Suggested Treatment Protocols
                                 

Healthlight is often utilized to alleviate the painful symptoms often associated with neuropathy and chronic wounds in the professional or clinical setting. The unique Healthlight podiatric boot pads are applied covering the entire foot and ankle, and the universal/standard pads are applied to each calf.

Typically, one or both lower extremities are treated for 30-45 minutes three times a week for approximately 12 treatments in a month.

However, the 3 time-a-week protocol has actually developed to accomodate the Medicare and insurance reimbursement parameters that most patients are financially contrained to in an outpatient setting.

In reality, the Healthlight Infrared Therapy system can safely be used on a daily basis on nearly every patient for neuropathy, wound healing, or chronic pain. This makes Healthlight the most affordable and ideal system for not just an outpatient clinic, but for long term care, and home health visiting nurses and therapy providers.

The Healthlight therapeutic pads may be applied directly to the foot, leg, ulceration, or other area to be treated with a thin covering of transparent plastic. During the first weeks of therapy rapid improvement can occur. Some patients may experience positive results and pain relief as soon as the the first or second treatment session.

Around the 2nd month of treatments, improvement levels may slow down. However, wound healing can remain steady, and closure of the wound can often occur during the 2nd or 3rd months. Even faster healing may be realized with a venous stasis ulcer patient receiving a combination of infrared treatements and consistent compression therapy.

Initially some patients may experience temporary discomfort that is caused by the nerves and the microvascular system beginning to heal and regaine some of the sensation of which they had previously lost.

After the treatment sessions, patients can purchase a Healthlight home unit which they may use once or twice a day as needed.

Results will vary due to the individual physiology of each patient.
