Conversely, mixing two opposite light colors, such as red and green, creates white light. In other words, the two colors combined comprise the whole color spectrum. Red is one of the three primary colors, while green is a complementary color. The close relationship between these two kinds of colors is visualized in the opposite color circle diagram.
Blue
soothes, inhibits, focuses, cools down, collects and structures energy, re-regulates hyperactive, inflammatory, and derailing processes, brings serenity and clarity. Its effects make blue the counterpole of red.
Yellow
fortifies, tones, opens, brightens, stimulates without exciting, extends energy, reinforces weak processes, loosens overly rigid structures, strengthens the nerves. Its effects place yellow between red and blue.
10
Orange
restores, animates, warms, stimulates, works more gently than red, building up energy step by step, unlocks deadlocked processes, cheers up. Its effects are a blend of red and yellow.
Purple
inspires, attenuates, reduces, transforms energy on a high level, supports mental processes, relaxes the nerves, soothes nervous irritations, relieves pain. Its effects are a blend of blue and red.

A Case In Point
Very nervous, hyperactive people often suffer from a lack of energy rather than as one might think a surplus. It is this lack of energy that causes them to be restless and burdened with a low breaking-point. Unaware of this energy-depleted background, they choose blue for their treatment color, assuming they need calming down rather than stimula tion. And the result? Disappointment, as their nervousness increases instead of disappearing. So what went wrong? 1. Due to a mistaken assessment of their initial condition, their energy status was not properly diagnosed. 2. Consequently, their already weakened energy potential was further reduced by the color blue. So what would have been the right thing to do? They should have been treated with yellow, orange, and red to invigorate and stimulate their organisms! Only these colors will provide them with the relaxing, soothing adjustment they need. Conclusion: In order to offset an imbalance, patients need to be treated with the opposite of whats causing the strain. It is almost like driving a car: After taking a turn, you have to apply opposite lock to go straight again...

bios is Greek for life. Information stands for message. Hence, bioinformation means living messages!
New technologies such as Kirlian photography, invented in 1939 by Russian researchers Semyon and Valentina Kirlian and since then advanced by various scientists, allow us to visualize the bioelectric energy of living beings by applying a high-frequency electric field and recording the luminescence thus generated on film. It is obvious that all living beings are an integral part of the biosphere, and yet they also function as independent organisms. So far, scientists in Russia, the United States, and Europe are still studying the whys and hows of interactive energetic processes in such a complex system.

When Rumanian researcher Ioan Dumitrescu discovered electronogra phy, it became possible to show one of Natures ordering principles, the socalled window effect. If, for example, you cut a little hole into a leaf, an inte resting phenomenon appears: An elec tronograph of the leafs missing section shows a radiation pattern that is almost identical with the original leaf structure.

an enormous array of manifold frequency spectra offering a rich supply of bioinformation, and both sides are constantly exchanging energy. In the end, the quality of this energy exchange determines the state of our health. If the human body does not get the vital bioinformation it needs to maintain its structures in order, or if this order is disturbed by disinformation, we get sick. On the other hand, if we receive the right kind of bioinformation we stay or get healthy.

ning? Cosmic constellations, such as the phase of the moon or the position of the planets, also favor or affect the harvest. And then there are the tools and machines that may influence the harvesting in a positive or negative manner. Finally, processing the plant to gain a phytotherapeutic substance and transporting that substance to where it will be used may alter its quality, too. All these factors make one thing clear: It is no longer easily possible to gain essences which are both effective and safe in every way. So we appreciate Natures medicines all the more when we get the chance to use them as they were meant to be used: pure and unharmed.

It is not until one of these many parts is harmed, disharmonizing the whole, that this vital consciousness is disturbed, and everything goes haywire.. For example: q Cutting a finger can shake us up. It hurts. Then it starts to bleed. The injured finger increasingly affects our overall feeling, until we are nothing more than this one aching finger! Since the finger and its injury are not perceived separately, it becomes exceedingly dominant. As the finger takes over the whole, we are aggressed as a whole, feeling suddenly blocked, shocked, sad or angry, shaky and weak. And all of this (nota bene!) just because one little fin ger is hurt... This simple example clearly illustrates how tightly and intensely everything within us is connected, how intricately and finely all parts are intertwined. We may not always be conscious of it, but the human being is a whole.

completely rebuild its organic and mental capacities. Thus, early symptoms might be called the guardians of our health. Considering the human being as a whole, lightheartedly taking aggressive chemical medication to suppress symptoms is absurd.

