I am delighted to announce that the next NoSilverBullet4PD zoom session will be taking place at 11am London time on Monday, the 31st of October*.

We will have the pleasure of listening to Catherine Hamilton who will give us an update on red light therapy and its potential benefits for people with Parkinson's.

This is a follow up on our previous session of September 2021, the recording of which is available on our YouTube channel: youtu.be/RscgHLusImc

Catherine is a retired medical practitioner and the author of the Red Lights on the Brain blog (redlightsonthebrain.blog). She co-founded Well Red Pty Ltd, the company that produces the Coronet red light hat.

—--------------------------------------

In 2015 Catherine began reading the medical literature about the health effects of red and near infrared lights. She was pretty sceptical at first, but became intrigued by the quality of the research and the biological logic of the way that the lights interacted with the body’s cells. She started making red and near infrared light devices, using LED strips, buckets, old lamp-shades and even PVC piping.

She asked a friend with Parkinson’s Disease if he wanted to try using a red light hat. He did, and his symptoms improved.

She made more bucket light hats for others to try.

When the requests for light hats started coming in thick and fast, Catherine responded by creating the Red Lights on the Brain blog to post detailed instructions and information about red and near infrared lights and medical research.

While many people made the most fantastic bucket light hats, many were reluctant to make their own and wrote to Catherine, wanting to purchase a light hat device. This led to the creation of Well Red Pty Ltd, the company that produces the Coronet red light hat.
