
The more we use the BIOPTRON the less we need to use other methods of pain relief.
I would highly recommend the BIOPTRON Lamp as an essential that everyone should have in their house to use daily. The benefits that my family has experienced have been outstanding and I am truly grateful for the BIOPTRON Lamp.

For the last two years I have suffered chronic pain in my rib and back area. The pain was constant, varying in intensity from a 6 to a 9 out of 10. The pain also affected my sleep pattern, it was impossible to get any real sleep for any length of time. If I was lucky I would get 1-2 hours of sleep a night even that was broken sleep. The only relief from pain during the night was to get up and walk around and do stretching exercises.
My doctor had sent me for several x-rays on my chest and back and I had also had a bone scan to eliminate any possible disease of the spine. The outcome of all the tests was that I was suffering from Undefined Nerve Damage, apparently the pain centre of the brain was sending out false messages to my back and ribcage. I found this very hard to accept as the pain I was experiencing was very real indeed.
There is no cure for this problem and the suggested treatment was pain medication and going on antidepressants. I stuck to the pain medication but was a little worried that I would become too dependent on them so I kept to a low dosage.
As you can imagine the quality of life was not great, energy levels were non- existent, but there did not appear to be any alternative. I had heard about the Bioptron Light Treatment and had seen some very good results on my mother-in-law’s leg ulcer. I had not given too much thought to the possibility of it being of any benefit to me.
I had been in extreme pain for about a 48 hour period, and the suggestion was made to try the Bioptron Light Treatment. I was not really sure if it would have any effect on my pain but I was ready to try anyway.
I started treatment with Lee Mcinroe at the West Auckland Bioptron Light Therapy Clinic, she suggested an intensive treatment to begin with concentrating on my rib, back and shoulder areas.
The results were almost instantaneous, the reduction in pain was unbelievable, and on the first night after the treatment started, I was able to sleep for about five hours straight, this was totally foreign to me after so long. We continued with daily treatment for the first week, and after each session, I felt more relief from pain and found my energy returning not to mention having brilliant sleep.
I am now having treatment once a week The results are totally unbelievable. From the first treatment, there has been no intense pain, and I am now dealing with a very manageable pain level of about 2-3. There has been no return to the broken sleep either, and I find that my sleep pattern is almost back to a 6-7 hour stint. I have also not had to take any pain medication since my first treatment.
I would recommend Lee Mcinroe and The West Auckland Bioptron Light Therapy Clinic to anybody who is in need of pain relief. The Bioptron Light Treatment has given me an almost normal pain-free existence when there were no answers to my medical condition.

I write to give testimony to the tremendous benefits I experienced from my treatment with the West Auckland Bioptron Light Therapy.
During the month of September, I was suffering tremendous pain from muscle tension in my right upper back. In the past, I had found that stress like this would disappear in time but on this occasion, it got so severe that I was unable to rotate my head to the right.
I contacted the West Auckland Bioptron Therapy Clinic and received six treatments of the Bioptron Pro over a period of 3 days. After the first treatment, there was noticeable improvement and by the final session, I had complete movement and no pain.
I must commend this form of therapy for its quick, painless, thorough and complete results. I would be my treatment of choice in any future instance of muscle strain or pain.

I treated a patient in my clinic in Germany (Starnberg, Germany) for carpal tunnel syndrome. The patient was treated with BIOPTRON twice daily for 10 minutes each day, over a period of 3 weeks. Significant improvements were already observed after a few days, with significant reductions in pressure sensation in the wrist, and the patient being able to do small jobs that previously caused pain. After 3 weeks of treatment, the patient only required his wrist support at work for heavy duties, but most other duties were performed without the wrist support again. The patient was significantly relieved and happy, particularly by the lack of pain after only 3 weeks of daily treatment, and the resulting improvements in quality of life.
Unfortunately, the patient reallocated so I could not treat him any longer, but the 10 minutes 2 x/day improved his condition so well that he no longer needed the arm brace. I am pleased and the patient is amazed that in his packing and moving to another state, he had no pain or complaints.

I started Bioptron light treatment because I had to have six sessions of chemotherapy, at monthly intervals. Two years ago I had a similar course of chemo and therefore I knew how miserable this would make me feel. So I was very willing to try light treatment to see if it would help support my body through this difficult time.
After my first Chemo treatment, I had all the responses I had experienced with my previous sessions - nausea, vomiting, dizziness, furry tongue, horrible taste in the mouth and utter exhaustion. Then I began the Bioptron light treatment nearly every day and the results have been amazing. My only problem now, after my monthly chemo, is extreme exhaustion, and this is very easy to cope. with. My skin is in excellent condition and I have lost no hair at all (last time I was quite thin on top). In fact, my hairdresser tells me that my hair is in the best condition she has ever known it!
I eat and sleep well and am in excellent spirits, especially now that a CT scan shows my tumour is shrinking!
I feel confident that the light and colour therapy has helped my body to cope and I am.so grateful to you to have had the opportunity to have treatment every day.
I thank you most sincerely, for your dedication in helping me support my body.

I am a 75-year-old pensioner of Avondale, and have been undergoing treatment from Ms Lee Mclnroe on both my legs through the use of her Bioptron light therapy for approximately four months now. Both my legs sustained severe heavy bruising as a result of an accident from a fall, which left them with dark purplish patches on my shins that did not allow for regular blood circulation. This lack of blood circulation caused my skin to become extremely fragile and susceptible to the merest abrasion or pressure that when pierced would take weeks and sometimes months to heal. The pain from all these ailments made for many sleepless nights. I was prior to this taking a cocktail of pills and tablets prescribed me by my doctor for my problem but to no avail -if anything, I now believe this to have exacerbated the problem further.
Since undergoing this Bioptron treatment my legs have since lost the dark discolouring of the skin. I can also now walk around a lot more freely without any more pressure or tenderness being felt in either of my legs from my weight. I no longer feel any more cramping which regularly interrupted my sleep most nights causing extreme discomfort.
Needless to say, the eventual improvement on my legs in turn led to the same Bioptron treatment being applied to other parts of my body i.e. the neck, head, spine, hips and feet. I can now say that I feel much more energised and revitalised that I am now able to do a whole range of things that were previously a struggle for me. I am forever grateful to Ms Lee McInroe for having made this all possible through her Bioptron light therapy. In saying this I would not hesitate to recommend her form of therapy to anyone, whatever his or her ailments. Her therapy for me has been a tried and true exercise, and I cannot recommend it strongly enough.

