A Half Century Of Research
Light Therapy Success Is Well Documented
Over 55 Years of Photon Therapy Research Reveals Remarkable, Consistent Results
The efficacy of Photon Therapy has been well documented since its discovery in 1955. Below are just a few of the articles and papers published on Photon Therapy as a viable treatment modality for various conditions. Key findings in a study published by NASA in 2001 stated that:
“LED produced in vitro increases of cell growth of 155-171% of normal human epithelial cells.”
“LED produced improvement of greater than 40% in musculoskeletal training injuries in Navy SEAL team members, and decreased wound healing time in crew members aboard a U.S. Naval submarine.”
“LED produced a 47% reduction in pain of children suffering from oral mucositis.”
Overall NASA Concluded:
“We believe that the use of NASA LED for light therapy alone, and in conjunction with hyperbaric oxygen, will greatly enhance the natural wound healing process, and more quickly return the patient to a preinjury/illness level of activity.”
Photon Therapy is not new. The barrier to widespread use has been the lack of a device that is both powerful enough for fast results and affordable – until now.
Advances in Pain Management with Light Therapy
by Len Saputo, MD, with Jerry Stine, NC
The 2019 Townsend Letter documents Dr. Len Saputo’s work with Firefly inventor, Maurice Bales stating, “It is increasingly clear that Photobiomodulation (PBM) can provide highly effective treatment for a wide range of painful conditions that previously had few, if any, effective treatment options. PBM is also safe, affordable, and available.
Cognitive Decline Trial Shows Promising Results
In 2019 Dr. Suzan Syed and I conducted a small study on patients diagnosed with cognitive decline in 2019-2020. With dementia affecting 5.7 million Americans and over 50 million people globally, we wanted to know first hand if our light therapy could help. This was a small study with patients who had a definitive diagnosis of Dementia from their neurologist.
Patients were evaluated with the F-Scan to determine frequencies that were sensitive. The frequency found most sensitive was then programmed into a function generator. The function
generator was set to input frequency information (sinusoidal waveform, 5V peak-peak) into the Bales Photonics Firefly Clinic Pro using 37,700 mW intensity. Subjects received 10 treatments for 10 minutes over the course of 4 weeks with a minimum of 2 treatments per week using their unique frequency.
Nine subjects completed the pilot study. The average Mini-Cog score improved by 7% from the pre-trial to the post-trial exams. Scores improved by another 26% from the post-trial exam to the post washout exam. The overall average Mini-Cog score improved by 35%.
Help for Post-Covid Issues
A single but promising case study revealed that in just two 5-minute anterior lung treatments with Firefly Light Therapy the patient, a 62 year old male struggling to recover from post-COVID lung symptoms, had remarkable results.
Before COVID-19 became widespread Dr. Bales was infected with the virus and decided to try the Firefly for his loss of taste and smell. Both returned after a series of treatments. Imagine life without taste and smell?! This is a reality for many and we can help them.

After applying Firefly Light Therapy on my father (who has Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease) for about 3-4 weeks, he is more alert and responsive and his neck flexibility has improved so he can turn his head from left to right. Moreover, it has helped him swallow. I am so grateful for this therapy and believe there will be more positive outcomes as we continue treatment. Thank you!

"I've had issues with my gut for months and was miserable. Nothing was working. After the scan and light treatment, let's just say my gut started working properly! I continued my treatments, and I've been going regularly ever since! I feel so much better!"

“Getting rid of these "critters" has really helped my gut health. After eating a "bad" salad, my bowels were in "distress" (which is a nice way to put it). The poop test at the doctor's did not show anything. The scan with the Firefly showed I had E. coli, salmonella and other pathogens! It also showed how hard my immune system was working trying to fight them! Go get scanned and treated!”
