Description

  Meridian light therapy device using a three-wavelength fluorescent lamp {Light Therapeutic Device using Three Wave Lamp on Meridian}

 The present invention relates to a meridian light therapy device using a three-wavelength fluorescent lamp that emits visible light (380 nm ~ 780 nm) of a composite wavelength, and more particularly, acupuncture points and acupuncture points and a plurality of acupuncture points in the meridians passing through the human symptom. Self-treatment of skin diseases such as atopic psoriasis accompanied by muscle consolidation, respiratory diseases such as cold and sinusitis, chronic fatigue, muscle pain, and improvement of general condition by irradiating the light of visible light that cut off direct heat from the light source Meridian light therapy device using a three-wavelength fluorescent lamp to prevent.

Light therapy is the use of light to treat and prevent diseases. The use of artificial light sources has been gradually developed through the use of sunlight to treat diseases, mainly in the ultraviolet, visible and infrared regions. Was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology in 1903 for the medical application of light therapy.

Ultraviolet rays are mainly used for sunburn treatment of skin diseases such as psoriasis, atopic dermatitis, alum, hand eczema, and melanin pigment in the wavelength range of 10nm ~ 380nm. Infrared rays have a wavelength range of 780nm ~ 15,000nm. It is mainly used for muscle relaxation, muscle pain, pain relief, blood circulation, and waste removal.

Visible light has a wavelength range of 380nm to 780nm, and consists of several monochromatic lights (red and orange wave beams) according to the wavelength. Each monochromatic light is used for treatment. In Document 2, "Analysis of the wavelength of visible rays and the components of carbon rods using carbon rods", "Visible rays do not concentrate on eliminating the problem of lesions such as ultraviolet rays and infrared rays, but rather enhance the body's immunity or facilitate energy flow. It helps to heal itself. '

Representative mechanisms for the effects of visible light are photoreceptorism in cellular tissues, where photoreceptors are present at the molecular biological level and when they are stimulated by external visible light, they produce large amounts of biological responses, DNA / RNA synthesis, cAMP proteins and collagen synthesis. The increase and the proliferation of cells result in rapid growth, healing and normalization of damaged tissues. The mechanism of visible light is to enhance the immune system of the whole body and smooth the energy flow. It is also linked to the effects that help heal.

 Light sources used for phototherapy include He-Ne lasers, semiconductor lasers, metal halide lamps, composition gas discharge lamps, general lamps, and xenon chloride excimer discharge lamps.

In the present invention uses a three-wavelength fluorescent lamp that emits visible light (380nm ~ 780nm) of the composite wavelength A three-wavelength fluorescent lamp combines blue, green, and red light with narrow wavelengths, which is more efficient than incandescent lamps and emits white light that solves the shortcomings of non-natural light such as fluorescent lamps, which peaked at 254 nm by Verstergen in 1974. With the announcement, it was commercialized in Europe and Japan.

 The site of oriental medical treatment such as acupuncture is acupuncture points and acupuncture points, and the treatment area at TFT is also targeted at acupuncture points and acupuncture points. In other words, acupuncture points in the TFT on the acupuncture and moxibustion are acupuncture points on the meridians. The role of meridians and acupoints is very important in the treatment and prevention of diseases.

 The method of treating and preventing diseases by stimulating menstrual blood and smoothing the flow of qi in the meridians has been used since ancient times. Recently, a method of using non-invasive light instead of saliva as a stimulation method has been studied and clinically It is also used in Korea, and 'Development of Laser Acupuncture Therapy Device with Complementary Technology' was selected as '2007 New Herbal Treatment Technology R & D Project of Korea Institute of Health Industry'.

As described above, even in the therapy using light, acupuncture points are an important object in addition to the light irradiated site, as well as a simple symptom site or a painful site.

In addition, in oriental medicine, acupuncture is important along with acupoints. Pectoral muscle is a general term of the body surface muscle system distributed on the circumferential region of the twelve jugular and is a method of classifying the body surface muscle of the whole body based on the circumferential region of the twelve jugular. In other words It refers to the muscles in the area where the meridians travel, and in most cases it is formed along the paths of the meridians.

