Although
now retired as a veterinary surgeon, Dr McLaren is one of Australia’s
top qualified Vets. His Acupuncture studies led him
to be accredited with the International Veterinary Acupuncture Society,
about as high a qualification in acupuncture that a vet can receive. He was intrigued by the healing
ability of light and went on to develop his Photonic Torch. The follow on from this was that, as
he was able to treat his equine patients using Photonic Therapy with
obvious ease and with such good results, and no needles, that his farmer clients began
to ask if he could relieve some of their pain in backs/knees etc,
and so his human practice began. He
then under took the university degrees of Graduate Diploma in Acupuncture,
Master of Applied Science in Clinical Practice, and at the same time
at another university studied Chinese language (Mandarin) for two
years, which enabled him to study with three Chinese Masters.
Until
recently how and why acupuncture worked was not fully understood,
and could only be explained in terms of ancient, non-scientific,
conceptual terms. Because
of the pain relief experienced by his animal patients and farmers,
plus his University research, (the last decade or so, has seen an
explosion in knowledge and technology), it has allowed Dr Brian McLaren
to be instrumental in explaining scientifically, for the first time,
how acupuncture worked, and it can now be shown to be a form of applied
neuro-physiology. Consequently
he has been able to develop and introduce this rational,
scientifically advanced method of non invasive “acupuncture” treatment, using
ordinary non-coherent red light (not laser), that is pain free, sterile,
safe and very effective…a complementary
medical treatment, which we know today as the McLaren Method of Photonic
Therapy
The method of treating disease and injury
with light is as old as mankind itself, but Dr
Brian McLaren discovered that by using monochromatic light to classical
acupuncture points, the energy of the light (photons) was transformed
into electrical energy by the layer of connective tissue under the
skin (Collagen) This
electrical energy is transmitted to the brain by the nerves, causing
the brain to release particular hormones and other chemicals to relieve
pain, increase the immune response, and promote healing. It
is non
invasive, safe and simple.
How
do I treat my horse?
The
McLaren Photonic Therapy system is based on the use of a specific
torch-like instrument. It
produces 185mW of energy in the 660nm wavelength; it is then turned
on and placed on the skin. This allows a horse to be treated using
only 5 to 10 seconds per point.
Normally it takes only
4 to 6 treatments to fix all but the most serious problem. Treatments are given every second
day. You may give a daily treatment and, even
though you can do no harm, it will not make the horse heal any faster,
though, in the case of a fresh injury, it will assist in removing
pain.
Light
energy (photons) is
transformed into electrical energy by the connective tissue under
our skin. This electrical energy is transmitted
to the brain by the nerves. Stimulating
specific combinations of points on the skin will cause the brain
to release particular hormones and other chemicals which relieve
pain, increase the immune response and promote healing.
The
McLaren Method of Diagnosis and Therapy
The
McLaren Method of Diagnosis and Therapy uses
broad band 660nm red light to provide the photons required to painlessly
and safely stimulate tissue. Visible
light is a small part of the electro-magnetic spectrum and ranges
between 400-700nm. Wavelengths below 400nm (ultra violet) have high
energy and do not penetrate deeply into tissue. Above
700nm, in the infrared range, there is less energy per photon and
longer treatment times would be required.
The Human manual is included in the Kit,
as Human Transpositional points are used on the animal, and it is
suggested these points be used post diagnostically. The
Photonic Therapy Torch, like any good tool, has been designed for
proper and intelligent use as a complimentary home help therapy. It is not intended to replace primary
health care or professional consultation and diagnosis ie your
Doctor’s or Vet’s advice.
Liz has received intensive training from
Dr Brian McLaren and is at present the only level 3 practitioner
in UK. She is planning to hold a two day
school on the 24th and 25th Sept, 2005, at
Gales Photonic Therapy, in Denbighshire, N.Wales. She
is available for Lectures, Workshops and Demonstrations.
