PROLOGUE
First and
foremost I would like to thank The Health and Wellness
Organization for believing in us and granting us the
privilege of presenting our findings on their website. I
would also like to send a special thanks to Mr. Robert
Distefano and Mr. Robert Nelson for having introduced me to
the art of phototherapy. I hope you find this
presentation educational, insightful and informative.
PCI Therapy Defined - Photonic Corpuscular Irradiation Therapy
 |
The process
of exposing a small amount of blood in a controlled sterile
chamber to ultraviolet rays. |
|
|
The blood is irradiated
while passing through a sterile, flat, cylindrical channel
known as a cuvette. |
|
|
The blood never comes into contact with the ambient.
|
FUNCTION
|
|
Like any
other form of therapy the success of PCI is dependant on
dosage, |
|
|
and The curative potential of PCI is derived from the belief
that human blood cells can be activated and/or stimulated
while exposed to ultraviolet irradiation. |
