[0026] Before disclosure embodiments are described herein, it is to be understood that this disclosure is not limited to the particular structures, process steps, or materials disclosed herein, but is extended to equivalents thereof as would be recognized by those ordinarily skilled in the relevant arts. It should also be understood that terminology employed herein is used for the purpose of describing particular examples or embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting. The same reference numerals in different drawings represent the same element. Numbers provided in flow charts and processes are provided for clarity in illustrating steps and operations and do not necessarily indicate a particular order or sequence.

[0027] Furthermore, the described features, structures, or characteristics can be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments. In the following description, numerous specific details are provided, such as explanation of an electromagnetic field to provide a thorough understanding of various disclosure embodiments. One skilled in the relevant art will recognize, however, that such detailed embodiments do not limit the overall inventive concepts articulated herein.

[0028] It should be noted that, the singular forms “a,” “an,” and, “the” include plural referents unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. Thus, for example, reference to “a light” includes reference to one or more lights and reference to “a gas therapy generator” includes reference to one or more of gas therapy generators.

[0029] As used herein, the term ‘‘about” is used to provide flexibility to a numerical range endpoint by providing that a given value may be “a little above” or “a little below” the endpoint. Unless otherwise stated, use of the term “about” in accordance with a specific number or numerical range should also be understood to provide support for such numerical terms or range without the term “about.” For example, for the sake of convenience and brevity, a numerical range of “about 50 angstroms to about 80 angstroms” should also be understood to provide support for the range of “50 angstroms to 80 angstroms.” Furthermore, it is to be understood that in this specification support for actual numerical values is provided even when the term “about” is used therewith. For example, the recitation of “about” 30 should be construed as not only providing support for values a little above and a little below 30, but also for the actual numerical value of 30 as well. Additionally, it is to be understood that in this written description, occurrences of the word “about” in connection with an element to which the term is applied also provide express support for the item itself as though the term “about” were not used. For example, the phrase “about 85%” includes express support for “85%” or “exactly 85%” (e.g. 85% per se).

[0030] In this disclosure, “comprises,” “comprising,” “containing” and “having” and the like can have the meaning ascribed to them in U.S. Patent law and can mean “includes,” “including,” and the like, and are generally interpreted to be open ended terms. The terms “consisting of’ or “consists of’ are closed terms, and include only the components, structures, steps, or the like specifically listed in conjunction with such terms, as well as that which is in accordance with U.S. Patent law. “Consisting essentially of’ or “consists essentially of’ have the meaning generally ascribed to them by U.S. Patent law. In particular, such terms are generally closed terms, with the exception of allowing inclusion of additional items, materials, components, steps, or elements, that do not materially affect the basic and novel characteristics or function of the item(s) used in connection therewith. For example, trace elements present in a composition, but not affecting the compositions nature or characteristics would be permissible if present under the “consisting essentially of’ language, even though not expressly recited in a list of items following such terminology. When using an open-ended term, like “comprising” or “including,” in the written description it is understood that direct support should be afforded also to “consisting essentially of’ language as well as “consisting of’ language as if stated explicitly and vice versa.

[0031] The terms “coupled” and “connected” can be used interchangeably. These terms refer to a relationship between items or structures that are either directly coupled to one another or indirectly coupled to one another with an intervening member therebetween. In some examples, the coupling can be in a chemical, mechanical, electrical, or nonelectrical manner. “Directly coupled” or “directly connected” objects or elements are in physical contact with one another. In this written description, recitation of “coupled” or “connected” provides express support for “directly coupled” or “directly connected,” as well as. providing support for “indirectly coupled” or “indirectly connected.” Objects described herein as being “adjacent to” each other may be in physical contact with each other, in close proximity to each other, or in the same general region or area as each other, as appropriate for the context in which the phrase is used.

[0032] Occurrences of the phrase “in one embodiment,” “in one example, or “in one aspect,” herein do not necessarily all refer to the same embodiment, example, or aspect. The terms "first." “second,” “third,” “fourth.” and the like in the description and in the claims, if any, are used for distinguishing between similar elements and not necessarily for describing a particular sequential or chronological order. It is to be understood that any terms so used are interchangeable under appropriate circumstances such that the embodiments described herein are, for example, capable of operation in sequences other than those illustrated or otherwise described herein. Similarly, if a method is described herein as comprising a series of steps, the order of such steps as presented herein is not necessarily the only order in which such steps may be performed, and certain of the stated steps may possibly be omitted and / or certain other steps not described herein may possibly be added to the method.

[0033] As used herein, comparative terms such as “increased.” “decreased.” “better,” “worse,” “higher,” “lower,” “enhanced,” “maximized,” “minimized,” and the like refer to a property^ of a system, device, component, methods, or activity that is measurably different from other systems, devices, components, methods, or activities in a surrounding or adjacent area, in a single device or in multiple comparable devices, in a group or class, in multiple groups or classes, or as compared to the known state of the art. For example, an “increased” healing response can refer to a degree or timing of healing that surpasses or exceeds healing achieved to a comparable injury7or condition without treatment or without a similar or like treatment. Likewise, an “increased” recovery can refer to a degree or timing of recovery that surpasses or exceeds a recovery achieved in the absence of treatment, or a similar or like treatment.

[0034] A "disease" is a state of health of a subject wherein the subject cannot maintain homeostasis, and wherein if the disease is not ameliorated then the subject's health continues to deteriorate. A "disorder" in a subject is a state of health in which the subject is able to maintain homeostasis, but in which the subject's state of health is less favorable than it would be in the absence of the disorder. Left untreated, a disorder does not necessarily cause a further decrease in the subject's state of health. An “injury ” refers to trauma or damage imposed by an event or by a disease or disorder. For example, overexertion can cause muscular damage in a subject. A “condition” can be used to refer to diseases, disorders, or injuries and includes both physical and mental conditions and the manifest symptoms thereof. A condition, including diseases, disorders, and injuries as well as symptoms thereof is "alleviated" if the severity of a symptom of the condition, the frequency with which such a symptom is experienced by a patient, or both, is reduced. As used herein, “effective’' or “therapeutically effective'’ when used in connection with a treatment, such as an electromagnetic energy source, light therapy treatment, gas therapy, and the like refer to an amount and / or type of treatment components that is determined to be sufficient to achieve therapeutic results in treating a subject for a given condition. It is understood that various biological factors may affect the ability of a treatment or therapy to perform its intended task. Therefore, an “effective amount” or a “therapeutically effective amount” may be dependent in some instances on such biological factors. Further, while the achievement of therapeutic effects may be measured by a physician or other qualified medical personnel using evaluations known in the art, it is recognized that individual variation and response to treatments may make the achievement of therapeutic effects a somewhat subjective decision. The determination of an effective amount is well within the ordinary skill in the art of medical sciences.