Picture this example: q A cruise ship caught in a storm. Imagine a cruise ship carrying a thousand passengers in the middle of the ocean, braving a violent storm. Luckily, the captain of a modern ship can rely both on state-of-the-art instruments and a well-trained crew. The gale and storm warning is transmitted by radio hours ahead, so the admirably well-organized crew is ready. Every crew member has manned his or her post, waiting to execute the captains orders on the spot. Any problem is immediately reported back to the captain. Thanks to clear-cut instructions, passengers threatened by water leaking through the hull can instantly be led out of the danger zone. By way of perfectly functioning loudspeakers, the captain may speak to the pas sengers at any time. His life-saving commands are directly heard and carried out by everybody. At any moment of this crisis, the captain stays in complete control of the situation. Hence, the ship and her passengers have every chance to live through the storm unharmed. In this example, radio and loudspeaker technology as well as the professional and alert crew symbolize the bodys control level, its communication center which is constantly supplying the whole with the regulatory information it needs. Supported by his crew, the captain is able to safely steer the ship through the storm. But what would happen without modern communication technology? Maybe the crew, executing the captains orders, would race around on all five decks at once, trying to get the passengers to put on their life jackets in time. Other life-saving steps that should be taken simultaneously, such as changing course or lowering the lifeboats, would be impeded by this line of action. Which, of course, would put the passengers in mortal danger.
Since Bioptron Colour Therapy aims at maintaining or restoring the corporate managements optimum functionality, mainly basing its regulatory approach on the control level, it may rightfully be called holistic. Its rectifying impulses race straight from top to bottom to supply the whole control hierarchy with the regenerative information it needs under the circumstances.

The Five Focal Points of Bioptron Colour Therapy: Communicating With the Whole
q Energy Reserves q Power of Resistance q Inner Well-Being q Metabolism q Skin and Body Tissues All these Focal Points evoke familiar experiences for everybody. Our everyday pleasures and worries revolve in and around these five areas, making them an appropriate and convenient first step on the way to self-therapy. After all, regenerating the whole does not start somewhere far out in the realm of the inconceivable but right here where we sense and experience ourselves. We perceive the five Focal Points as both dynamic and matter-of-fact quantities which are tightly intertwined, one implying the other. When we assess ourselves, the words we choose confirm that we experience them in a rock-bottom, elementary way: Focal Point I feel all limp. My health is so delicate. Im stressedout. Im always constipated My skin looks bad. Energy Reserves Power of Resistance Inner Well-Being Metabolism Skin and Body Tissues
Environmental strains and disorders resulting from an impaired quality of life can largely be eliminated by applying one of the 12 Treatment Schedules of Bioptron Colour Therapy. You will be able to re-harmonize your energy dynamics by simultaneously addressing several regulatory agents within the control hierarchy, i.e., energy centers (chakras), energy lines and points (meridians), as well as reflex zones and organ zones.

