5. ❖ People with early-onset Alzheimer's develop
symptoms in their 40s and 50s.
❖ 5% of people who develop dementia do so before
age 65
❖ When dementia begins in middle age,
misdiagnosis may be more likely.
❖ This rare form of dementia affects work, finances
and family.
EARLY ONSET DEMENTIA
5

6. ❖ Some cases are familial – that means the cause has a genetic
predisposition
❖ Chronic alcohol or drug use
❖ Brain injury / repeated concussions
❖ Chronic stress
❖ Other neurodegenerative illness – AD, PD, HD
❖ Infections – tick bites, STI, HIV, gingivitis
❖ The wrong kind of light: Overexposure to blue light – in the
form of smart TV’s, computer and cell phone screens, non-
native EMF
❖ Lack of exposure to ‘good’ light sources – like morning
sunshine!
❖ Pro-inflammatory diet (processed foods, high omega 6)

ONSET DEMENTIA

DEMENTIA – THE EARLY SIGNS - WHAT DO YOU
RECOGNIZE?

8. In the U.S.A 5.6 million people age 65+ HAVE dementia - and
approximately 200,000 individuals under 65 have early-onset
Alzheimer's
1 in 3 Seniors in the United States die from Alzheimer's or another form of dementia.

9. THE CURRENT
TREATMENT (NOT
MUCH)
There is no cure and no DRUG
treatment that slows or stops
progression. There are drug
treatments that may
temporarily improve
symptoms.
❖ headache,
❖ generalized pain,
❖ fatigue,
❖ dizziness,
❖ nausea,
❖ vomiting,
❖ diarrhea,
❖ loss of appetite,
❖ weight loss,
❖ muscle cramping,
❖ joint pain,
❖ insomnia,
❖ increased frequency of urination.
❖ seizures,
❖ fainting, abnormal heart beats
❖ stomach ulcers.
Rivastigmine and Donepezil are cholinesterase inhibitors
(CHEIs) that may improve cognition, global function, and
activities of living. They are not always well tolerated and
do have side effects including:

WHAT IS THE SOLUTION TO THE DEMENTIA CRISIS?
PBM – PHOTOBIOMODULATION - pulsed light
medical technology conducted with red or near-
infrared (NIR) light (600–1100 nm)

11. 11
❖ In 1903 physician Niels Ryberg Finsen won the Nobel Prize in Medicine for his
successful treatment of smallpox and lupus with red light.
❖ In 1960 the first laser was developed and documented accelerated healing in
1967.
❖ By the early 1970's, laser therapy was recognized as a physical therapy
modality in Eastern Europe, the Soviet Union, and China.
❖ First appearance of laser therapy in the United States in 1977.
❖ 2000 NASA Space Technology Shines Light on Healing.
❖ 2002 FDA light therapy has widespread scientific and evidence-based
acceptance.
❖ 2019 advances in the technology of the equipment utilized to deliver it.
❖ Neurocare Systems the largest manufacturer of FDA cleared medical LED light
therapy systems.
❖ Unique modular system to allow brain and body stimulation.
❖ Synergistic effect of pain relief, increased energy and brain healing for a truly
holistic approach to dementia.
HISTORY OF PHOTOBIOMODULATION

12. ❖ FDA approved for chronic joint pain, increased blood
flow and reduction of inflammation, wound healing,
hair loss and skin conditions like acne.
❖ It is widely used in hospitals to treat jaundice in
newborn babies.
❖ Latest research now shows it is effective for
improving the systems of brain disorders including
dementia.
❖ There are now more than 4,000 peer-reviewed
scientific studies detailing the health benefits of PBM

CURRENT STATUS OF PBM IN U.S.A

13. CURRENT RESEARCH
13
Harvard Researchers at the VA
Boston Healthcare System are
testing the effects of light
therapy on brain function in
Veterans with Gulf War Illness.
The medicine of the future.
Leading expert says:
“In the next few years, every
home with have one more maybe
two light therapy devices”
Dr, Michael Hamblin, Harvard
University

14. CTE in football
players
Larry Carr- A former BYU
linebacker suffering from
CTE – no treatment helped
and he became suicidal
before finding PBM
footballandthebrain.com
“It’s groundbreaking, there’s no other
word to describe it,” he says. “It just
seems to reset the brain. The only side
effect is I’m stronger and in better shape
than I’ve ever been.”