[0035] The terms "treat," "treatment," “treating” and the like as used herein, refer to the alleviation (i.e., "diminution") and / or the elimination of a sign or symptom or a source of a sign or symptom of a disease, condition, or disorder. By way of several non-limiting examples, a symptom of a bacterial infection can be treated by alleviating a symptom of that disorder. A symptom of a bacterial infection can also be treated by altogether eliminating a symptom of that disorder. A bacterial infection or colonization can be treated by alleviating the source, or "cause," of that disorder. A bacterial infection or colonization can also be treated by eliminating the source of that disorder. Additionally, inflammation is a condition that can be associated with a number of diseases or injuries. Administration of anti-inflammatory agents, such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen can reduce inflammation and thereby provide an effective treatment.

[0036] As used herein, a "therapeutically effective combination" refers to any combination of an electromagnetic energy source, light therapy treatment, gas therapy, and / or the like that are applied in an amount (e.g., intensity or duration or both) that is sufficient to provide a beneficial effect to a subject.

[0037] The terms "patient," "subject," and "individual" are interchangeably used to mean a warm-blooded animal, such as a mammal. It is understood that humans and animals are included within the scope of the terms "patient," "subject," or "individual." In some embodiments the mammal can include homo sapiens, feline, canine, equine, and bovine species. In some examples, the subject is human. The systems, devices, and methods herein can be used by humans in a medicinal, nutraceutical, cosmetic, or recreational fashion. In yet other examples, the devices and systems herein can be used in a veterinary capacity on domesticated pets and / or farm animals.

[0038] As used herein, the term ’‘substantially” refers to the complete or nearly complete extent or degree of an action, characteristic, property, state, structure, item, or result. For example, an object that is “substantially” enclosed would mean that the object is either completely enclosed or nearly completely enclosed. The exact allowable degree of deviation from absolute completeness may in some cases depend on the specific context. However, generally speaking the nearness of completion will be so as to have the same overall result as if absolute and total completion were obtained. The use of “substantially” is equally applicable when used in a negative connotation to refer to the complete or near complete lack of an action, characteristic, property, state, structure, item, or result. For example, a composition that is “substantially free of’ particles would either completely lack particles, or so nearly completely lack particles that the effect would be the same as if it completely lacked particles. In other words, a composition that is “substantially free of’ an ingredient or element may still actually contain such item as long as there is no measurable effect thereof. It is to be understood that in this written description, occurrences of the word “substantially” in connection with an element to which the term is applied also provide express support for the item itself as though the term “substantially” were not used. For example, the phrase “substantially catalyzed” includes express support for “catalyzed” per se as though catalyzation were 100% complete.

[0039] As used herein, a plurality of items, structural elements, compositional elements, and / or materials may be presented in a common list for convenience. However, these lists should be construed as though each member of the list is individually identified as a separate and unique member. Thus, no individual member of such list should be construed as a de facto equivalent of any other member of the same list solely based on their presentation in a common group without indications to the contrary.

[0040] Concentrations, amounts, levels, and other numerical data may be expressed or presented herein in a range format. It is to be understood that such a range format is used merely for convenience and brevity and thus should be interpreted flexibly to include not only the numerical values explicitly recited as the limits of the range, but also to include all the individual numerical values or sub-ranges or decimal units encompassed within that range as if each numerical value and sub-range is explicitly recited. As an illustration, a numerical range of “about 1 to about 5” should be interpreted to include not only the explicitly recited values of about 1 to about 5, but also include individual values and sub- ranges within the indicated range. Thus, included in this numerical range are individual values such as 2, 3, and 4 and sub-ranges such as from 1-3, from 2-4. and from 3-5, etc., as well as 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5, individually. This same principle applies to ranges reciting only one numerical value as a minimum or a maximum. Furthermore, such an interpretation should apply regardless of the breadth of the range, or the characteristics being described.

[0041] Reference throughout this specification to "an example” means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the example is included in at least one embodiment. Thus, appearances of the phrases “in an example” in various places throughout this specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment.

[0042] Reference will now be made in detail to preferred embodiments of the disclosure. While the disclosure will be described in conjunction with the preferred examples and embodiments, it will be understood that it is not intended to limit the disclosure to those preferred embodiments. To the contrary, it is intended to cover alternatives, variants, modifications, and equivalents as may be included within the spirit and scope of the disclosure as defined by the appended claims.

[0043] In one example, presented herein is a system for enhancing well-being in an individual. The system 100, as illustrated in FIG. 1, includes a pulsed electromagnetic energy generator (PEMG) 110, a light source 120. and a gas generator 130. The pulsed electromagnetic energy generator can be configured to generate pulsed electromagnetic energy. The light source can be configured to emit light that can have a wavelength ranging from about 380 nm to about 1,050 nm. The gas generator can be operable to provide a gas selected from oxygen, hydrogen, or both oxygen and hydrogen for the purpose of gas therapy. The system can be configured for and operable to permit simultaneous application or administration of the pulsed electromagnetic energy, the light, and the gas to the subject.

[0044] The pulsed electromagnetic energy generator can be operable to generate electromagnetic energy that can be pulsed. THE PEMG can generate a pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF), pulsed electromagnetic induction (PEMI), or another type of pulsed electromagnetic energy. In one example the PEMG can include a PEMF generator. In another example, the PEMG can include a PEMI generator (e g. . The PEMG can include a single wire coil or multiple wire coils that can form a radiant circuit through which electric cunent can flow). In some examples, the PEMI can emit a zero EMF or a near zero EMF. The electric current generated by the PEMG can give off a magnetic field which can be emitted at controlled depths and frequencies. The electromagnetic field can be pulsed to create short magnetic waves. The magnetic waves can have a set waveform, a square wave, triangle wave, or a sinusoidal wave. The wave form can have very little effect on the pulse intensity7and frequency. The PEMG can generate high-frequency, low intensity electromagnetic fields; low-frequency, high intensity electromagnetic fields; or patterns of frequencies with varying intensities. A configuration of the PEMG and voltage applied can determine the intensity and frequency of electromagnetic energy7emitted.