In clinical trials, psychosomatic and physical symptoms are often accompanied by muscles on the meridians, such as rigid stiffness and pain tenderness in the meridians. Such tenderness tendencies are formed along the meridians. For example, in many cases of psycho-emotional symptoms, muscles of the neck, including thoracic vertebral muscles, are hardened along the muscle texture, and the muscles of the chest are partially hardened, and the area under the collarbone adjacent to the sternum is severely hardened. Many of these areas are formed in the meridians. The treatments to release these injured areas are closely related to the improvement of symptoms.

Various treatments are used for relaxation and pain relief of stiff muscles. Phototherapy is one of them, and the wavelength of light used is not only infrared but also complex wavelength visible light. Infrared light is described as relaxation of muscle tissue due to temperature rise of somatic cells at the time of irradiation, but in the case of visible light, photoreceptor in cell tissue and

This can be explained by the effect that helps the body heal itself by strengthening the immunity of the whole body or smoothing the energy flow. In addition, in the case of visible light, there is no thermal reaction, so another mechanism is considered to have an effect in the clinical practice. Therefore, other mechanisms should be studied continuously.

Clinical examples of relaxation and pain reduction of consolidated muscles using visible light are as follows.

(Example 1) A woman in her late 20's, when standing or sitting, has left waist stiff and painful symptoms last for about 3 weeks.The muscles on the left side of the vertebrae become very firmly parallel to the right side of the spine, facilitating the painful areas of the lower back. In this state, the meridian light therapy device is put on a thin white cloth and placed on it, parallel to the vertebrae along the meridians of the back pain area, lying down for about an hour, so the pain disappears and muscles are remarkably released.

(Example 2) Male junior high school student, 1 week ago, the right leg hip joint hurts or walks on both legs incorrectly, the middle and lateral muscles of the thigh are hardened during palpation. According to the long up and down attachment, after 1 hour of irradiation, the pain was greatly reduced, and after another 1 hour after irradiation, there was only a slight pain, and after 1 hour after the irradiation, the pain disappeared.

In addition, in Korean medicine, acupuncture points on multiple acupuncture points on the meridians passing through the symptom area to enhance the treatment effect are the same as in the case of phototherapy such as laser needles.

It is more effective to irradiate multiple menstrual blood simultaneously than to examine only one menstrual blood.

 When psychosomatic physical symptoms are accompanied by muscle stiffness, pain tenderness, etc., these tenderness areas are formed along the meridians, so the method of irradiating light in parallel along the meridians is a significant treatment method. The meridian multiple acupuncture points can be irradiated at the same time to increase the therapeutic effect, it is more effective in relieving the symptoms by releasing the muscles around the meridian.

Ultraviolet rays are mainly used for skin diseases, which have side effects such as DNA damage, which can cause cancer in severe cases, and infrared rays cause heat effects on the surface of the body, and repeated exposure can cause side effects such as burns and dry cracking. It may also occur. On the other hand, in the case of the visible light region, the output is harmless to the human body if the output is not damaging to the skin, and even if it is used for a long time, It is known that there are no side effects. In the conventional phototherapy device using visible light, there are many examples of using specific wavelengths for treatment by color, but when using white light in the visible light region (380nm to 780nm) of complex wavelength blocking heat. Is rare.

In addition, the conventional phototherapy device using the infrared or ultraviolet region of far infrared rays, near infrared rays is difficult to obtain by the public because the light source is expensive, and the wavelength and output irradiation time must be adjusted properly. There are disadvantages.

Therefore, in the case of skin diseases such as atopy or psoriasis and other diseases, ultraviolet rays or infrared rays have been conventionally used, but there are side effects of cancer and drying of skin tissue depending on the output and irradiation time. Therefore, visible rays are used when the same effect can be obtained. It is more preferable to use a three-wavelength fluorescent lamp as a light source, it is easy to obtain, inexpensive, and the device has a simple advantage.

The three-wavelength fluorescent lamp is a lamp that greatly improves the unnatural color rendering of the conventional fluorescent lamp (fluorescent lamp), and through the improvement of the raw material of the fluorescent material, the three primary colors of light among the spectrum of visible light (380nm to 780nm) are blue, By reinforcing the green and red spectrums, high color rendering can be achieved, faithful to color expression, prevention of eye fatigue due to color development, and prevention of astigmatism. In addition, it is brighter than the existing fluorescent lamp of the same standard, but has an advantage of excellent power consumption rate and three times longer life.