THE ELEMENTS

Polarized Light
The human body is composed of billions of tissue and blood cells, most of them measuring about one hundredth of a millimeter in diameter. Body cells were found to contain minuscule organs, the so-called organelles. As far as structure is concerned, a cell can be compared to a house with many rooms, doors, and windows. Each organelle is like a room in which holistic regulatory processes take place to keep the house in good, viable shape. The houses (cells) unite in blocks (tissues), which in turn form a town (the human body). The body of the cell is covered with the exterior cell membrane (plasma membrane). This membrane is an extraordinarily thin, but tough and solid layer of lipid and protein molecules. Biological membranes are highly specific mediators between the inside and the outside, i.e., the cell
29
and its surroundings. They separate individual spheres of action, preventing the constituents of different organelles from mixing freely. Otherwise, chemical control processes could not possibly take their appropriate, well-ordered course. Thus the health of a cell essentially depends on the cell membrane fulfilling its mediating and transmitting function smoothly. Malfunctions, for example, upsetting electrical poles or lipids, inhibit the proper functioning of the membranes enzymes and their receptors which are responsible for the cells energy and food supply. This decreases the activity of the respiratory chain, to name just one. As a result, the cells potential is reduced, and the information stored in DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and contained in the nucleus can no longer be released, bringing regenerative processes to a standstill. The Bioptron Lamps polarized light reinitiates these regenerative processes.
Polychromatic
Unlike normal laser light, which is limited to a very narrow bandwidth (monochromatic) and transfers a high amount of energy, Bioptron Light encompasses a wide bandwidth (polychromatic) and transfers little energy (figure 1). q
Polarized
figure 1
The electromagnetic waves of polarized light oscillate in parallel planes only, giving it very special qualities. It is these qualities that Bioptron Light Therapy makes use of. Bioptron Light is polarized by reflection off of a special, proprietary multilayer mirror, reaching a polarization degree of 95%. Polarization by reflection is much more efficient than circu lar polarization (figure 2).
30
figure 2
Incoherent
As opposed to laser light, Bioptron Light is not characterized by temporally or spatially synchronized light wave trains, which means that wave crests and therefore the lights intensity will neither add nor subtract. For this reason, Bioptron Light reaches the area to be treated with constant, steady intensity, making it possible to apply a generally lower degree of energy (intensity). q
Specific Wavelength
figure 3
Wavelength is of essential importance for the effect of any kind of light. Bioptron Light covers a range of 400 to 2000 nm. In other words, it does not contain ultraviolet rays and only a small part of the infrared spectrum (figure 3). q
No Ultraviolet Rays
The Bioptron Lamps electromagnetic spectrum definitely starts above the UV range. Thus its light does not redden or tan the skin, nor does it represent any danger to the human eye. q
Permeation Effect
The permeation effect is generated by the slightly calorific infrared portion of the Bioptron Light spectrum. Prolonging a treatment session will increase the permeation effect. q
Light Temperature
The light spectrum of the Bioptron Lamp encompasses the lower infrared range only. Hence, it generates a treatment temperature of approx. 37C, i.e., 1C above normal body temperature. q
Innocuous
Bioptron Lamps even though they have been used all over the world for years have never been reported to cause any side effect whatsoever.
31
Practical Application
Keeping a distance of about 5 cm (2 in), point the Bioptron Lamps cone of colored light at the area you want to treat. At a distance of more than 10 cm (4 in) from the body, polarized light has a noticeably weaker effect. A distance of less than 5 cm, while involving no risk whatsoever, makes handling the Lamp awkward. When treating a small area that is completely covered by the light cone, keep the Lamp steady. When treating a large area of your body, move the Lamp slowly to cover it point by point. Hasty movements may cause unrest and interfere with the course of therapy.

glass. In the famous Verrerie de Saint-Just in the heart of France, their love for their handicraft and their stunning expertise combine to create unique pieces of colored glass, the kind of which are used to restore the stained-glass windows of the cathedrals in Chartres and Reims (both France) or of old castles and historic monuments. However, it is equally suited to modern pieces of art, such as the stained-glass windows of Chagall, the glass art in the United Nations building in New York City, or the Yammousuko basilica in Japan. The special shine and the unmistakable brilliance of Saint-Just colored glass can be admired all over the world.

The biophysical transfer system used to bioinform the oxides that are blended into the filters antique glass has been exclusively developed for Bioptron AG by the Zrich Institute for Bioinformation.
Practical Application
First, pull off the yellow filter that is factory-mounted to the Lamp. This filter is only used for Bioptron Light Therapy, you do not need it for Colour Therapy. Attach the Color Glass Filter you need to the Lamp without exerting any pressure. Equally gently, remove it after use. Keep the Color Glass Filters as free of dust as possible. Clean them from time to time, using a moistened soft duster. Do not use aggressive detergents, and absolutely do not clean the Color Glass Filters in the dishwasher.