I broke my hip and healing was very slow. I had been using a walker for the last two months and was not able to put my foot fully on the ground. The doctors were worried because I am a diabetic and there had been a delay before the operation, provoking a potential necrosis.
Because of circulation difficulties, my leg felt icy and was a mottled, dull colour. At this point, Heidi entered my shop and, seeing me negotiating the small space behind the counter with difficulty, asked me what had happened. After I explained, she went home and came back with her Bioptron light and colours. She told me what it could do and my scepticism knew no bounds, but I was ready to try anything.
In 10 minutes my ankle, which was stiff and unbending through lack of articulation, became much more supple. Encouraged by this, she left the light and colours with me, with instructions on how to use them.
I used the purple colour on my whole leg and the Bioptron and orange on my hip.
In 3 days my leg felt lukewarm; after a week it was warm and the colour was normal. I was also able to put my foot to the ground and started walking with the aid of a cane - a huge help while negotiating the confines of my small shop. I used the light for three weeks at Heidi's insistence. I had no pain at all.
I went back to my specialist who expressed surprise and satisfaction at the way my hip was healing.
I am continuing exercises with the physio, and today I am walking freely.
I am absolutely convinced that the Bioptron and the purple colour not only accelerated my healing time, but played a vital role in restoring circulation to my leg after months of non-use. I heartily recommend Bioptron for all injuries and especially for diabetics whose biggest difficulty is poor healing because of a lack of good circulation.

Hi Christine and Sam, thought you would both be very happy to see the photos of Dads legs. (was about to get amputated) He no longer has to have 3 monthly hospital visits or does he have the District Nurse call. He is off all of those major pain/nerve tablets. He is only on Panadol and his other blood pressure tablets, so all in all he is doing as well as can be expected.
He still has a lot of aching in his lower legs and around his kness, but I try and explain that this is all due to the lack of circulation and it probably wont get much better than what it is. He looks so much better now that his is off those tablets.
I would like to personally thank you both for all the time and patience you put into Dad. I can 100% guarantee we would not be in this position had we not found the Bioptron Light.
Once again thanks so much I am so grateful for your help and support.

I am a 39-year-old mother of two and my passion is Latin dancing. I came for cellulite treatment because I was going to dance in a show and I was self-conscious about my legs. At the end of the course I am so delighted with the results not only the smooth legs and buttocks but I now also have much better circulation, I've changed shape and my veins have nearly gone.
Having invested money in myself has made me aware of what I'm worth. This may sound dramatic but it has actually changed my whole life — My attitude toward my health and myself is different. I now look at my whole self. It has recreated an awareness of my self and my well being. I have so totally refocused my life and even changed my career. A lot of this has been due to the forced quiet time I spent lying under the lamp, an unusual luxury.
I would really recommend this treatment not only for the physical results but because you're worth it in a much wider sense.

After 5 years of chronic constipation, due to Cancer, at last, I feel lighter, healthier and 100% less toxic, after completing the Discharging and Purging Program in the Colour therapy kit.
1 am now Purging regularly and naturally. and am truly thankful for that alone from the Light. However that is only the beginning. I’m now onto the Digestion/Metabolism Program and can’t wait to start noticing those results.
I’ve daily been using the full spectrum filter for my Thymus and Pituary and am noticing, dearer skin, harder fingernails and no white spots either! I’ll update in a few more months and report results for my lines and scars.

That was what I was hoping to hear on 15th May this year. I shall explain. I have just turned 60 and have been a diabetic, on Insulin injections, since age 14. and at that stage taking 16 units of 24-hour insulin, 16 units short-term before breakfast, 14 units for lunch and 14 for dinner. I like to think that my life has been uneventful, enjoying rugby as a youth and fishing ever since, but on looking back I find things have happened to me.
I have had quite bad psoriasis for about 25 years. I lost my left eye through retinopathy about 16 years ago. My kidneys have been slowly giving up, due for dialysis in May this year. I lost my left leg 3 years ago, and the surgeon has been attacking my right leg earlier this year. I lost 3 toes in March this year, and now have two left. I am a bit bald on top but have always felt I was reasonably healthy.
Most diabetics seem to have trouble with legs and particularly toes. I was advised to take great care of what I had left. Circulation was poor so there was difficulty with healing. After sitting around home trying to get the large wound in my right foot to heal, the first month seemed extremely slow.
On 15th May my District Nurse mentioned that she had just had a talk at the Hospital by a lady who was promoting a new type of healing light. Would I like to try it? I of course, said yes. What was there to lose (apart from toes)
We photographed the wound (photos enclosed) and decided we would check in 4 days. I used the light for a few minutes each day, placing a gauze cover each time. No dressing. I showed the nurse 4 days later, and she was totally amazed at the advance in healing. We have continued this process for four months and that large open wound has steadily healed. No infection and no regression. The foot is now completely healed. Both my nurse and myself are completely amazed.
Along with the light, (BIOFTRON) I have more recently started taking AMBROTOSE powder 4 times daily, as supplied by the same lady, Judy Alvos. This is a new product for New Zealand and is made initially in USA where it started in late 1990's. I am skeptical about most treatments but have to say the effect on my body is remarkable. I was shad to start kidney dialysis some 4 months ago and had a plastic tube inserted into my left arm for this. At this stage now there is apparently no need. My Renal Surgeon is surprised.
I place the blame for my good fortune on several people, but mainly, 1. my district nurse who suggested the treatment to me, and was willing to see it through with no alternate dressings of any sort, and was totally delighted with the result. 2. my good friend Judy Alvos who steered me through with the light and the Ambrotose at the last minute for what was my failing body.
I now take 13 units of 24-hour insulin, 13 breakfast dose, 6 lunchtime and 7 evening. A big drop.
I strongly recommend both. (people and treatment)

I began using my Bioptron Compact at the beginning of September this year to treat Tinnitus and acute hearing problems.
During the first week of treatment (twice a day) the sound of the 2-minute beep was unbearable, however with continual daily treatment the sound has become less distressing. The high-pitched ringing in my ears is now unnoticeable, only slightly returning at the end of a busy twelve-hour working day. This is quickly alleviated with Bioptron treatment before sleeping.
Prior to using the Bioptron the maximum amount of massage therapy I could achieve without suffering undue muscular stress was 3-4 hours per day. Using the Bioptron morning and evening on hands and tippet" Trapezlus and neck Flexor and Extensor muscles I am able to achieve at least 8 hours of massage with absolutely no muscle ache during working hour& The only discomfort exists when I wake up and the ache disappears after Bioptron treatment.
I am so happy that I am no longer limited during my daily work load in massage therapy.