Visible light emitted from the three-wavelength fluorescent lamp used in the present invention is not a focused light like laser light, but also a form of a complex wavelength range (380nm ~ 780nm), not a form of polarized light, but can be effective in various diseases And clinically confirmed.

In addition, in the case of high power in the conventional treatment device, the local area should be irradiated for a short time due to fear of skin damage, and even when the light emitting part is in contact with the skin at low power for a long time, there is a fear of burn due to direct heat of the light source. Therefore, a light source that can be irradiated for a long time and a wide enough range to produce an effect that does not cause damage to the skin tissue, and a method that can block direct heat from the light source.

 In the case of a three-wavelength fluorescent lamp that emits visible light of complex wavelengths, if the direct heat from the light source is blocked, the light output is not enough to cause damage to the skin. You can investigate.

In the conventional phototherapy, the range of irradiation was mostly limited to the symptomed area, and the laser needle was also used for acupuncture points with acupuncture points or plural points. However, it is very rare to survey each segment in one unit with multiple acupuncture points in the meridians or parallel to the meridians.

In order to release the muscles in the running area of the meridians due to the stiffness and tenderness of pain, the size of the unit can be examined in parallel and along each symptom of the symptomatic pain. A rectangular light emitting part that satisfies is required.

In addition, the method of investigating each acupuncture points has a disadvantage in that it is difficult to accurately locate the points without specialized knowledge about the location of the acupuncture points. Can also be used easily.

In addition, the conventional treatment device is difficult to move or carry because of its large size, and treatment can be performed only at a specific place equipped with a treatment device, and when used in a public place, it may be used by several people, thereby causing a problem of infection.

In addition, even in the case of a portable light therapy device, the conventional treatment device has to be irradiated with a light emitting part by hand, and thus there is an inconvenience in that it is not possible to perform any other work.

Therefore, the treatment device needs to have a size and shape that is easy to carry and move, and does not need to be always held by hand.

The present invention is to solve the above problems and to solve each problem by the following method.

When irradiating the wavelength of light with high power or for a long time, it uses visible light without side effects, not ultraviolet ray or infrared area with side effects, and also uses a three-wavelength fluorescent lamp that emits white light in the visible light region (380nm ~ 780nm) of composite wavelength. It was. This has the advantage of making the associated device simple and easy to obtain parts, making it inexpensive.

 Currently, there are many light sources that emit visible light of complex wavelengths. Among them, white LEDs and three wavelength fluorescent lamps are inexpensive and easily available. In the case of white LEDs, each LED is very inexpensive, but since the rectangular light emitting unit of each section length requires 300 to 400 LEDs, the overall unit price increases. However, the light therapy device using the three-wavelength fluorescent lamp has the same effect as the light therapy device using the white LED in the clinical, but the price is relatively very low, there is a big advantage.

Using a double transparent filter that blocks direct heat from the lamp and the light source, the output will not damage the skin tissue for a sufficient range and time to be effective in contact with the skin or as close as possible. You can investigate.

In addition, the visible light can be irradiated in parallel along the meridians and the roots, and a rectangular light emitting unit having a size corresponding to each section (arm, chest, belly, waist, etc.) is used to improve the therapeutic effect than conventional local irradiation. It is also easy to use even the general public without the expertise.

It can also be treated by direct contact with the skin or by wearing it in a thin white coat, while using a double transparent filter Blocking direct heat Therefore, it is possible to prevent skin damage or burns caused by heat.

Since the light therapy device is large enough to be held in one hand and irradiated on the symptom site, it is possible to treat it at home or anywhere with a 220V power source. In addition, the meridian therapist is attached to the leg, arm, chest, stomach, lower back, and other symptoms such as studying, reading books, watching TV, etc. Removable rubber band is attached.

According to the present invention as described above, by using a rectangular light emitting part of each section unit length can be irradiated with light of the compound wavelength visible light of the complex wavelength blocking the heat to a plurality of acupuncture points in parallel and meridians along the meridians and meridian. Improvement of respiratory diseases such as psoriasis and atopic disease, cold and sinusitis, chronic fatigue, myalgia, and general condition Effective treatment and prevention of the back can be effective.

In addition, it is easy to carry, so 220v power can be used wherever you need it wherever you need it. It is effective to do the same things (reading, watching TV, writing, studying, etc.) while being treated at the same time.
