The following steps should be followed to ensure optimal results from a light treatment:

• Ensure that the area of skin to be treated is clean. This is especially important while doing treatments for skin complaints. The nature of polarised light is such that it allows whatever is on the skin to penetrate deeper into it. If this is dirt, then this is not a good thing.



• Next you can apply the Oxy Spray which will hydrate and oxygenate the skin.



• Position the Bioptron at a right angle to the surface you wish to treat and turn it on.



• Once the Oxy Spray has been absorbed, you may apply any other product you wish to use.



• As general guidelines there is no additional benefit if the plain light is applied for longer than 8 minutes to one spot. It is mor e beneficial to use the light more than once a day, rather than for a prolonged period all at once. The body needs some time to use the benefits that the light has provided, and it can only untilize a set amount of help, everything else just goes to waste. Thus giving the body a boost more often gives greater benefits.



• Do not use the colour therapy for more than 2 minutes on any one spot, unless instructed by the Bioptron colour therapy book or by a qualified colour therapist.



• When using a colour therapy treatment which involves both sides of the body, always treat the left side first. This helps the body take in the effect of the therapy more efficiently.



• You must attempt to have a positive attitude towards your problem and most importantly you must believe that this therapy is going to help you recover.