I purchased my Bioptron Light from Mirjana Arlov in November 2005 after a demonstration my husband and I attended while at Equitana in Melbourne. At that point my husband had a repetitive strain injury of his elbow which was not improving with other methods of treatment, but after 3 days of treatment while at Equitana it was well on the way to recovery. I also had a mare at home who had recently gone unsound from thickening of her palmer annular ligaments on both front legs so I was keen to see if this treatment would help.
I am now at the point where I simply could not live without my Bioptron Light. It came with initial training from the lovely Mirjana, followed up by a weekend Mirjana's Equine Bioptron course which I attended and from there it was a case of experimenting, reading anything I could get my hands on and ringing Mirjana with endless queries which she so patiently answered. This all started me down a new path of enlightenment into the world of Chinese medicine and alternative treatments and I am experimenting with fields that I hardly knew existed - let alone had any faith in before with some wonderful results. I am also finding that each step along the way opens new doors for me to explore and I recommend this journey to anyone with an open mind. The Chinese medicine principles help me expand the field of use of the Bioptron. I tend to use the coloured light filters more than the broad-spectrum light and have had some fantastic results.
The whole family has benefited - as have the odd friend or family member who happen to cross my path.

Auckland Zoo's famous elephant Kashin responded incredibly well to Bioptron light treatment for an arthritic foot condition and a recurring facial sore.
Senior keeper Bruce Ireland says Kashin's wound healed and she was more playful. much less anxious and happier following successful treatment with the light. Previous pain relief remedies had not worked on the elephant.
As well as behavioural changes, a series of thermographs taken at Intervals during the period suggested the blood flown in the arthritic area vastly improved.
“I have experimented with the light on my own lower back, which has become strained over the years and which is now vastly improved,' says Bruce.
Various other members of the staff also have used the fight for minor aliments whenever possible.

I started with the light treatments due to pain and stiffness in my hips, but at the same time, I had treatments done on my face to affect my pituitary gland and thus the entire body. After the first treatment, I already started to feel the effects of the light therapy. That night I slept very deeply — longer than usual and in the morning I felt a lot more powerful and better rested than usual, and my hips were no longer stiff.
Excited about the excellent results of the light therapy I decided to start having regular treatment. After 5-6 more treatments there was no need to continue Therapy on my hips because they were not a worry anymore. However I still continued with the treatments on my face, not for cosmetic purposes but because of the pituitary gland, which was, in my case, reacting very positively to the treatments by contributing to a deeper sleep and a better mood during the day.
I am very pleased with the results of the Bioptron treatment and would like to extend my gratitude to Dr. Gordana for introducing me to a whole new aspect of healthcare and well- being.

I had had an accident at home where I hit myself on a sharp edge. After I noticed that the wound was not healing after a three-week period I decided to seek help in light therapy since I had heard of its excellent results with leg ulcers.
I came for therapy session 5 times a week for 6 weeks. Each session lasted for 10 minutes. During that time the wound had decreased in depth considerably and was at skin level, just the skin hadn't closed up yet. Since I had to go on a trip I stopped having therapies, but the wound still healed successfully.
I am very pleased with the results that the Bioptron light therapy device has given me and recommend it to anyone with the same problems.
The patient was an old woman who walked alone with the help of a walker, and she suffered from high blood pressure, depression, scoliosis, ulcerative varicose veins, parotid cancer, phlebitis and undernutrition. She had several ulcers on the legs for a longtime, which never healed completely.
The patient was treated every day during 5 minutes with BPro 1 red filter before the standard cleaning treatment for the ulcer. To follow the evolution of the ulcers, photographs were taken at different time intervals during the Bioptron treatment.
All the sparse ulcers were treated with Bioptron Light Therapy, photos of only two of the ulcers are represented, one represented over time at the upper raw, another one at the same time lapses at the bottom. At day 9 after the start of the treatment we can observe an improvement of the ulcers borders, with presence of healthy scar tissue. This improvement was constant during all the treatment until the patient decided to stop it (Day 21). At that moment the ulcer state did not worsened over time, but it did not improve neither (Day 27). Finally, the nurses convinced the patient of the beneficial effects of Bioptron and the Light Therapy was re-started 21 days later. Two days after this new start (Day 2’) the ulcers presented an evident and huge healing improvement. At day 8 after the new start of treatment with Bioptron (Day 8’) the ulcers were almost closed and the patient did not have pain anymore.
Photographs of two of the sparse leg ulcers ulcer over the time during Bioptron treatment. A clear improvement is visible from Day 9 until Day 27. Ulcers did not develop during the absence of Bioptron treatment. A clear improvement was observed after the second start of Bioptron treatment (photos Day2’ and 7’).
15 days after the second start of Bioptron treatment two ulcers out of four have completely healed (as the case of top raw), the other two almost (bottom raw). In conclusion, Bioptron Light therapy has a real impact on the tissue healing on complicated chronic wounds and its beneficial effects remain over time.
COCOA was injured on December 19th 2006.She sustained the injury by being trapped by her hind leg in the top of an automatic garage door when it closed.
She was trapped for 5 hours and when found was in deep shock, depressed and dehydrated.
She spent the night in emergency care on a drip, was given Morphine for the pain and was transferred to her regular vet’s surgery the next morning where x-rays were taken and miraculously she had NO broken bones but had a severe crush injury.
She was given antibiotics and pain relief and medication for depression. Her leg was significantly swollen (to approximately three size of the normal size) and spongy and the vet commented that he thought she may need it amputated in a couple of weeks if there was no sign of any improvement. He advised that animals coped very well after amputation.
Cocoa’s owner had seen the effects of healing using a Bioptron Light and borrowed one from a friend and began treating Cocoa at the surgery on the 22rd December. Cocoa went home on the 24th December and was to be kept confined to allow her leg time to heal. She received light treatment twice daily and by Christmas Day the inflammation was reducing but her leg was still spongy. On Boxing Day her two outside toes on her foot were back to normal size.
On the 27th December there was a reduction in swelling but when she attempted to walk her foot just folded over, which was very concerning. We visited the vet who was clearly stunned with Cocoa’s progress and he checked her toes for feeling sensation which was very good. He took another x-ray to be sure there was no damaged bones in her foot and they were clear.
On the 28th there was a further reduction in swelling and her joints started to firm up slightly and her owner swapped the light for a model that enabled colour therapy.
On the 29th December – there was more reduction in swelling and Cocoa’s foot joint was getting a little stronger.
30th December - It’s clear Cocoa is happier in her well-being and has been allowed out of her cage to move about a little.
31st December – Moving about for a short while however her toes are still bending over and occasionally she gets pins and needles and causes her whole body to flip over
1 January 2007 – Out of the cage for a longer period today, her toes are still bending over but she is using her leg and foot more.
2 January 2007 – Cocoa’s joints are strengthening more each day but her toes are still bending over and causes concern.
3 January 2007 – Visited the vet today and he was stunned with Cocoa’s progress. He commented he couldn’t believe it (twice) how quickly she was recovering. He checked her reflexes which were good and said she could come out of her cage permanently to allow the recovery and strengthening of her muscles as they had atrophied after the accident. He commented that he didn’t need to see her again for two weeks.
7th January 2007- The swelling of the hind left leg was completely gone.
17th January 2007. – We visited the vet again today and he was very pleased with Cocoa’s continued improvement and has moved her return visit out to three weeks. He said she may always have a limp but had initially thought he would have to amputate her leg.
Cocoa continues to improve more each day, she is gaining weight and her muscles and joints are becoming stronger. I have continued to use the light every day and am convinced with continual use she will make a full recovery