[0045] An overall strength of the electromagnetic energy can be adjusted due to the structural make-up of the PEMG, and the voltage applied thereto. For example, a density of the electric charge can be increased by tightening the wire coils along a set distance. When comparing a coil wrapped 100 times along a 2 inch nail to a coil wrapped 150 times along a 2 inch nail; a strength of the electromagnetism produced will be proportionately stronger for the coil that is wrapped 150 times. Adjusting a chemical composition of the coils can also be used to increase a strength of the electromagnetic energy produced. In some examples, an iron core can be included within the coils to multiply a strength of electromagnetic energy produced.

[0046] An electromagnetic frequency can also be adjusted. In some examples, the PEMG can generate at an electromagnetic frequency ranging from about 5 Hz to about 75 Hz. In yet other examples, the PEMG can generate at an electromagnetic frequency ranging from about 5 Hz to about 50 Hz, from about 5 Hz to about 25 Hz, from about 25 Hz to about 75 Hz, from about 25 Hz to about 50 Hz, from about 30 Hz to about 60 Hz, or from 15 Hz to about 45 Hz.

[0047] The PEMG can produce a magnetic flux density ranging from about 20 pT to about 100 pT. In yet other examples, the PEMG can generate a magnetic flux density' ranging from about 20 pT to about 80 pT, from about 20 pT to about 60 pT, from about 20 pT to about 40 pT, from about 30 pT to about 90 pT, from about 30 pT to about 60 pT, from about 30 pT to about 50 pT, from about 40 pT to about 80 pT, from about 20 pT to about 50 pT, from about 50 pT to about 100 pT, or from about 25 pT to about 75 pT.

[0048] The PEMG can have an adjustable and controllable pulse rate. A pulse rate that is faster can have greater cell stimulating affect which can affect the rate at which ions enter and exit a cell; however, a pulse rate that is faster can aggravate inflamed tissues and / or injured tissues. Accordingly, the ability to control and adjust a pulse rate can be desired. A pulse rate of the PEMG can vary from about 1 pulse to second to about 10 pulses per second. In yet other examples, the pulse rate can range from about 1 pulse to about 5 pulses per second, from about 1 pulse to about 3 pulses per second, from about 2 pulses to about 8 pulses per second, from about 4 pulses to about 8 pulses per second, or from about 5 pulses to about 10 pulses per second.

[0049] The PEMG can include a controller with hardware and software operable to control and adjust the pulse rate, wave shape, strength, and frequency of electromagnetic energy7generated. In some examples, software of a controller of the PEMG can include an algorithm that can permit varying frequencies and intensities. Controlling intensities and specific patterns of frequency placements can re-create and induce an electromagnetic energy that can be matched to angled bonds of water molecules. In addition, controlling intensities and specific patterns of frequency placements can target receptors in cells to resonate cells at a harmonic state of vibration. The electromagnetic energy can be emitted in specific patterns, at specific times, and specific intensities as indicated by the algorithm in order to reach up to a trillion different harmonic frequencies per second and synchronize into a harmonic resonance of coherence allowing an effortless, (zero point energy7state, or a quantum zero state) harmonic state of vibration. The harmonic state of vibration can allow placement of specific cell types and or their respective receptors, into a state of regulation.

[0050] The PEMG component of the system can be in the form of a whole-body device or a point of application device. The PEMG component can be configured in the form of a mat, a tunnel, a bed, a chamber, a body wrap sized and shaped for applying electromagnetic energy' to specific body parts or regions (e.g. targeted administration), a disc, a ring, a wand, or the like. A structure of the PEMG component can depend on the application area. For example, a whole-body device could include a PEMG component in the form of a mat, a tunnel, a bed, a chamber, or the like. A point of application PEMG component could be in the form of a mat, a body wrap sized and shaped for a specific body part or region, a disc, a ring, a wand, or the like. In one example, the PEMG component can be a whole-body^ device in the form of a whole-body mat or a bed.

[0051] The system presented herein also includes a light source for light therapy (e.g. photo biomodulation therapy or "PBM" therapy) which can involve exposing the body to certain light wavelengths to stimulate healing and reduce inflammation and pain and / or to induce other physiologic events or processes. The light source can include a light type selected from a light-emitting diode (LED), a laser, arc / flash lamp, a fluorescent lamp, a halogen lamp, a sodium lamp, a gas discharge lamp, a metal vapor lamp, or combinations thereof. In some examples, the light source can include an LED light source. The LED can include an array of LED bulbs, which can be operable to emit a variety of wavelengths. In another example, the light source can include a laser. In yet other examples, a combination of light types can be included in the system. A combination of light types can be used with a particular power and wavelength can provide a synergistic effect in enhancing well-being and healing when treating a range of subjects.

[0052] A light source can be operable to emit a wavelength ranging from about 380 nm to about 1,050 nm. In an example, the light source can be operable to emit a wavelength ranging from about 380 nm to about 700 nm, from about 380 nm to about 550 nm, from about 550 nm to about 650 nm, from about 500 nm to about 750 nm, from about 600 nm to about 850 nm, from about 750 nm to about 1,050 nm, or from about 800 nm to about 1,000 nm. Wavelengths ranging from about 380 nm to about 650 nm can be used to treat skin and other directly accessible or surface tissues. These wavelengths can be absorbed by blood and scattered in tissue components in or near a skin surface. Wavelengths ranging from about 650 nm to 1,050 nm can be used to penetrate tissues beneath the skin to promote healing and regeneration. Accordingly, a wavelength of light emitted from the light source can be determined based on a desired treatment and desired depth of penetration necessary to achieve said treatment. In some examples, the light source can include a variety of lights operable to emit a different range of wavelengths and the wavelengths emitted can be controlled by a controller.

[0053] A power density of the light source can also vary. In some examples, a light source can be configured to radiate at a power density ranging from about 50 mW / cm2to about 300 mW / cm2. In yet other examples, a light source can radiate at a power density ranging from about 50 mW / cm2to about 100 mW / cm2, from about 100 mW / cm2to about 300 mW / cm2, from about 150 mW / cm2to about 250 mW / cm2, or from about 150 mW / cm2to about 300 mW / cm2. A power density can be adjusted to adjust a penetration depth of the light wave into a subject. The higher the power density, the deeper the cellular penetration. For example, power densities from about 50 mW / cm2to about 100 mW / cm2can be used for treatment closer to a skin surface, such as for anti-aging or topical purposes. Power densities from about 100 mW / cm2to about 300 mW / cm2can be used for treatments below the skin surface, such as for fat loss, deep tissue healing, and the like. A light source can be configured to generate a continuous light wave, or a pulsed light wave. In one example, the light source can be configured to have a pulse at a rate that can range from between about 10 hertz (Hz) to about 5 kilohertz (kHz). In yet other examples, the light source can have a pulse rate that can range from about 10 Hz to about 1,000 Hz, from about 1 kHz to about 5 kHz, from about 500 Hz to about 1 kHz, from about 500 Hz to about 2.5 kHz, from about 1kHz to about 3 kHz, or from about 3 kHz to about 5 kHz. In another example, the combination of light sources can be configured to pulse using a duty cycle limited to between about 75% to about 100%.

