We have found the greatest result with the green therapy light for working with emotional issues.
Our findings have shown us that the green light has a positive effect on the “Sympathetic Nervous System”. The sympathetic nervous system (SNS) is one of two main divisions of the autonomic nervous system (ANS). Its general action is to mobilize the body's fight-or-flight response allowing additional adrenaline is produced; it is the SNS that controls the body’s response during a perceived threat.
What we have found is that the use of the green low level light as a therapy reduces the effect that the SNS has on the body and allow the other half of the ANS to activate, the “Parasympathetic Nervous System”, allowing the rest-and-relax response to active, thus overriding the flight-or-fight response; allowing muscles to start to relax, lowering the heart rate, and allowing the pupils to constrict.
We have found that this therapy is very beneficial on humans, horses and dogs.
In our work with horses we have found the main areas that have shown the most benefit has been situations of horses that have been through the rescue process and have a feeling of abandonment or loss of the normal daily routine, the loss of a stablemate, change of ownership, and even a mare that are cycling and become difficult.