My cat named George came to me and sat on my lap it was then that I noticed a large wound on the upper inside of his rear left leg. I had to go to see my wife Raewyn at the hospital that day so I took little George to the vet to get an antibiotic and some first aid. The vet said that the wound would need surgery and it would cost at least $550. I disagreed as the whereabouts of the wound if stitched would tear apart if the cat stretched or jumped as cats do. So I told the vet I would treat George myself and took him home. The vet didn't want me to take him away. He reported me to the SPCA and they came out to see me and they agreed with me that the wound would heal better without surgery. They wanted to see the cat but George is shy of strangers and ran away. So they called again 6 days later and even paid for me to take the cat to another vet for assessment. I then showed the vet the photo of the original wound and he was impressed with the progress of the healing but gave George an antibiotic to help the healing as the cat was licking the wound and there was a chance of infection. The SPCA followed up with a visit at day 21 and were satisfied with the results as there was very little to see of the wound and even very little scarring.

In February 2019, a cat came to the clinic with eczema on the upper nose. The microbiological scaling of the crusts was performed and the following pathogens were detected: Malassezia spp., Alternaria spp., Rhizomucor spp. and Microsporum spp.
Dr. Slate started treatment with Bioptron polarized light using the color purple and the results were visible after the first session. After 10 sessions of Bioptron light therapy, the cat had a full recovery without relapse.
For three weeks the cow had re-occurring Mastitis, which was treated with different kinds of Antibiotics, with only short-lived success.
Many knots of the sizes of pigeon eggs to chicken eggs in the whole of the udder.
Therapy: one dose of Silicea C2000 was given twice daily and the BIOPTRON 2 device was applied for three minutes on each quarter of the udder.
Result: after four days the knots had disappeared completely. The milk contained many big flakes of puss, which created difficulties during the milking process.
Giving one dose of Phellandrium D12 once daily, made it easier to milk. After four more days the animal was back to full health.
RELEVANT FACTORS:Mastitis due to new milking machine replacement. Stress factors in cows - withholding milk.
PRESENTING SYMPTOMS Udders - Left or Right back quarters and some both hind quarters
Therapy: one dose of Silicea C2000 was given twice daily and the BIOPTRON 2 device was applied for three minutes on each quarter of the udder.
INITIAL CONDITION: Light engorged udders - lumps felt on massaging gently. Some leaks and bleeding. Skin on heats. Pains to touch. Very sore
TREATMENT REGIME: 10 minutes on the affected quarter once per day
FIRST SIGN OF IMPROVEMENT: Within 5-6 minutes milk being released from engorged udders. This was noted after the first treatment Application performed with the vet in attendance
Both owner and farmer amazed and vet was extremely impressed. Bioptron was the only treatment used, except only 2 cows were on antibiotics
Achieved: Instant letdown of milk Flow continuous Relaxation of cows Milked in under 4 minutes following Bioptron treatment
Follow-up being done. will use purple light on the forehead prior to the next treatment

Our dog had an accident recently and broke the ankle joint of the rear left leg, there was a bone protruding and extensive skin loss and muscle damage.
The initial vet visit put the bone back together via pin and wire attached to a bolt.
One of The biggest problems we had was the loss of skin and the possibility of grafting was mentioned, however, the Bioptron light was used on the damaged areas daily with the bandage changes.
The vet was surprised at how quickly the wounds healed and there was no infection in the wounds at all, despite the ankle bone being visible for a few weeks as the skin repaired itself with what’s called granulation tissue.
We also used the light on specific areas that related to meridian energy lines using the coloured lenses that came with the light, whenever we did this our dog calmly stood there lapping up the colour show that was for her benefit.
After six weeks the entire damaged area was covered and our dog is ready for the bolt and wire to be removed, we need to wait eight weeks for an assured bone knit.
The fact that our dog now uses her leg after six weeks means she will not have a problem with the removal of the hardware which is still protruding from the joint.
There has been no sign of infection and healing has been rapid as the vet has noticed, I put a majority of this success with the use of the Bioptron light.

