1.3. <strong>Laser</strong>Pen® principle of function<br />
The <strong>Laser</strong>Pen® will emit monochromatic, coherent laser light to the cells and tissue. The photon energy<br />
will be absorbed by the cells, which shall lead e.g. to an improvement of the metabolism.<br />
| 3/27
Additionally special impulse frequencies are applied (acc. to Dr. NOGIER, France, BAHR, Germany) in<br />
order to stimulate the body, cell and tissue.<br />
The special features of the <strong>Laser</strong>Pen® are proven through several years of intensive research and offer an<br />
exact supply of photon energy to the area being treated.<br />
Further information on the wide range of uses for laser therapy can be found in technical literature and<br />
with scheduled seminars <strong>RJ</strong>-LASER GmbH (www.rj-laser.com).<br />
