The use of Photo Therapy in medicine has a long history. Egyptians filtered sunlight through precious gems to obtain desired colors of light with records dating back to 1550 BC detailing Photo Therapy “treatment”. Greeks built solarium cities in high mountains to harness the additional ultra-violet light available for healing.
In 1903, the second Nobel Prize in Medicine (Physiology) was awarded to Niels Ryberg Finsen, M.D., in recognition of his contribution to the treatment of diseases with concentrated light energy, “PhotoTherapy”. Dr. Finsen was recognized for opening a whole new avenue for medical science.
Today’s Photo Therapy devices are used to treat everyone from newborn infants suffering from jaundice to adults seeking relief from skin conditions.