My two German Shepherds aged 10 and 11 have probably benefited most from the use of the Bioptron Light. As they are both big (36kg and 34kg) active dogs, they tend to get muscle strains which I now find I can treat immediately with great results.
Ridge, the older male dog suffered from an early age from a hind end arthritis type problem and had got to the stage where his hindquarters had taken on a very tight pinched appearance, his movement was definitely restricted, and he had taken to spending a lot of time sitting on the back doorstep. Use of the Bioptron Light, in particular purple and blue light, quickly started freeing him up and he returned to racing around the paddocks with his tail swinging freely in large circles. He now receives regular treatments and often will come and sit at my feet at night if he is in need of a treatment and the minute the light comes out he races off to the bedroom and hops on the bed (the easiest place I have found to treat the dogs because I have them up at a good height).
Ridge has also for some time now had an adverse reaction to high-pitched noises. If the batteries start to go on the smoke detectors and they emit a high-pitched beep, it will send him into a real panic and he will vacate the premises and refuse to come back in. Same with high-pitched noises on the radio or TV. However, I have discovered that by applying blue or purple light to his ears for 4-6mins each, I can completely eliminate his sensitivity for several weeks at a time.
Elle, the wee female, has recently developed a yeast infection which manifests as extremely itchy, hot, red inflamed skin with hair loss over the affected parts and a strong odour. She also has two growths; one on her hind leg and another on her stomach. I have been treating her twice daily with blue and purple light and have managed to take all redness out of the rash, and almost completely stop what was incessant scratching and biting at the affected areas, and remove the extreme build up of heat in her body. The two growths are also starting to respond to treatment.

Just a note of thanks for your help in healing Heidi. If it wasn't for your help she wouldn't be here today.
She was apparently hit by a car or bike damaging her back which in turn collapsed her back legs, which she started dragging around. The vet said maybe an operation might help ($3000 +).
I met Jan and Graham through a friend and Jan did some healing with Heidi which made a difference right away. They lent me a Bioptron light which I used on Heidi twice a day — 6 mins. Within the first week on using the light she was starting to stand and look out the car window and walk and drag her back legs about. There was amazing improvement in most days with back legs collapsing now and the . Today she is running, jumping and standing..
For me to see all this is a miracle. Her look, coat and even happiness is apparent. She is so lively. If it wasn't for Jan and Grahams help and the use of the Bioptron light Heidi wouldn't be here.

Mark's dog broke the ankle of its rear left leg. There was a bone protruding and extensive skin loss and muscle damage. The initial vet visit put the bone together via pin and wire attached to a bolt. The Bioptron light was used on the damaged area daily with bandage changes. The vet was surprised how quickly the wounds healed and there was no infection at all.
For a long time, the dog had suffered from re-occurring Otitis externa on both ears which generally was resistant to any treatment. Now it had become so bad, that it was impossible to either clean his ears or to apply ear drops, without him screaming and biting. Because of the bad smell and the badly affected mood of the animal, the owner was thinking of euthanasia.
Therapy: Hepar sulf.C12 every day one dose and BIOPTRON once daily for 4 minutes on each ear (lifting of the earlobes). Because of the device’s humming noise, the distance was increased to 20cm. After the second treatment the dog was willing, obviously feeling the treatment as comfortable and soothing.
Result: After 3 days it was possible to carefully clean the ears without too much reaction against pain. The smell had almost disappeared. After one week the treatment was reduced to two times per week. After one month the ears were completely healed, only showing scars, knots and folds in the ear canals, which obstruct the flow of serum and make regular cleaning necessary. From here onwards Bioptron Light was used the moment any itching started. No serious Ostitis occurred until the dog’s death at the age of 16 years.

I have a Toy Poodle (Kandy) who had scratched her cheek (facial) quite badly with her back leg, After using cream from a vet it was quite clear to me that It would not work after 8 days of using, the wound was very angry and sore looking, no signs of healing were obvious.
I have never had a reason to use Oxy spray or my Bioptron Compact III Lamp on animals only on people I treated in my Beauty Salon. I decided to give it a go when I read about the successful treatment of horses with Bioptron, in a leaflet I had kept.
I treated Kandy twice a day spraying the wound with Oxy spray then applying the Bioptron lamp to the wound for 6 minutes followed by another spray of Oxy spray again. I sprayed the wound with Oxy Spray in between daily treatments.
This regime lasted for 14 days and to my amazement I saw the wound literally heal every day, no scab formed in the area of the wound, after 10 days all that was left on the cheek was beautiful soft pink skin no scar and the fur was growing back.
NB (The only addition to the treatment was a small tight sock attached to the back leg and blunting of nails to stop further scratching of the wound)
Regards and thank you for your advice regarding the treatment regime it was so easy.

I brought my Bioptron Light and Colour Therapy set five years ago and with Mirjana’s support have used it regularly on myself, my family and animals.
One example was a dog called Minty, she was going to be put down because she got very grumpy. Sometimes she would bite for no reason. I thought I would try colour therapy. I started working on her neck and liver. I also recommended a light collar for the dog. I’m happy to say five years down the track and Minty is a happy dog. She is now 15 years old. She was angry because the collar hurt her neck and when she looked up it hurt and blamed that on the person who was going to pet her. Also her liver had been playing up because as it turned out lead paint had been falling off around her house affecting her liver. The paint is all off now and the area has been painted with better quality paint.
Recently also some sick kittens from my local SPSA I have been using colour therapy to help them with orange for immune system, purple for inflammation and green for healing. After a couple of days of colour therapy, I see much happier healthier kittens and once they are fully recovered I take them back so they can find new homes.
Acute attack of Myositis eosinophilica, with high swelling and complete spasm of the masseter muscles on the left. It is the third attack within two years.
Therapy: Apply BIOPTRON 1 twice daily for 4 minutes.
Result: One hour after the first treatment the dog stopped whining. After three further hours the jaw could be moved, and he drank some water. The next day sensitivity to touch was still evident, but no other symptoms. Any further attack was treated in the same way with similar result. It is obvious that the PILER-Light Therapy cannot prevent re-occurrences.

Last week Graham O'Gorman called into the SPCA Clinic in Rotorua where I have been doing a locum. He offered to demonstrate Bioptron light therapy to us.
Using the Bioptron light treated four staff members and two dogs. I was very impressed with the results. Also intriguing was the keenness shown by one dog to receive the treatment.
Of the four staff members, only one experienced increased pain at the injury site before making a full recovery.
On the basis of his demonstration I can recommend to you to test the Bioptron you Light for yourselves.

