## Abstract

A pain relief device and process or system to aid in the resolution of or otherwise treat pain in a body of a human or animal including at least one layer of PVDF film. An EL platform light therapy device is described which includes a layer of PVDF film and may also include a vibration element as well as at least one noise generator. An advanced modulated multi-mode red light device is also described here having an EL inverter (which can be sound generated), an EL panel (which can be sound generated), a magnetic strip field modulation, a double stick tape field distribution, a PVDF or tri-polymer resonance drive, and a three layer red filter wave generator. Shoe insert uses are also described along with alternative devices with EL tape as another improvement used in various alternatives, which may also include an inverter.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A device for pain relief:
a first layer forming a base of PVDF film, and
an EL platform therapy source wherein the EL light is transmitted in association with said first layer toward a human body and enhanced by said PVDF film.

### Claim 2 (depends on 1)

A device as set forth in claim 1 wherein said device is disposed in a flexible package.

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

A device as set forth in claim 1 wherein said device is disposed in a package that can be configured to come into contact with the outer skin of said human body.

### Claim 4 (depends on 1)

A device as set forth in claim 1 wherein the PVDF film is integrated with a package configured to place the PVDF film in a location defined by inflammatory pain emanating from a human body.

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

A device as set forth in claim 1 wherein the PVDF film is integrated with a package capable of placing the composite in a location defined by inflammatory pain emanating from an animal.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

A device as set forth in claim 1 wherein said PVDF film includes a layer of sputtered silver.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

A device as set forth in claim 1 wherein said device is disposed in a package to be held in place and directed to a source of inflammatory pain.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

A device as set forth in claim 1 configured for placement at an acupuncture meridian for treatment.

### Claim 9 (depends on 1)

A device as set forth in claim 1 wherein said EL platform is a non-diode light generator.

### Claim 10 (depends on 1)

A device as set forth in claim 1, wherein said EL platform includes an electronic sound generator when energized.

### Claim 11 (depends on 1)

A device as set forth in claim 1 further comprising an EL platform including an inverter.

### Claim 12 (depends on 11)

A device as set forth in claim 11 wherein the inverter is an electrical noise generator.

### Claim 13 (depends on 1)

A device as set forth in claim 1 further comprising a vibration motor.

### Claim 14 (depends on 1)

A device as set forth in claim 1 further comprising a mechanism for vibration therapy added to the device.

### Claim 15

A method for pain relief from a therapy device, the device comprising a first layer of a PVDF film; and a second disposed on said first layer including an EL platform including the steps of placement of the layers adjacent on another and then packaging the layers to be covered in association with a human body.

### Claim 16 (depends on 1)

A product for use for pain relief comprised of layers of materials as described above in claim 1 to provide a near field accelerator.

### Claim 17

A device for use in relief of inflammatory pain comprised of at least one layer of PVDF film and at least one EL platform.
