Solaris Light Therapy
Light therapy, also known as photo-rejuvenation, has been shown through years of research to increase ATP synthesis accelerating cellular metabolism and collagen production resulting in smoother and softer skin. The Solaris Light Therapy System provides natural relief for pain and sore muscles.
Light uses a form of energy called photons to penetrate deep into the body, easing pain and repairing damaged tissues. The Solaris Light Therapy System is a non-invasive, drug-free therapy that can be applied to meet your individual needs.
Light therapy has been shown in over 40 years of independent research worldwide to deliver powerful therapeutic benefits to living tissues and organisms. Both visible red and infrared light have been shown to effect at least 24 different positive changes at a cellular level. Visible red light at a wavelength is very beneficial in treating problems close to the surface of the skin, such as wounds, cuts, scars, and infection. Infrared light makes it effective for bones, joints, and deep muscle problems.

How Light Affects The Body
There is a large and growing body of research that reveals that the cells and molecules that make up our bodies respond directly to both electrical and light energy. Here is a quote from the article Exploring the Biology of Phototherapy by James Oschman, PhD :
"From the biology of the situation, I suggest that the immediate effect of light is on the communications pathways. Specifically, it is proposed that light stimulates the flow of solitons, which are waves of energy and information that travel rapidly through the protein fabric of the body. The flow of solitons opens gates and switches and organizes dynamic living matrix pathways. Cells can then "whisper" to each other using their own languages. These whisperings orchestrate the repair of traumas of all kinds."

Application Through Acupuncture Points
While any form of generalized stimulation can help rejuvenate the face, results are usually better when treatment is directed through acupuncture points, which are bio-electric communication gateways. Acupuncture points have the remarkable ability to energize and activate not only the local region, but to also promote balance and health through whole-body effects. We utilize a non-needle approach to acu-point stimulation using microcurrents and blue color light.
Acupuncture points exist along energetic pathways called meridians. The meridians are a subtle energy communication system that inter-connects all parts of our bodies through the connective tissue network (fascia).

Skin care has an even brighter future thanks to, of all things, "light." Not just any light, but light of a certain power and at certain wave lengths that have an effect on the body, setting off a series of cellular activities to produce a variety of results described above. Originally introduced in this country some 25 years ago and having been used in Europe for many years, Light Therapy really came into its own in the United States when NASA began doing research to improve wound healing and tissue growth in space. Many scientific studies have been conducted which have proven that light in the right wavelengths in low power doses is absorbed by the cell which prompts fibroblasts to produce collagen and elastin proteins. What this means in layman's language is that the skin is benefited by treatment with this type of light.

In contrast to high power lasers which are used for surgery or "peels" this low power light treatment stimulates the cells and thus creates the benefit referred to earlier. Typically light in the red and near-infrared (invisible light) spectrum are used for treating aging, photo-damaged or blotchy skin and tissue regeneration.

This light therapy is referred to by several terms, including photo modulation, cold light, photo rejuvenation, and low power light therapy.
Light Therapy is safe when applied properly and has no feeling except a very mild warmth with those devices that have a more powerful light source. Typically the light source for low power light therapy is "Light Emitting Diodes" known as LEDs. This is the same technology commonly used to light readouts on appliances and car dash boards.