Benson is a 14-year-old Long-Haired Dachshund desexed male dog.
Six years ago he was diagnosed with inoperable prostate cancer. He came to me for herbs and homeopathy and managed very well. He had no problems up until earlier this year when his prostate suddenly became enlarged to the extent where he could not pass urine. He was very depressed and would not go for his daily walks.
Benson had to be catheterized every second day. The owners brought him to me before making the decision to have him euthanised.
I changed his herbal preparation and started giving him the Bioptron light every time he had to have the catheter.
Two weeks later he started to urinate a little by himself so only needed to be catheterised every 3rd day. After the fourth week, Benson no longer needed to visit the vet. He now RUNS everywhere, takes himself for a swim in the sea for the first time in his life, has started to bark again, and can pass urine without any problems whatsoever.
He continues with his Bioptron treatment at intervals.

Use of Bioptron on my two dogs:
Festering inflammations of the ear canal of my 18-year-old: 5 days of treatment, 1-6 minutes duration.
Pussy, red eyes for my 9-month-old: four days of treatment, twice daily, each for 2-4 minutes.
With both animals the BIOPTRON Therapy was completely successful.

In August 2001 I was at my wits' end with my show dog Indara Hoss (Ditto).
His attitude in the ring told me there was more of an underlying problem than him just being lazy, which was the general consensus. The angles of his front and his hindquarter strength told me his drive and reach should be 90% better than he was using.
With an open mind, I approached Rachel Phillips who is an agent for the Bioptron Light Therapy and who is a qualified Equine Therapist.
During the first treatment, it was noted that he had old scar tissue on each side of his ribs. The muscles of the left hind did not have power, due to pain in that area.
There was heat through various parts of the spine and chest and his inner thighs were sore. He also had difficulty turning his neck to the right.
All the different coloured lenses were used. His now a standing joke that the orange one, especially for attitude is Ditto's happy pill.
His first outing after consistent weekly sessions, showed how good the treatment was: there was a noted different attitude after the first session. In the show ring, he powered into the ring, all drive and awesome reach. Still, a bit more work needed to be done in opening the gait and improving ground cover.
The general conclusion after the class was "Didn't Ditto do well". He was 1st NZ Bred dog and NZ Bred in Show. In his prior shows he was placing last. He is now a happier, more playful dog.
I fully recommend the Bioptron Light treatment to all dog and animal lovers.

I used both the small colour lamp and large lamp for about 10 years. Favour the colour lamp.
For my Dog: heals sores where he bites his legs and the moisture infections he sometimes gets between his toes. Use the colour red. Use so often that the dog is relaxed about the lamp

On the 1st April 2007 our very energetic foxy, (Jessie), ran down our hallway to retrieve her ball. I don't know what she did, but I heard a yelp and turned to see her just standing there not wanting to move.
The next morning it became obvious that she was in extreme pain, so I raced her off to the vet. They did blood tests gave her some painkillers and told me to take her home and wait for the results.
The next day Jessie was even worse. Her face was shriveled up with pain and she just wouldn't get out of her basket. So off to the vet, we went again.This time they took x-rays and discovered that she had slipped 5 discs in her back. They believed that she would probably need spinal surgery, but wanted to wait a couple of weeks to make sure. They gave her an anti-inflammatory and a codeine-based syrup to help control the pain and sent us home again.
For three weeks I struggled to keep Jessie comfortable. She wouldn't drink anything, unless it was out of the palms of my hands. She would only go to the toilet once a day. Every time she moved she would yelp or moan. I had to carry her everywhere in her basket. Life was miserable for little Jessie and extremely stressful for my husband and I. We were considering putting her down.
First week of treatment: At home, for the next week I applied the lights as per Mirjana's instructions. Jessie's improvement was noticeable within 2 days as she began to drink all by herself and I was able to take her off her Codine-based syrup.
Second week of treatment: Jessie started to move around her basket (instead of just lying there). She was also able to start sitting up in her basket for short periods of time. She loved the lights being put on her back and wagged her tail each time she saw me approach with the console. She was drinking a lot at this point.
Third week of treatment: A noticeable improvement. At the beginning of the week Jessie started very gently getting out of her basket taking herself out side to the toilet.
She looked a little stiff, but I just kept on using the treatment. Soon she started greeting us at the door. By the end of the week, she was able to scratch her ears and move quite freely.
Jessie is now right back to normal, (just a little fatter). Life for my little foxy is full and happy with her chasing her ball, playing with the cat and her toys, chewing bones, running after rabbits and taking rides in the car.
Bioptron Light Therapy quite simply saved my dog’s life. If I hadn't seen it for myself I would never have believed it. Since then I have used it on my horse, my husband, my nephew and myself with excellent results. I recommend this treatment to anyone.!
My Rottweiler bitch, Helga, had a second radical mastectomy for mammary cancer. Due to the amount of skin removed the suture wound was pulled together very tightly and soon ripped open, leaving a 20cm-long, gaping wound that was continually weeping. It did not help that it extended up between her back legs, not allowing air to it.
In despair as to what to do I eventually called Heidi, having heard bits and pieces about the Bioptron light and noting it mentioned on her business card. The light and selected colours reduced the swelling, inflammation and redness almost immediately. Even better, Helga seemed to enjoy it. It soon stopped weeping and by ten days the wound was healing so well I stopped using the light. When I took her back to the vet for a progress check-up he exclaimed: "There's some kind of magic going on here!"
I am so grateful that my darling dog's suffering was dramatically shortened, and she was soon back to her usual ebullient self, not to mention no more washing of pus-smeared covers!

A dog with internal and external tumours given a vet’s prognosis of 6 months expected life - alive and very well 8 months later! With some of the external tumours that were present being unchanged and some being smaller or absent. He occasionally develops abdominal discomfort we believe but Bioptron Light Therapy soon settles this.

