BioLight Therapy
BioLight Therapy produces a cascade of cellular activity and dramatically increases metabolism which facilitates the appropriate healing response and reduces recovery time.
Why choose BioLight Therapy?
REDUCES PAIN: Generates energy that stimulates vasodilation, tissue oxygenation, and the body’s natural analgesic mechanisms resulting in pain reduction.
REDUCES RECOVERY TIME: Stimulates tissue granulation and connective tissue projections; part of the healing process of wounds or inflamed tissue.
REDUCES INFLAMMATION: Stimulates the lymphatic system to remove waste products and cellular debris from the treated area.
INCREASES VITAL ENERGY: Accelerates energy production at the cellular level by activating the cell’s powerhouse (mitochondria) to increase production of ATP (ATP is the main source of energy for cellular processes).
INCREASES TISSUE STRENGTH: Stimulates collagen synthesis and fibroblast activity for increased tissue strength. Studies show that injured tissue treated with infrared light are much stronger after recovery than with natural healing alone.
INCREASES CIRCULATION: Causes increased production of nitric oxide (NO) which creates a non-thermal vasodilation (increase of blood flow) of capillaries in the treatment area.
Initial Consultation Required
An initial consultation with one of our doctors is required to evaluate your case and determine if you are a good candidate for BioLight Therapy.

Common Questions Regarding BioLight Therapy
+ How does BioLight Therapy work?
BioLight Therapy utilizes 21 different wavelength settings to help treat a wide variety of symptoms and conditions. In this therapy, a light source is placed near the skin, allowing the light energy (photons) to penetrate tissue where it interacts with chromophores located in cells, resulting in photophysical and photochemical changes that lead to alterations at the molecular, cellular and tissue levels of the body. Light induces a complex chain of physiological reactions in diseased and damaged tissues to accelerate wound healing and tissue regeneration, increase circulation, reduce acute inflammation, reduce acute and chronic pain and help restore normal cellular function. Interestingly, recent research indicates that light can enhance performance in normal tissues and cells.
+ How many visits will I need?
Each case is individually evaluated to determine the best treatment plan. The more severe or chronic the case, the more treatments it will take to reach the desired goal. As with any type of therapy, deviating away from the treatment plan often leads to a delayed healing response; therefore, it is extremely important to reserve the time and continue the consistent care to optimize vitality.
For patients that come in for preventative care or have reached their level of optimal vitality, it is highly encouraged to schedule monthly maintenance visits, aka tune-ups, to help keep the body strong and vibrant.
We strive to improve the quality of life for each and every patient we see.
+ Is this procedure painful?
This procedure is non-invasive and painless. We treat many pediatric conditions and sports injury cases, along with a variety of other conditions using this therapy. The treatment is relaxing and effective.
+ Is this procedure covered by insurance?
As of December 1, 2020, both Dr. Shivali Panchal Gruer and Dr. Dimitri Gruer are out-of-network providers. FSA and HSA wellness cards are accepted at OC Vitality.