[0054] A physical configuration of the light source can vary’ based on ty pe of light, an application ty pe, and application purpose. In some examples, a light source can have a flat configuration, a pinpoint configuration, an arcuate configuration, a 180-degree arc configuration, a 360-degree arc configuration, or a combination thereof. In another example, a housing of the light source can comprise one or more of a wand(s), a wraparound band, a bed, a booth, a panel, or a tube. In yet other examples, the light source can be positioned at select locations of a housing for a device. For example, the light source may run along a length of a bed, along an arc of top for a whole-body device, or a combination thereof. In some examples, the light source can be concentrated for a specific purpose, such as concentrating the light source in a facial region to improve cosmetic applications.

[0055] A light source can include a controller including a graphical user interface which can be configured to select a parameter of emission by the light source. The controller can be configured to adjust one or more of a pulse rate, power, a timer to activate or deactivate the power of the light therapy component or device, a type of the light source when multiple types are present, or a combination thereof. A light source can be coupled to a controller.

[0056] A gas generator of the system, in further detail, can be operable to provide a gas selected from oxygen, hydrogen, or both oxygen and hydrogen for the purpose of gas therapy. In some examples, the gas can be oxygen gas. In another example, the gas can be hydrogen gas. In yet other examples, a treatment session can include administration of both oxygen gas and hydrogen gas. The gas generator can include a regulator operable to adjust a concentration of oxygen administered in the oxygen gas, hydrogen administered in the hydrogen gas, or the combination thereof.

[0057] A gas generator can be configured to include a gas source, gas generation chamber, collection vessel, back-flow preventer, pressure vent, airflow vent, expiration valve, tubing, applicator, regulator, or any combinations thereof. In one example, as illustrated in FIG. 2, the gas generator 200 can include a gas generation chamber 210, a collection vessel 230, a back flow preventer 240, an air vent 250, an expiration valve 260, tubing 220, an applicator (e.g. mask or cannula) 270, or a combination thereof. In another example, the gas generator can include a gas generation chamber, a collection vessel, tubing, an applicator, or a combination thereof. In yet another example, the gas generator can include a gas generation chamber, tubing, an applicator, or a combination thereof. A gas generation chamber when present, in some examples, can include a housing, an exhaust vent, an outlet, or a combination thereof. A collection vessel when present, in further detail can include an inlet, an outlet, a pressure valve, an air intake valve, or a combination thereof. In some examples, an applicator can be selected from a face mask, nasal prongs, tubing, an open end of tubing, an inlet valve, a pressure relief port, or a combination thereof. In some examples, an applicator can be a face mask and the face mask can include a regulator, an expiration valve, and an inlet for tubing. Tubing attached to the applicator can be coupled to a gas source, gas generation chamber, and / or backflow preventor, or a combination thereof.

[0058] An additional example of a gas generator is illustrated in FIGS. 9A, 9B, and 9C. As illustrated in these figures the gas generator can include a gas reservoir 1, relief port 2, gas input ports 3. a gas generation chamber 4, applicator 5, and a variety of ports for receiving and expelling gas therefrom 6. 7, 8, and 9. When the gas reservoir fills with gas, gas can be expelled out of relief port 2 to reduce gas pressure at applicator 5. As a subject breathes port 9 can open to allow oxygen without pressure through port 6 to the subject via the applicator 5. The gas generator in FIGS. 9A, 9B. and 9C can include a valve system and ports which can permit a subject to exhale while gas can be simultaneously applied to the gas generator. In some examples, the gas generator can be configured to provide gas at a purity of about 85%, 90%, 95%, or 98%.

[0059] In some examples, the system can include additional elements. For example, the system can further include a heartrate accelerator. The system can be operable to allow for simultaneous use of the heartrate accelerator along with the PEMG, the light source, and the gas generator. The heartrate accelerator in further detail can be selected from exercise equipment, a heater, a chemical stimulant, or a combination thereof. Exemplary' exercise equipment can include a resistance cord or band, a weighted cable, a leg press, a thigh press, pressure plates, stationary bike pedals, a stationary climber, a treadmill, a hand grip, a pull-up bar, weights, or a combination thereof. In some examples, the exercise equipment can include a resistance band. In yet another example, the exercise equipment can include stationary bike pedals. The heartrate accelerator can be operable to increase a user’s heartrate to a rate of from about 90 bpm to about 160 bpm. In some aspects, the range can be from about 100 bpm to about 140 bpm. In other aspects, the range can be from about 110 bpm to about 130 bpm.

[0060] In some examples, the system can further include accessories for the heartrate accelerator. For example, the system can include a heartrate monitor in order to monitor a subject’s heartrate. The heartrate monitor may include an alarm to alert and direct a subject when to engage or disengage with the heartrate accelerator in order to maintain the subject's heart rate within a specified range (e.g. 120 bpm to 130 bpm) during use of the system. In another example, the system can include a stabilizing feature which can allow a subject to brace themselves when using exercising equipment and / or other interfaces or features to allow coupling of the exercise equipment to one or more other pieces of equipment within the system (e.g. hooks for elastic bands, mount for bicycle pedals, etc.). In certain examples, the stabilizing feature can include foot stops, shoulder stops, a head stop, or a combination thereof to stabilize the body of the subject while performing an exercise. In yet other examples, the system can further include a fan for circulating air and / or cooling a subject.

[0061] Generally, the PEMG, the light source, the gas generator, and the heartrate accelerator can be provided as a single unit, as individual units, or as a combination unit and a single unit. In some examples, the system can include more than one of the PEMG, light source, gas generator, and / or heart rate accelerator included into an integrated device or unit. A system 300, as illustrated in FIG. 3, can include a PEMG 310, a light source 320, a gas generator 330, and a heartrate accelerator 340 as individual units. For example, the PEMG can be a first device, the light source can be a second device, the gas generator can be a third device, and the heartrate accelerator, when present, can be a fourth device. In yet another example of the system 400, the PEMG 410 and the light source 420 can be combined in a first device 450A and the gas generator 430 can be a second device 450B, as illustrated in FIG. 4. In this combination for example, the PEMG and the light source can be present in a wraparound band, a mat, or a bed and the gas generator can be a separate treatment device. Other combinations of the basic component into integrated devices, including a combination of all components into a single device are also possible.