First, he put the light on our bearded dragon's leg because it was badly swollen and she appeared distressed. She had been climbing and had a fall after being chased by her tank mate. After 8 minutes of the light therapy, she was completely back to normal and the swelling had gone down. We now have her in a terrarium of her own.
Next was the boss Ardie Drummond who had suffered shoulder pain for years. After 8 minutes of Bioptron light therapy, the pain had gone and he was very impressed with the light.
Next we had some guinea pigs brought in and within 2 days they showed signs of back leg paralysis due to lack of calcium in their diet. The light was used on them several times and one is completely healed, the other two still need more light therapy but they are getting there and we have added more calcium to their diet as well.
I take the Bioptron light home every night and use it on myself with pleasing results because I have suffered a lot of leg and foot pain among other things. I sit there watching TV at night, put the light on the stand provided and shine the light on the areas that give me trouble. So easy!
I recently treated a horse which had been ridden for a long period in an ill fitting saddle.
The horse was by now lame and moving somewhat crabwise.
Quite a number of treatments were required as the horse had extensive muscle damage in the saddle area, and also damage caused to other parts of his body due to compensation in an attempt to relieve the pain.
On the first day, he was very difficult to treat as he refused to stand still.
The next day he was much more cooperative and licked, chewed, yawned, and regularly looked around at whatever area I was treating as if to say, "That’s the spot."
The horse, which had previously been "hard to catch" now started to meet me in thepaddock and happily followed me to the treatment area.
TO MY AMAZMENT I WENT OUT ONE MORNING TO FIND THAT HE HAD JUMPED OUT OF HIS PADDOCK AND WAS WAITING AT HIS TREATMENT AREA.
HE DID THIS TWICE MORE UNTIL I PUT HIM INTO A JUMP PROOF PADDOCK, I COULD NOT RISK HIM HURTING HIMSELF.
He has returned home, TO HIS HAPPY OWNERS and will be carefully brought hack into work with his new carefully fitted SADDLE.

I use my Bioptron light regularly on my two mares to treat bumps and bruises, muscle strains, sole bruising, and viral infections in fact it has now become my number one line of treatment.
Leena came in from the paddock one June morning profoundly lame in her right foreleg. After an ultrasound examination on 27 June 2005, the veterinary diagnosis was :
Right Fore: Thickening of the palmar annular ligament and of the synovial membrane of the digital sheath. Left Fore: Slight thickening of the palmar annular ligament.
Prognosis: In many horses, PAL desmitis becomes a chronic condition requiring surgical release to resolve pain from traction on the ligament during weight bearing and eliminate pressure from structures with the stenotic canal.
A decision was made not to use veterinary intervention: instead, after purchasing my Bioptron light in November 2005 I started a treatment of blue light, followed by orange light over the affected area, followed by the broad spectrum light.
After an initial 10 days of treatment, the unsightly swelling at the back of the fetlock had dramatically subsided and Leena was gradually returned to work. She has even returned to jump schooling with no recurrence of the swelling or unsoundness.
Elle developed what I initially thought was a sarcoid on her hind pastern but because of the rapid growth, size and appearance, I began to suspect (as did my vet) that it may have been a tumour, although tests were never carried out.
As it began to grow I became concerned although it was some time before I thought of treating it with Bioptron light. I read that Ann Browne of Cambridge had successfully treated a sarcoid with it. I began daily treatments with blue (and very occasionally purple) light of 6 minute durations once a day in September 2007 and 2 months later I was left with only a flat scab which then continued to wear off and the mare now has only the very slightest hint of a mark on her pastern with no indications of regrowth.
Both mares will stand unrestrained in the stable and in fact normally go to sleep while I am treating them.
Icelander Roam 6 years old
Since his import from Iceland an intense Summer-eczema at the mane and the hock developed.
Therapy: treatment for four days, twice daily for 8-10 minutes, then every three days for 8-10 minutes, shining the light in slow movements over the diseased skin areas.
Result: disappearing of itching after the first treatment. After two days the effected skin areas were dry and scaly. During all of summer the skin stayed scaly, but dry and without itching. Prophylactic treatment has been applied each summer since 1992. Sometimes there is a slightly scaly skin, but no eczema occurs any more.
Comment: In cases of Summer-eczema the treatment with PILER-Light does not always produce the desired effect. Sometimes there is only a slight improvement or no improvement at all.

Jabbo was born 4 weeks prematurely with severe deficiencies: inflammation of the cornea of the right eye due to the Herpes virus, and cleft palate. In the vet’s opinion the animal had no chance of life. He said: “ He’ll be able to suckle for 1 to 2 days, but what after that?”
Fortunately Jabbo’s mother had sufficient milk, therefore the loss of milk through the nostrils was not a problem. Since he had been born in the evening, I spent the night in the foaling box to observe the little one. I noticed he was behaving like any other newborn foal and displayed a strong will to live: he rose time after time to suckle the milk vigorously, yet the milk continued to flow back out through the nostrils. As my nursing experience had taught me how BIOPTRON Cold Light Therapy works, and I had 2 lamps of my own, I decided to use this treatment for Jabbo also. It was obvious that treatment would take a lot of time. Therefore, the next day, in order to have mother and foal close to our house, we moved them into a small wooden stable in the orchard. I wanted to support Jabbo's will to live.
Full of anticipation I treated the eye, as well as right and left of the nasal bone, for five days, every 4-5 hours, for a duration of 4-6 minutes. Then I reduced the treatment to 4 times daily, 4-6 minutes at a time. On the seventh day I believed I could see a dark stripe on the lower rim of the eye, however I did not want to get too excited, as it is commonly known that Herpes can be very hard to get rid of. After another three days I was now convinced: Hurray! BIOPTRON helped! 12 days later the eye had lost its milky veil. There were only two white spots left. Apart from these, the eye was clear. The cornea did not separate from the eye, as we had feared. We have found, when the Herpes virus resurfaces, as is generally the case, immediate treatments of 4-6 minutes are easily able to contain it.
Today Jabbo is 4 years old and we’ve had no complaints in the last 6 months.
Now the Cleft Palate:
For strengthening we fed Jabbo Aminolite mixed with water. We put it into a syringe and fed it into his mouth. Soon Jabbo started to nibble from his mother’s horse muesli. Then we gave him his own bowl - I wanted to see how much he ate. His appetite was normal, though accompanied by coughing, which did not seem to disturb him much. When the cough was over, he cheerfully kept feeding
Having been born in May (in Germany), he also loved the young grass. His coughing continued to diminish. Today he is eating the freshly fallen snow. I was not able to completely close the cleft palate, but he seems to be able to live with it quite comfortably.
Jabbo has become a spirited stallion. Together with my other seven horses, he moves in the paddocks the entire day. When they are racing, he keeps up with them. He is agile and very fast and he tries to fight with my two roans. Each time I look at them, I am so glad that I’ve used BIOPTRON. It was worth it.