16. PBM Works At 3 Levels:
16
HOW DOES PBM WORK?
1. Molecular level - mitochondria, ATP, chromophores
2. Cellular level - reduced inflammation and increased circulation
3. Tissue level - pain relief, hair growth, nerve repair, wound
healing, improved brain function

17. ❖ Mitochondria are where the cell generates energy.
❖ They are most concentrated in the brain, heart, liver, skin,
muscles.
❖ They contain chemicals that act as light receptors - such
as the protein complex Cytochrome c oxidase

PBM AND THE MITOCHONDRIA - THE CELLS POWERHOUSE

19. 19

20. ❖ Red and Near InfraRed light stimulates the release of
adenosine triphosphate (ATP).
❖ ATP is the major carrier of energy to all cells.
❖ Increases in ATP allow cells to accept nutrients faster and
get rid of waste products faster by increasing the energy
level in the cell.
❖ The increase in ATP comes from the absorption of light by
the protein complex Cytochrome C Oxidase.
INCREASED ATP IN THE MITOCHONDRIA
LEADS TO ENERGY PRODUCTION
20

21. INCREASED CIRCULATION
PBM causes vasodilation and increases blood flow (circulation) to nerves, muscles and organs
including the brain
❖ Dilates existing blood vessels
❖ Increases formation of NEW capillaries.
❖ Increases NUTRIENT transport to all tissues.
❖ Increases lymphatic system activity
❖ Increased transport of OXYGEN to the cells
❖ Decrease in blood pressure
❖ REMOVAL of waste products
❖ Stimulate the production of collagen essential for repairing
damaged tissue

25. ❖ Shining Red light and Near InfraRed light onto cells
seems to create a short, low-dose metabolic stress
that builds up the anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant and
cell defense systems of the cell.
❖ This makes the body stronger and more resilient.
ADDITIONAL EFFECTS
RESILIENCE
25

26. FOR THE
PREVENTATIVE
PROGRAM - PBM IS
APPLIED THREE TIMES
PER WEEK TO THE
HEAD AREA.
Near-infrared (NIR) light exerts a protective effect
on neurons:
1. The direct action of NIR light on the cells,
improving mitochondrial function, reducing
inflammation, and helping the brain to repair
itself.
2. NIR can trigger a systemic response
involving circulating molecules such as
stimulation of immune cells which protect the
brain, plus a reduction in neuroinflammation
3. Stimulation of bone-marrow-derived stem
cells
PREVENTION PROGRAM - BRAIN
HEALTH

27. 27
❖ Mitochondria produce more energy.
❖ Decreased neuroinflammation.
❖ Increased resiliency by applying a very low level stressor that the body can
adjust to (hormesis).
❖ Epigenetic changes so better proteins are produced and over production of
damaging proteins halted
❖ Increased circulation of blood flow

Summary of the effects of PBM on the brain.

28. PAIN REDUCTION
❖ Depression and anxiety are heightened when physical pain
is present.
❖ Reducing pain has a huge effect on the quality of life.
❖ Red light reduces pain and inflammation in the body at the
same time as the Near InfraRed is healing the brain.
❖ Using this therapy, we can address multiple health issues at
the same time - improving health outcomes significantly.

34. 34
SIMPLE PROTOCOL
❖ The therapy will be administered at the clinic.
❖ The LED pads are placed on 4 areas and must be in
contact with the skin:
Head top of spine
Gut/abdomen
Over shin bones
❖ The controller is turn on to a set frequency for a duration
of 20 minutes per session.
❖ The sessions are 3 times per week in clinic and as much
as 7 days 2 twice a day for home use (excluding brain
care)

35. The therapy is painless and comfortable.
You will be seated, and light pads will be placed over your
head and shins. The lights will be on for around 20 mins
per session. You will see the red light, but infrared light is
invisible to the human eye
❖ Pain relief
❖ Better sleep
❖ Better memory
❖ Clearer thinking
❖ Feeling relaxed
❖ More energy
❖ Mood changes – to feel some resistance to change is normal!
WHAT TO EXPECT DURING THE THERAPY SESSIONS
35

36. Is it safe?
Yes, there are no known side effects of PBM.
When will it be recognized by the FDA as a treatment?
Studies are underway at this time to present the evidence.
Can it prevent symptoms of dementia as well as resolve symptoms?
Yes – evidence shows PBM can support brain health and so it may prevent
neurodegeneration.
How often should the light therapy be applied
For at least 20 mins three times a week.
36
FAQ

37. ❖ Everyone is different.
❖ Improvements in symptoms usually noticeable after 4 weeks.
❖ Significant improvement after 6 weeks.
❖ With continued therapy there can be a reversal of some
symptoms.

changes.
HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO SEE IMPROVEMENTS
37

38. 38
❖ With increased wellness comes responsibility.
❖ Previous coping mechanisms may no longer serve.
❖ Get support!
❖ Bodywork, chiropractic, counseling for both caregiver and
patient – be gentle on yourself and your loved ones.
