Light Therapy Basics

Your CLT journey begins with a comprehensive overview of the history and practice of using Light to bring the body back to health.  This module also includes an introduction to the various types of Light Tools and their applications – such as Photobiomodulation and Photopuncture.

Here you start to explore the connections between structural, emotional, & energetic balance and how light can help restore that balance.

Yes, there is a direct relationship between shining the right light in the right places, in the right order and the results that you see from both photobiomodulation and photopuncture.  The best outcomes consistently come from using best practices.

We all recognize light whether it comes from the sun, or a lamp.  But which colors are beneficial to living cells and why?  Why are some colors absorbed and others not?  Which are the best color to use in Light Therapy?

Here is where you delve into the nitty-gritty of exactly what happens when a cell absorbs a packet of light (aka a photon).  Do all colors trigger the same response?  How can we use this understanding to create vibrant health?

Science is beginning to understand how much Light you actually need to stimulate a beneficial reaction in living cells.  But manufacturers often give little, or disingenuous, information about how much light their tools are providing. Here you learn to discern how much is “enough” and not “too much” light.

Simply absorbing the needed energy of a photon can benefit cells.  But how can pulsing that light change how the body reacts?  Which frequencies are used and why?

There are a plethora of different types and qualities of Light Tools flooding the markets around the globe.  Working with pads versus lasers or panels means using different strategies to achieve the best outcomes.

How is information carried through the body?  Not just by nerves!  Explore the primary three information pathways and how targeted Light can improve communication along each one.

Pain Hurts.  Or does it?  Not all pain is a direct signal from an area in distress.  Here you will explore how to look at types of pain and how to use different Light Therapy approaches to alleviate them.

Did you know that you have 2 opposing nervous systems and that Light allows us to shift into the one where it is possible to heal from chronic health issues?  How can you use your tools to speed the results from any healing modality?

Great results are easier to achieve with proper planning and execution of the sessions that you offer.  Supporting your own energy, setting realistic expectations and combining approaches – and even therapeutic modalities – can speed results and develop long term relationships with clients.

How can you actually address a wide variety of physical complaints for humans and animals without a medical degree and extensive training?  By helping support the body’s ability to heal itself when giving the right conditions.  As a Light Therapist, our job isn’t to diagnose or treat specific diseases or disabilities.  Instead we provide the needed energy and balance for each individual to regain health. 

The difference between anecdotal evidence (non-provable stories) and proven results is documentation.  Basic record keeping is crucial to establishing a sucessful practice and being taken seriously by other health professionals.

There is no one right way to have a Light Therapy Practice.  Whether you want to work with humans or animals, at home or in a client’s home, in person or online, there are certain habits that are important to master.

CYA – “Cover your A**”.  Yes, this is the boring part where you review what you can … and cannot … say when offering services as a non-licensed health practitioner!

Here is where you put the course materials into active practice.  Using your selected Light Tools you will complete and document 3 separate Light Therapy Sessions with 3 different clients.

Taking the CLT course helped me fill in blanks I needed to expand my wellness salon to the next level. The course is phenomenally set up for all learners and the support before, during, and after is incredible. I love helping people become the best versions of themselves and thankful the CLT course helped get me there.

Overall, I can’t recommend the CLT course highly enough. For anyone passionate about Light Therapy, this course provides not only the knowledge but also the practical skills and ongoing support necessary to succeed and make a meaningful difference in clients’ lives.

The Certified Light Therapist course by the Photonic Therapy Institute is an exceptional training program for anyone interested in mastering Light Therapy!

This course goes above and beyond in providing comprehensive, high-quality training materials that make even the most complex topics approachable and engaging. Each module is thoughtfully designed, breaking down key concepts and applications with clear, well-organized resources that build confidence and competence as you progress. One of the standout features of the course is the practicum component. It’s invaluable!

The hands-on experience gained through the practicum allows you to apply the theoretical knowledge in real-life scenarios, ensuring that you feel thoroughly prepared to work with clients by the time you’re certified. It’s one thing to understand the science of light therapy in theory, but the practicum brings it to life, solidifying your skills and giving you the confidence to deliver real results.

Equally impressive is the support provided throughout the course and beyond. The instructors and support team at the Photonic Therapy Institute are always there to answer questions, offer guidance, and encourage your learning every step of the way. And even after certification, they continue to offer support through resources and a community of fellow light therapists.