[0062] In some examples, the system can further include an electrolyte balance supplement. Electrolytes can support nerve, muscle, bone, heart, and brain health and can help muscle contractions, balance blood pH. regulate blood pressure, and control cellular fluid balance. The electrolyte balance supplement can include calcium, chloride, magnesium, magnesium bicarbonate, phosphorus, potassium, sodium, or the like. In one example, the electrolyte balance supplement can include magnesium bicarbonate. The electrolyte balance supplement can be configured as a drink, capsule, tablet, an intravenous fluid, or a combination thereof.

[0063] Further presented herein, is a device for enhancing well-being of a subject. The device, as illustrated in FIG. 5, can include a housing 502 operable to accept at least a portion of the subject; a pulsed electromagnetic energy generator (PEMG) 510 coupled to the housing and configured to generate and apply electromagnetic energy to at least a portion of the subject; a light source 520 coupled to the housing, said light source configured to emit and apply light having a wavelength ranging from about 380 nm to about 1,050 nm to at least a portion of the subject, and a gas generator interface 532 in the housing, said gas generator interface operable to fluidly communicate with a gas generator 530 to deliver a gas selected from oxygen gas, hydrogen gas, or both the oxygen gas and the hydrogen gas to at least a portion of the subject. The device can be operable to simultaneously administer electromagnetic energy, light, and gas to the subject. The device can be configured to administer the electromagnetic energy, the light, and the gas according to the parameters described above.

[0064] In some examples, the device can further include a heartrate accelerator. The housing can include an attachment mechanism, interface, or feature to allow coupling to permit coupling of the heartrate accelerator to the housing. Exemplary attachment mechanisms can include hooks, loops, snaps, poles, anchors, bolts, slots, buttons, and the like. The heartrate accelerator can include exercise equipment coupled to the attachment mechanism. The PEMG, light source, gas generator interface, gas generator, and heartrate accelerator can be integrated into the device and can operate as indicated in further detail above.

[0065] In some examples, the device can be a whole-body device. An exemplary wholebody device can include a housing with an interior chamber. The housing can be sized and shaped to accept a subject. For example, the housing may be a bed, an enclosed bed, or a chamber. When the housing is a chamber, the chamber can be shaped to house a subject while standing or sitting. In some examples, the housing can be shaped similar to a tanning bed or a stand-up tanning booth. A light source lights can be adjacent to the interior chamber and electromagnetic coils can be mounted beneath or beyond lights of the light source. The light source lights and the electromagnetic coils can be located along one or multiple sides of an interior chamber of the housing. In some examples, the wholebody device can further include a gas reservoir coupled thereto. The gas reservoir may be coupled to the whole-body device. In some examples, the gas reservoir can be directly coupled to the housing of the whole-body device. In yet other examples, the gas reservoir can be indirectly coupled to the device. Indirect couplings can include valves, tubing, ports, valves, backflow preventers, or the like.

[0066] An example of a whole-body device is illustrated in FIGS. 6A and 6B. As shown in FIGS. 6A and 6B a whole-body device for enhancing well-being of a subject 600 can include a housing 602, a PEMG 610, a PEMG modulator 612, a light source 620 with lights, a gas generator interface 632 which can be directly coupled or indirectly coupled to a gas generator 630. The devices as illustrated in FIGS. 6A and 6B can further include a face mask style applicator 634, gas reservoir 636, air intake valve 638, resistance bands 640, and a cooling fan 660. The figures include a dashed line of a subject for context of the whole-body devices in use. The whole-body device illustrated includes a variety of supplemental features, these supplemental features are described in further detail below. FIG. 6c illustrates a top view of a configuration for a gas generator, which illustrates an example of gas generator components.

[0067] Supplemental features can be included as part of the whole-body device. Supplemental features can include attachment mechanisms, heartrate accelerator, cooling fan, pillows, stabilizing features such as foot stops, and the like. In some examples, the device can further include a heartrate accelerator and cooling fan. The cooling fan may be coupled to the housing and can be operable to reduce a body temperature of the subject when positioned therein. FIGS. 7 A, 7B, and 7C illustrate additional examples of a wholebody device for enhancing well-being of a subject 700 including a housing 702, an attachment mechanism 704 such as anchor or hooks, a PEMG 710 with coils, a PEMG modulator 712, a light source 720, a gas generator 730, a face mask style applicator 734, a cooling fan 760, resistance bands 740, and foot stops 742. A subject while not part of the device is illustrated in dashed lines for reference.

[0068] In yet other examples, the device can be a point of application device. A point of application device can be operable to apply electromagnetic energy' and light to a targeted area of a subject's body. Point of application devices can be used to treat injuries, localized pain, chronic pain, enhance specific tissue performance, minimize fat cell size, and the like. Point of application devices can be a portable device or can be attached via atachment ports to a larger non-portable device. The point of application device can be sized and shaped to permit treatment of a localized area on a subject. For example, a portable application device 800, as illustrated in FIG. 8, can include an applicator such as a wraparound band 804 with atachment means 806 for securing said wraparound band. The wraparound band can incorporate the PEMG 810 and the light source 820. The point of application device can further include a controller 850 with handle. The controller can include a gas generator interface 832 operable to fluidly communicate with a gas generator 830 and nasal-prong style applicator 834. Other portable device configurations can include applicators configured as a wand or a mat.

[0069] Further presented herein is a method of promoting overall well-being in a subject. The method can include simultaneously administering pulsed electromagnetic energy, light, and gas to a subject for a period of time operable to assist in the subject’s overall well-being. The pulsed electromagnetic energy can have a magnetic flux with a density ranging from about 20 pT to about 100 pT and an electromagnetic frequency ranging from about 5 Hz to about 75 Hz. The light can have a wavelength ranging from about 380 nm to about 1,050 nm. The gas can be selected from oxygen gas, hydrogen gas, or both the oxygen gas and the hydrogen gas. The method can include administration using the system and / or devices discussed above but can also include simultaneous administration through other means. The administration can be within the parameters described above.

