About This Event
Endre Mester, a Hungarian medical doctor pioneered the therapeutic use of low powered lasers for healing wounds and other conditions in the 1960s. Dr. Mester was the first to observe that light not only had a direct therapeutic effect on cells and tissues but also had remote or systemic benefits on adjacent tissues that did not directly absorb light. Most PBMT research focuses on the direct healing benefits where light is absorbed by affected tissues. Recent positive clinical results on neurological and other conditions not directly accessible to light has put the spotlight on the remote effects of PBMT. One such benefit of remote PBMT is encouraging neuroplasticity which may assist in reducing symptoms and recovery from conditions like post-concussion syndrome and neurodegenerative and other diseases and injuries.
The recent passing of BIOFLEX founder Dr. Fred Kahn has left a legacy of his pioneering clinical and research success in low intensity laser therapy now known as photobiomodulation therapy that highlighted these aforementioned positive remote effects on neuroplasticity and neurological conditions.BIOFLEX welcomes Dr. Norman Doidge, psychiatrist, neuroplasticity expert and NY Times bestseller for an in-depth interview and discussion on neuroplasticity and the therapies that may benefit patients recovering from neurological injuries and diseasesincluding BIOFLEX Laser Therapy.
BIOFLEX practitioner and clinical neurologist Dr. Ashleigh Bhanjan (Life Entabeni Hospital, Durban) is pioneering the use of BioFlex PBMT in South Africa for neurological conditions and will update us on his clinical successes related to transcranial PBMT and its role in neuroinflammation. Other keynote speakers include Dr. Daniel Johnstone (Sydney, Australia) who will present his latest research on remote photobiomodulation and Dr. Ryan D’Arcy, neuroscientist at Simon Fraser University who will discuss concussions and recovery from brain injuries.
Please join these and many other expert speakers for a unique opportunity to listen and interact live with leading experts in photobiomodulation and neuroplasticity in an all-day dynamic discussion. This event will be hosted live on Zoom on Saturday June 11, 2022.