A champion trotter was hit in the eye by a flapping strap. It was very swollen, weeping and painful. After 3 weeks of wrestling with him, trying to get ointments in his eye, he wouldn't let anyone near it and the vet talked about removing the eye which would have ended his successful career.
I used purple on it, and after the first surprised flick of his head, the horse didn't move, obviously enjoying the sensation - and not being touched. The trainer kept on using purple and Bioptron, and he was back in work in another 3 weeks.

An Appaloosa had ulcers in his eyes which the vet had treated several times. He was blind at night and had poor vision with weeping eyes during the day. The owners rented the light for a month and treated him a few times per week, using the purple and Bioptron. They were delighted at the results.

I received a call from Heidi who had read in the newspaper that one of my trotters, Sunease, had suffered an eye injury. A piece of flapping leather has struck him in the eye and we had been treating him for 3 weeks with eye drops and antibiotics, with no success.
His eye remained swollen and bloodshot and obviously bothers him a great deal, and all the handling made him further upset. With no improvement showing, the eye specialist started talking about possibly removing the eye. This would have effectively ended a good trotter’s racing days.
Heidi suggested using the Bioptron light. I had not heard of it, but just the fact that his head would not have to be handled was appealing. So a bit sceptically but with nothing to lose, I was quite happy for her to try.
We used the purple light to bring down the swelling and draw out the bruising, and the plain light twice a day. He did not seem to mind at all, although he didn't like the sound of the Oxy Spray.
Over the Xmas period, he missed a few days of treatment, but otherwise, he was treated every day. Then he cut his leg in the paddock and developed a proud flesh wound, which the vet had to cut away. At Heidi's urging, we used the light on that too, and it was healed very well.
He is back in training and the vet report shows no further deterioration with his eye. I am very impressed and grateful that Heidi took it upon herself to telephone me about the Bioptron light.

As you know, following a nasty fall, my mare tore a muscle very badly above the stifle, which left a significant haematoma around the stifle region. After about two weeks when it had been drained a number of times, and was cleared that the bleeding had ceased, my Veterinary Surgeon recommended therapy to assist with the breaking down of the clotted blood.
At the time she put me in touch with yourself and your Bioptron Light Therapy.
The prognosis for the complete reabsorption of the haematoma, under natural circumstances, was four to six months. This would also likely have resulted in some fibroses which, for a competitive event horse was not ideal.
I used your red and purple light therapy on the haematoma daily for a period of approximately five weeks. She even seemed to enjoy the therapy. In this time the clot was reduced significantly. So much so that the mare is back in work and Veterinary advice is that the remaining swelling will disperse during normal exercise.
The Veterinary Surgeon, whose advice the horse was under, expressed her pleasure that your Biopton Light had very significantly increased the reabsorption rate of the haematoma as compared with the body's natural healing process.
Thank you very much for getting my horse back to competitive work sooner than expected.

A 10-year-old roan has abscesses in the hoof sole and wall on both sides. After 6 weeks of treatment with BIOPTRON, 3 times daily for 4 minutes per leg onto the hoof sole and 4 minutes onto the white line of the wall, the first success was evident. (All other medication was discontinued to more accurately determine the effectiveness of the Cold Light Therapy.)
Although the movement of the wall is still visible, it has been reduced by approximately 60%.
The degree of movement has improved. The horse is moving smoothly and feeding regularly on the paddock. After 3 months the treatment was stopped. This means that the therapy has a positive effect, however needs to be repeated according to the gravity of illness.

Calando, well known to all of us through competitions, had a split hoof coronet. The place of the injury was rather inaccessible, therefore operation was not possible. A very painful handicap for Calando.
Mrs Nagel was ready to immediately use the BIOPTRON treatment on the horse. He was treated twice daily for 2-6 minutes. Success was not long in coming. Calando is a show jumper again. He is still being treated to ensure continuing health.
Mrs Nagel was thrilled, so she kept the Bioptron for other applications.

A horse came off the polo field with blood dripping from its mouth. It had been hit by a mallet. Fortunately, I still have the old-style light with the detachable plug at the base and, with the cigarette lighter attachment cord, was able to treat the horse right by the truck. In half an hour it was grazing and she played it again two days later. I also used purple on a polo player who was thrown heavily and had a very painful back, with the same results - except he didn't eat grass after.

Four months after injury with a piece of wood into the pectoral muscle, the wound still showed no indication of healing. Treatment with Antibiotics, several healing salves, powders and sprays, showed no results.p>
Treatment was done with the BIOPTRON device, once daily for 6 minutes duration.
Result: After seven days the wound was dry and whitish rims were showing, indicating Epithelisation. After four weeks of daily treatment the wound was completely closed. Only a star-shaped scar without pigments remained.

Bruised sole, lameness and fetlock joint inflammation on a 10-year-old horse. (Trakehner). Bruised hoof sole since the third year, inflammation of the joint, tending to Windgall over the last 3 years. For 3 months the horse was treated twice daily, each time for 4-5 minutes, then for a further 2 weeks, once a day for 4-6 minutes. Before and after the therapy the foot was covered with remedial shoeing, but not so during the treatment, so as not to allow any other influence over the healing. Improvement was evident after 2 months, without any relapse. Today it is free of ailments, alert in training and on the paddock.
A demonstration of Bioptron on the knee of a thoroughbred injured in transit to Karaka proved quite spectacular. Light therapy was used on the badly swollen knee and at the end of the day the handler strapped the knee with padding and an elastic bandage tightly over, above and below the knee. The next day the retort from the stable was " we can't believe it - the bandage fell down overnight and the knee was back to normal !!!"

A trotter went lame, was scanned, and a hole in his tendon was found. The vet said he had to be turned out for 6-9 months. As he was 9 years old and his elderly trainer had only planned on one more season with him, he lamented that he would have to call it quits on him. I urged him to use the Bioptron. After 10 days and 5 treatments, the horse was sound. Re-scanned - the hole had closed. He's still racing two years on... always finishing at least in the middle of the field and earning enough to encourage his owner to keep him going.