[0070] Administering pulsed electromagnetic energy can form a bio-magnetic field at a cellular level which can result in an intracellular and extracellular exchange of nutrients and wastes. This exchange can result in a negative surface charge on cells including red blood cells. The negative surface charge can inhibit cell aggregation due to electrostatic repulsive forces between the cells (circles in FIG. 10), as illustrated in FIG. 10. As illustrated in FIG. 10, aggregated cells 1002 increase in negative surface charge during exposure to electromagnetic energy as ions flow to and from a cell interior and extracellular space. As the surface charge decreases, the cells begin to experience repulsion due to repulsion from negative charges. Spacing and separation between individuals can increase during and following administration of pulsed electromagnetic energy as indicated in 1004, 1006, and 1008. In some examples, application of electromagnetic energy' to a subject can increase a cell charge in a subject to a voltage ranging from about -70 mV to about -100 mV, from about -70 mV to about -90 mV, or from about -80 mV to about -100 mV. In addition to separating aggregated cells, the cellular changes can promote release of nitric oxide which can then dilate blood vessels thereby increasing a space for cells to move and improving blood flow through the blood vessels. The improved blood flow can reduce inflammation and swelling. The electromagnetic energy can also target receptors in cells to vibrate cells in their own responding harmonic resonance, initiating cellular regulation of varying receptors in different cell types.

[0071] In addition to these cardiology related benefits, pulsed electromagnetic energy can balance circadian rhythms and stimulate production of melatonin and HGH thereby regulating sleep-wake cycles. Pulsed electromagnetic energy can also stimulate brain wave frequencies, production of tissue-protective proteins, and production of natural endorphins. The tissue protective proteins can prevent cell breakdown and increase healing in chronic injury which can affect bone and cartilage receptors. Pulsed electromagnetic energy can also hinder the growth of microorganisms, relieve muscle spasms by flowing calcium out of cells, increase mitochondria function, and stimulate osteoblast cells to produce bone matter. The pulsed electromagnetic energy can be applied as indicated above.

[0072] Administering light can provide light therapy (e.g. photo biomodulation “PBM” therapy). An effect of light therapy can depend on the wavelength applied, application ty pe, and application time period. In one example, light therapy can increase hemoglobin adhesion which can allow more oxygen to bind to cells. In addition, red light and nearinfrared light can be absorbed by the mitochondria protein Cytochrome c Oxidase (CcO), mitochondrial NO can dissociate from CcO and enhance oxygen transport; thereby, increasing free nitric oxide levels. CcO is one of the final enzymes in the respiratory electron transport chain and increased functioning of CcO can increase ATP production. Free nitric oxide can assist physiological processes including angiogenesis, wound healing, bone healing, thromboresistance, smooth muscle relaxation, and inflammation. In addition, there can be a subsequent decrease in reactive oxygen species which can decrease inflammation, cell death, and the like. Light therapy can also be useful for the treatment of pain (e.g., muscle pain or joint pain), stiffness, inflammation, arthritis, obesity, or combinations thereof in a subject. Light therapy can further treat skin conditions such as reducing stretch marks, wrinkles, psoriasis, scars, and acne, build collagen; stimulate blood circulation; lactic acid clearance; tissue regeneration; treat muscle or joint mobility including carpal tunnel and neuropathic pain; stimulate muscle regeneration; stimulate weight loss; treat an infection caused by a microorganism or pathogen; or any combination thereof. In some examples, the method can include pulsing light at a rate of from about 10 Hz to about 5 kHz. In yet other examples, light can be applied as indicated above.

[0073] Oxygen therapy can be used to increase an amount of oxygen available to a subject. Oxygen therapy can provide supplemental oxygen and / or extra oxygen to a subject. When free oxygen is provided in combination with electromagnetic energy and light therapy, a negative surface charge of red blood cells from application of the electromagnetic energy can space out the red blood cells, electromagnetic energy and light can also increase blood circulation, while gas therapy with oxygen can simultaneously increase an amount of oxygen readily available which can be adhered to hemoglobin and transported to cells, tissues, and organs throughout the body. Gas therapy with oxygen can provide oxygen to distal tissues which can be hypoxic. Increasing oxygen levels can stimulate brain activity, increase memory capacity, increase concentration, increase energy levels, improve strength, reduce stress and anxiety, alleviate headaches, improve sleep patterns, prevent lactic acid build up thereby relieving muscle soreness, and can strengthen the immune system. The administrating can include administration of the oxygen gas and the oxygen gas can be administered to the subject until an oxygen saturation level in blood of the subject ranges from about 90% to about 99%, from about 90% to about 95%, from about 92% to about 98%, or from about 95% to about 99%.

[0074] Administering hydrogen therapy can be used to increase an amount of hydrogen available to a subject. Molecular hydrogen can penetrate bio-membranes and reach cell nuclei. Molecular hydrogen can selectively scavenge free radicals such as hydroxy ions, peroxy -nitrite ions, and the like. Hydrogen can also downregulate pro-inflammatory and inflammatory cytokines and pro-apoptotic factors. Hydrogen can also increase expression of apoptotic factors. Accordingly, administering hydrogen can decrease the presence of free radicals, reduce inflammation, reduce cell death, and alter gene expression. The administrating can include administration of the hydrogen gas and the hydrogen gas can be administered to the subject until a hydrogen saturation level in blood of the subject ranges from about 5 pM to about 40 pM, from about 5 pM to about 25 pM, from about 10 pM to about 30 pM, or from about 20 pM to about 40 pM.

[0075] Simultaneous application of electromagnetic energy', light, and gas can enhance the results such that the effect is more than a simple additive result. For example, electromagnetic energy’ can increase a negativity of a blood cell; thereby, separating clumping blood cells from another and exposing their surface for further interaction. Simultaneous light therapy can increase hemoglobulin adhesion and blood circulation of the separated blood cells. When electromagnetic energy and light therapy are applied at the same time, the resulting beneficial effects can be greater than when electromagnetic energy and light therapy are applied sequentially. The light therapy can increase hemoglobulin adhesion of the blood cells, while the electromagnetic energy separates clumping blood cells, which allows oxygen to interact with more blood cell surfaces. Thus, more oxygen can adhere to more blood cells when electromagnetic energy and light therapy area applied simultaneously. Further, simultaneous gas therapy can increase an amount of oxygen and / or hydrogen that is available to be coupled to a cell surface or absorbed into a cell; a rate at which the oxygen and / or hydrogen is released from the cell to tissues and / or organs; and along with increased circulation, a rate at which additional oxygen and / or hydrogen is coupled to or absorbed by the cell. Simultaneous application of these therapies can increase an overall effect of each of the electromagnetic energy, light, and gas therapy beyond a simple additive effect because simultaneous application ensures that the effect of therapy at its peak effectiveness when additional therapy that is correlated thereto is applied.

