The present application is directed to systems, devices, and methods for diagnosing, preventing, and treating diseases and disorders through photobiomodulation therapy, either alone or in combination with one or more other therapies. More particularly, the present invention provides photon source devices configured to deliver light to a portion of an organism, which causes a physiological response within that light exposed organism. The invention also provides a system which includes one or more photon source devices and functionality for diagnosing or assessing a disease or disorder, and for monitoring responsiveness of the disease or disorder to treatment with the therapeutic light. Additionally, this application is directed to utilizing the present systems and devices in combination with known adjunctive therapies including devices, services, drugs, biologics, genetics and supplements to produce synergistic optimal therapeutic outcomes.

Brush portions are configured for use with a handheld device. The brush portion includes at least one bristle disposed on a bristle base, the bristle having an elongate first electrode, an elongate second electrode abutting the first electrode, and an insulator disposed between the first electrode and the second electrode. The first electrode and the second electrode are electrically connectable to a first voltage source and a second voltage source of the device, respectively.

A distributed-weight heating pad includes a weighted layer in between two covers that provides additional pressure on a user. The weighted layer has a plurality of pockets with weighted elements therein and formed with channels between pockets that allow or enhance articulation of the distributed-weight heating pad. A heating element layer is also disposed between the covers along with a controller and battery that cause the heating element layer to provide both conductive heating and radiation heating. Moreover, the controller may cause the heat from the heating element layer to have a ramping segment to quickly apply heat until a desired temperature is reached. Other devices and methods are presented.

A radiant energy bandage assembly is disclosed. According to an exemplary embodiment, the radiant energy bandage assembly comprises an encased flexible PCBA (Printed Circuit Board Assembly) including a plurality of radiant lamps and a plurality of apertures aligned with the plurality of radiant lamps. A control pod docking interface operatively connected to the flexible PCBA provides an interface to operatively connect a user control pod to control a dosage of radiant energy to a user treatment area.

A portable far infrared (FIR) radiation device containing a conductive heat producing and FIR radiation generating layer containing germanium, conductive carbon powder, a polyurethane resin, a coagulating agent, and a diluent is disclosed. Materials used for making the FIR radiation device are also disclosed.

A therapeutic apparatus for treating damaged tissue on a limb or body of a subject includes a wearable adapted to cover and be secured to the limb or body of a subject over damaged tissue. The wearable being configured to reduce pressure on the damaged tissue and adapted to deliver one or more treatments selected from the group consisting of heat, oxygen, electrical current, and light to the damaged tissue.

According to some embodiments, a method of promoting hair growth or hair stimulation in a subject comprises applying vacuum or suction using a handpiece assembly along a targeted portion of the subject's skin surface where hair growth or hair stimulation is desired and providing at least one treatment material to said targeted portion of the subject's skin surface, wherein the application of vacuum or suction helps promote hair growth or stimulate hair.
