More specific applications sometimes have their own terms, for example when administered to acupuncture points, the procedure is called laser acupuncture. When applied to the head, LLLT may be known as transcranial photobiomodulation, transcranial near-infrared laser therapy (NILT), [40] or transcranial low level light therapy.
Further treatments options are phototherapy [13] [3] and infrared light therapy, [9] which both, aim to treat circadian rhythm disorders such as delayed sleep phase disorder. Especially in patients with hypersomnia, bright light therapy in the morning has been proven to be effective. [9]
Also known as low-level laser therapy (LLLT) or photobiomodulation, this non-invasive procedure involves exposing the targeted area of the body to low levels of red or near-infrared light.
Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is a form of neuromodulation that uses constant, low direct current delivered via electrodes on the head. This type of neurotherapy was originally developed to help patients with brain injuries or neuropsychiatric conditions such as major depressive disorder .
Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) is the traditional FDA-approved therapy for hair loss disorders, while LEDT has become a more advanced treatment due to its safety and efficacy. The commonly used wavelengths targeting hair loss disorder are red and infrared. [ 34 ]
Neurostimulation is the purposeful modulation of the nervous system's activity using invasive (e.g. microelectrodes) or non-invasive means (e.g. transcranial magnetic stimulation, transcranial electric stimulation such as tDCS or tACS). Neurostimulation usually refers to the electromagnetic approaches to neuromodulation.
