Avalon Light Therapy, which uses a combination of blue red and infrared led lights to assist healing of the body, and homeopathy, are discussed with Dr. John Ritz. From Wikipedia: "Light therapy or phototherapy (classically referred to as heliotherapy) consists of exposure to daylight or to specific wavelengths of light using lasers, light-emitting diodes, fluorescent lamps, dichroic lamps or very bright, full-spectrum light, usually controlled with various devices. The light is administered for a prescribed amount of time and, in some cases, at a specific time of day. Common use of the term is associated with the treatment of skin disorders (chiefly psoriasis), sleep disorder and some psychiatric disorders. Light therapy directed at the skin is also used to treat acne vulgaris, eczema and neonatal jaundice. Light therapy which strikes the retina of the eyes is used to treat circadian rhythm disorders such as delayed sleep phase syndrome and can also be used to treat seasonal affective disorder, with some support for its use also with non-seasonal psychiatric disorders." Ritz is a Naturopathic Doctor based in Lebanon, CT. Hosted by Pete Bianco on WHCL, out of Hamilton College, Clinton, NY.
