Pulsing in PBMs

Pulsing light is a key factor in photobiomodulation (PBM), alongside optimal wavelengths and proper dosage. At BioPhotonica, we combine these three elements for enhanced therapeutic outcomes. While some devices emphasize dosage over pulsing (delivering <4 joules per session), others, particularly those inspired by acupuncture, prioritize pulsing. These low-dose, high-pulse modalities often deliver impressive results, especially in complex cases.

Pulsing Styles

Classical

Based on foundational work by pioneers like Bahr, Nogier, Fuchtenbusch, Solfeggio, and Schumann.

Modern

Developed with practitioners; notable contributions from Dr. Rick Amy and Dr. Rurucha.

BioPhotonica supports both approaches in its workflow. Research shows that healthy and unhealthy cells resonate at different frequencies. Similar to PEMF therapy, pulsed light may disrupt pathogens while supporting healing.

Pulsing Modes in the ReGen Pod

Basic Pulsing

All four wavelengths pulse at the same frequency.

Harmonic Pulsing

Different wavelengths have distinct, synchronized frequencies (e.g., 5, 10, 15, 20 Hz).

Light Fields

Complex, layered frequency patterns (e.g., 10 Hz, 385 Hz, 3632 Hz, 4625 Hz) as per Fuchtenbusch’s “Laser Field Therapy.”

These modes can be executed in fixed or sweeping formats, and combined in multi-step programs.

What the Research Says

A meta‑analysis (Hashmi et al.) suggests pulsed light may be superior to continuous-wave light, though there is no standardized optimal frequency yet. As PBM science evolves, the ReGen Pod can receive overnight updates, keeping it at the cutting edge.

Classic Pulsing Examples

Pattern

Description

Schumann 7.83 Hz

A universal earth resonance, fixed pulsing across wavelengths.

Nogier E (4 672 Hz)

High‑octave frequency for nerve resonance, fixed.

Theta Sweep (5‑8 Hz)

Mimics sleep brain waves, frequencies sweep quarter‑cycle per wavelength.

Nogier 2.28 Hz

Targets mesoderm, digestion, and parasympathetic tone, fixed frequency.

Fi Band Sweep

Harmonic sweep per Fuchtenbusch: 8, 442, 741, 222 Hz.

Safety & Duty Cycle

Safety For Light‑Sensitive Users

Visible red light below 60 Hz is disabled in public/unscreened environments; IR wavelengths remain unaffected.

Duty Cycle Control

Users set ON/OFF time ratios. E.g., 85 % duty cycle delivers 85 % of continuous dosage, useful for diagnostics or resonance profiling.

Custom Presets & Programs

REGEN RED offers:

  • Unlimited custom pulsing presets (choose frequency, duty cycle, sweep).
  • Ability to group presets into multi-step programs with descriptive names.
  • Built-in classical library and an App‑Store for modern protocols.
  • Continuous program refinement via user feedback and internal analytics.

This flexible architecture makes it a top-tier PBM platform for clinics, wellness centers, and practitioners.