[0076] As explained above, the electromagnetic energy and light therapy can work together to provide increased hemoglobulin adhesion and the provide increase surface area of cells that can interact with oxygen. When oxygen therapy is added to these, the amount of oxygen available increases and this allows more oxygen to adhere to blood cells than would be possible otherwise. The electromagnetic energy and light therapy would be less effective without the oxygen therapy because there would not be as much oxygen available to adhere to the blood cells, despite the increased adhesion and increase cell surface area provided by the electromagnetic energy and light therapy. Similarly, oxygen therapy would be less effective without the electromagnetic energy and light therapy, because the blood cells would not be as capable of adhering to the additional oxygen provided by the oxygen therapy.

[0077] In some examples, the method can further include accelerating a heartrate of a subject during promoting of the subject’s overall well-being. Accelerating a heartrate of a subject can occur through various methods. For example, a subject’s heartrate can be accelerated by having a subject exercise, increasing a body temperature of the subject, having a subject ingest a chemical that increases the subject’s heartrate, or a combination thereof. Increasing a subject’s heart rate can further increase blood circulation; thereby, increasing an amount of oxygen, hydrogen, and other nutrients flowing to cells, tissues. organs, and the like. Accordingly, accelerating an individual’s heart rate can further increase an efficacy of one or more of the electromagnetic energy, light therapy, and gas therapy, including by delivering altered or modified blood cells (e.g. an O2 saturated red blood cell) to other cells (e.g. muscle and organ cells), while the blood cells carry’ an optimal payload and also speeding the intercellular transport of other cellular agents or products induced or accelerated by the electromagnetic, light, and / or gas therapy.

[0078] Further, an accelerated heart rate can also allow waste released from cells due to an increase in cellular respiration to be carried more quickly from the body. An accelerated heart rate can also increase intra-arterial pressure. An increase in intra-arterial pressure in a subject's lungs can assist in oxygen loading. The increase in oxygen loading along with the increase in hemoglobulin adhesion from light therapy, blood cell separation from electromagnetic energy’, and gas therapy which can make oxygen more readily available can allow for super-saturation of red blood cells with oxygen while increasing circulation permitting oxygen to be carried to tissues where it can be used, and the circulation cycle can continue.

[0079] The simultaneous application of electromagnetic energy, light therapy, gas therapy, and accelerated heart rate can provide synergistic beneficial effects that are greater than the effects of all these therapies when performed sequentially. As explained above, electromagnetic energy and light therapy can be effective for separating clumping blood cells and increasing the hemoglobulin adhesion of the blood cells, but these effects cannot increase the actual adhesion of oxygen to the blood cells as much without the addition of gas therapy. When gas therapy is performed simultaneously with electromagnetic energy and light therapy, then the amount of oxygen adhered to blood cells can be increased more than when these therapies are performed sequentially. Although these therapies can increase the amount of oxygen adhered to blood cells, the addition of simultaneous heart rate acceleration can increase the amount of oxygen adhered to blood cells even further. As explained above, accelerating the heart rate can increase intra-arterial pressure, which can increase oxygen transfer from the lungs to the blood. Therefore, even more oxygen can be adhered to blood cells when heart rate acceleration is added to the other therapies. This effect would not occur without all the therapies being performed simultaneously.

[0080] Heart rate acceleration also has another beneficial synergistic effect. In addition to further increase the amount of oxygen adhering to blood cells, the accelerated heart rate can also increase circulation to various tissues in the body that normally receive much less circulation. This allows the increased oxygen to be delivered to tissues throughout the body that normally receive much less oxygen. If heart rate acceleration is performed sequentially, such as exercising after or before applying the electromagnetic energy, light therapy, and gas therapy, then the heart rate acceleration can still have the effect of increasing circulation to tissues of the body, but the blood would not have the high level of oxygen cause by the synergistic effect of performing all these therapies simultaneously. Therefore, less oxygen would be present in the blood to be delivered to the tissues.

[0081] In some examples, the simultaneous application of electromagnetic energy, light therapy, gas therapy, and heart rate acceleration can result in an increase oxygen saturation level in the blood. In certain examples, the oxygen saturation level produced by the simultaneous application of these therapies can be from about 1 % to about 50% greater than the oxygen saturation level produced by performing the same therapies sequentially. In further examples, the simultaneous application of these therapies can increase oxygen saturation by 1% to 25%, or 1% to 10%, or 10% to 50%, or 10% to 25% compared to the oxygen saturation that would be produced by performing these therapies sequentially.

[0082] Beneficial synergistic effects can be realized by performing the various therapies described herein in various combinations. For example, light therapy can be combined with pulsed electromagnetic energy. In another example, light therapy can be combined with oxygen therapy. In yet another example, light therapy can be combined with accelerated heartrate. In further examples, pulsed electromagnetic energy', light therapy, oxygen therapy, and accelerated heartrate can be combined and applied simultaneously to a subject.

[0083] Another example device can be a whole body light therapy device that combines light therapy with accelerated heartrate. The device can include a housing operable to accept a body of a subject. In certain examples, the housing can be a bed in which the subject can lay, and the bed can include a cover that can close over the subject. The housing can also include a heartrate accelerator attachment mechanism configured to couple a heartrate accelerator to the housing. The device can also include a light source coupled to the housing. The light source can be configured to emit and apply light having a wavelength ranging from about 380 nm to about 1,050 nm to at least a portion of the subject. In certain examples, the light source can be configured to apply’ light to the entire body of the subject, from 360° around the subject. In further examples, the heartrate accelerator used in the whole body light therapy device can include any type of heartrate accelerator described above. In certain examples, the heartrate accelerator can include exercise equipment configured to allow the subject to perform an exercise concurrently with receiving light therapy from the light source. In some particular examples, the exercise equipment can include a resistance band, a weighted cable, a leg press, a thigh press, stationary pedals, a stationary climber, a treadmill, a hand grip, a pull-up bar, weights, or a combination thereof.

[0084] The heartrate accelerator attachment mechanism can be formed as an integral part of the housing of the device, or as a part that is coupled to the housing. The heartrate accelerator attachment mechanism can be any feature that allows a heartrate accelerator, such as exercise equipment, to be coupled to the housing. In some examples, the heartrate accelerator attachment feature can include an anchor, a hook, a loop, a snap, a pole, a bolt, a slot, a button, or a combination thereof. In a particular example, the heartrate accelerator attachment mechanism can be configured to secure a resistance band to be usable by the subject concurrently with receiving light therapy from the light source.

