Abstract
Various embodiments of and methods for providing therapeutic light or electromagnetic radiation stimulation to a patient are disclosed and described. Therapeutic light stimulation is provided to a patient through a light source, and is configured to trigger or induce resonance or high amplitude oscillations in a cardiovascular system of the patient. Inducing such oscillations or resonance can aid in training autonomic reflexes and improve their functioning.
Claims20
A method of providing light stimulation therapy to a patient, comprising:
- identifying a resonance frequency of a cardiovascular system associated with the patient;
- selecting signal parameters for a light stimulation signal based on the resonance frequency of the cardiovascular system associated with the patient, wherein the signal parameters include a first time period associated with a first type of light stimulation signal, a second time period associated with a second type of light stimulation signal, and a third period that is equivalent to a combination of the first time period and the second time period and that is also equivalent to the resonance frequency of the cardiovascular system of the patient;
- and
- delivering, using a device capable of configuring light to create the first type of light stimulation signal for the first time period and the second type of light stimulation signal for the second time period, the light stimulation signal to the patient, wherein the light stimulation signal includes the first type of the light stimulation signal being successively delivered to the patient over the first time period and a second type of the light stimulation signal being delivered to the patient over the second time period, the second time period being interposed between instances of the first time period.
