24. ATP stands for adenosine triphosphate.
True
False
25 ATP provides the chemical energy that drives the chemical reactions of the
cell.
True
False
Increase lymphatic system activity. Edema, which is the swelling or natural
splinting process of the body, has two basic components. The first is a liquid part
which can be evacuated by the blood system and the second is comprised of the
proteins which have to be evacuated by the lymphatic system. Research has
shown that the lymph vessel diameter and the flow of the lymph system can be
doubled with the use of light therapy. The venous diameter and the arterial
diameters can also be increased. This means that both parts of edema (liquid
and protein) can be evacuated at a much faster rate to relieve swelling
.
Try
treating swelling under the eyes, in most cases you can reduce it dramatically.
26. Low level light treatments have no effect on the lymphatic system.
True
False
Increase RNA and DNA synthesis. This helps the body replace damaged cells
more promptly.
27. Low level light treatments increase RNA/DNA synthesis.
True
False
Reduce the excitability of nerve tissue. The photons of light energy enter the
body as negative ions. This requires the body to send positive ions, calcium
among others, to flow to the area being treated. These ions assist in regulating
the nerves, thereby relieving pain. While this benefit may not be used in cosmetic
applications, you may choose to offer pain relief as part of relaxing stiff muscles
and massage.
28. Low level light treatments reduce the excitability of nerve tissue.
True
False
Stimulate fibroblastic activity which aids in the repair process. Fibroblasts
are present in connective tissue and are capable of forming collagen fibers.
29. Fibroblast cells are stimulated by low level light treatments.
True
False