[0085] The heartrate accelerator attachment mechanism can be positioned on the housing at a suitable location for the particular type of heartrate accelerator to be used. For example, an attachment mechanism for attaching a resistance band can be positioned in a location that allows the subject to pull the resistance band away from the attachment mechanism to stretch the band, thereby providing resistance. In some examples, the attachment mechanism can be positioned at the feet of the subject, or at the head of the subject, or at a side of the subject. When such attachment mechanisms are used to couple a resistance band, the subject can pull the resistance band away from the attachment mechanism. Thus, the subject can exercise by pulling a resistance band up away from the feet of the subject, or down away from the head of the subject, or to the side away from an opposite side of the subject, depending on the location of the attachment mechanism. Other positions for the attachment mechanism can be used depending on the type of exercise equipment to be coupled to the housing. An exercise bike pedal or stair stepper can be attached near or at the feet of the subject. A pull up bar can be coupled to the housing above the subject so that the subject can grasp the pull-up bar and perform pull- up exercises.

[0086] The housing can also include a subject stabilizing feature operable to stabilize the body of the subject. This can prevent the subject’s body from moving in an undesired way while the subject performs an exercise. For example, if the subject exercises by pulling on resistance bands away from the feet of the subject, then the subject can tend to slide in the direction of the feet of the subject because of the pulling resistance from the resistance bands. In this case, the housing can include foot stops as a subject stabilizing feature to prevent the subject from sliding. Similarly, if the resistance bands are secured at the head of the subject and the subject pulls the bands away from the head of the subject, then the housing can include a stabilizing feature operable to prevent the subject from sliding in the direction of the head of the subject. For example, shoulder stops or a head stop can be used to prevent this sliding. Other types of subject stabilizing features can also be used depending on the particular type of exercise performed by the subject.

[0087] In another example, a system for enhancing well-being of a subject can include: a pulsed electromagnetic energy generator (PEMG) configured to generate pulsed electromagnetic energy, a light source configured to emit light having a wavelength ranging from about 380 nm to about 1,050 nm, a gas generator operable to provide oxygen therapy, and a heartrate accelerator operable to accelerate a heartrate of the subject. The system can be operable to simultaneously apply the pulsed electromagnetic energy, the light, the oxygen therapy, and the heartrate acceleration to the subject. The heartrate accelerator, the PEMG, and the gas generator can each be coupled to the light source in any combination. In certain examples, the gas generator may not be coupled to the light source, but can be a separate unit that feeds oxygen into the light source. For example, the gas generator can provide oxygen through a hose and face mask that is worn by a subject positioned inside the light source. The gas generator can also provide hydrogen gas in addition to oxygen gas in some examples.

[0088] Another example method of promoting overall well-being in a subject can include simultaneously administering a puled electromagnetic energy, light therapy, oxygen therapy, and accelerated heartrate to the subject for a period of time. In some examples, the pulsed electromagnetic energy has a magnetic flux with a density ranging from about 20 pT to about 100 pT and a frequency ranging from about 5 Hz to about 75 Hz. In certain examples, administering the pulsed electromagnetic energy to the subject can reduce an effect of dirty electromagnetic frequencies on the subject. As used herein, “di rty electromagnetic frequencies” can refer to high frequencies that can be disordered and which can increase inflammation in the body and cause other deleterious health effects. In further examples, the light therapy used in the method can include exposing the subject to light having a wavelength from about 380 nm to about 1.050 nm. In still further examples, the accelerated heartrate can be caused by the subject performing exercise. In further examples, the method can also include administering hydrogen gas simultaneously with the oxygen therapy.

[0089] The improvement in overall well-being can be far reaching. Improvement in overall well-being can include assisting in tissue recovery, improving cardiovascular health, accelerating cellular respiration, increasing micro-circulation, improving a neurological condition, improving a skeletal system condition, improving a skin condition, or a combination thereof.

[0090] In one example, the improvement in overall well-being can be in tissue recovery. The improvement can include reducing inflammation, promoting wound healing, promoting tissue repair, building collagen, producing nitric oxide, improving circulation, bringing oxygen to damaged tissue, bringing nutrients to damaged tissue, dilating blood vessels, stimulating production of tissue-protective proteins, stimulating cell growth, hindering growth of microorganisms, adjusting a cellular charge to alter calcium flow, stimulating osteoblast cell activity, regulating blood pH, or a combination thereof.

[0091] In another example, the improvement in overall well-being can be an improvement in cardiovascular health. The improvement can include reducing inflammation, producing nitric oxide, improving circulation, increasing oxygen content in the blood, dilating blood vessels, regulating blood pH, separating blood cell clumps, reducing free radical levels, or a combination thereof.

[0092] In yet another example, the improvement in overall well-being can include accelerating cellular respiration. The accelerating can include increasing sodium ion transport, increasing calcium ion transport, improving amino acid influx, improving vitamin transport, transporting unsaturated fatty acids, expelling cellular CO2, expelling cellular water, expelling cellular free radicals, expelling cellular waste products, improving mitochondrial functioning, dissociating mitochondrial nitric oxide from cytochrome c-oxidase, or a combination thereof.

[0093] In a further example, the improvement in overall well-being can include increasing micro-circulation. The increase can include increasing oxygen transport, increasing removal of toxins, increasing blood flow, dilating blood vessels, modifying electro-chemical flux of a cell, reducing oxidative stress, or a combination thereof.

[0094] In one example, the improvement in overall well-being can include improving a neurological condition. The improvement can include a reduction in a level of, a reduction in symptoms of, or an alleviation of the symptoms of the neurological condition. The neurological condition can include depression, Alzheimer’s, dementia. stroke, anxiety, increasing neuron formation, transcranial magnetic stimulation, reducing inflammation, increasing blood flow, dilating blood vessels, treating carpal tunnel, balancing circadian rhythms, stimulating production of melatonin, stimulating production of HGH, stimulating brain wave frequencies, stimulating the production of natural endorphins, or a combination thereof.

[0095] In an example, the improvement in overall well-being can include improving a skeletal system condition. The skeletal system condition can include increasing osteoblast activity, increasing osteoclast proliferation, acute fracture repair, osteoarthritis, osteopenia, osteoporosis, increasing bone density, increasing cartilage grow th, or a combination thereof.

[0096] In another example, the improvement in overall well-being can include improving a skin condition. The improvement can include reducing an appearance of stretch marks, reducing an appearance of w rinkles, reducing psoriasis, reducing an appearance of scars, reducing an amount of acne, reducing inflammation, reducing edema, improving skin complexion, stimulating collagen production, improving blood circulation, or a combination thereof.
