Systems and methods are provided for controlling infrared radiation (IR) sources of a sauna including tuning IR wavelength-ranges and radiated power-levels of IR sources, and directing IR to locations on a user's body. In one illustrative embodiment, a sauna may be provided having adjustable IR emitters to emit IR at any wavelength resulting in a desirable radiation treatment for the sauna user. In another illustrative embodiment, a method is provided for tuning IR emitters in a sauna.

A light emitting device is provided. The light emitting device includes a first light emitter comprising a plurality of light emitting elements configured to emit light in a visible light region, a second light emitter comprising a plurality of light emitting elements configured to emit light in an ultraviolet B (UVB) region, and at least one processor configured to control the first light emitter and the second light emitter so that a sum of an intensity of light emitted from the first light emitter and an intensity of light emitted from the second light emitter is greater than or equal to a threshold illuminance value.

Methods for a generally safe and effective therapy to lower excessive and chronic inflammation via the promotion of the body's powerful anti-inflammatory Interleukin-10 cytokine and re-activation of dormant T regulatory cells are provided. The methods balance the safety and efficacy of both Interleukin-10 (IL-10) and Treg optimization with excessive risk of UV overexposure to treat and improve several chronic non-dermatological conditions.

A system and method for a whole-body immersion bed or cabinet that permits the user to experience the therapy(s) on their entire body at the same time. The therapy in its most basic form is a combination light, and frequency therapy. Each therapy session includes a set of resonant frequencies and a set of beneficial light wavelengths applied to the user at the same time. The resonant frequencies are applied through specific pulses and/or binary codes that are chosen based upon the condition that the therapy is attempting to treat. Additionally, the resonant frequencies may be applied through a frequency pulse generator or binary code generator. The frequency pulse generator and/or binary coding generator are set to a pre-established set of frequencies that have been shown to be effective for treating each particular condition.

Lighting systems, methods, and devices for protecting human circadian neuroendocrine function during night use are described. Suitable lighting conditions can be provided for a working environment while protecting the circadian neuroendocrine systems of those occupying the illuminated workplace during the night. Lighting systems, methods, and devices can provide substantive attenuation of the pathologic circadian disruption in night workers. Lighting systems, methods, and devices can attenuate the specific bands of light implicated in circadian disruption. LED lighting systems, methods, and devices can provide increased intensity at a different portion of the spectrum than conventional LEDs, providing a useable white light even when unfavorable portions of the wavelength are attenuated by a notch filter. LED lighting systems, methods, and devices can switch between a daytime configuration and a night time configuration, wherein the daytime configuration provides unfiltered light and the night time configuration provides filtered light.
