C. Are Light & Sound Instruments For Everyone?
You must need to know if light and sound is safe for you to use. Generally speaking, the answer is yes, when used properly and with understanding. For example, do not listen to a session half way through then go out and drive a car. Allow the session to end, bringing your awareness back to your normal low beta state, before performing tasks involving heavy machinery. Do not use light and sound without professional medical supervision if you have epilepsy, heart trouble, latent seizure tendencies or are photosensitive. Some sessions promote the emergence of suppressed events and issues. If you have never had therapy or have trouble handling these issues, be very careful in choosing sessions.
Before you purchase a light and sound instrument, ask to see the owners manual. Review it. Give the section that contains the at-risk warning special attention. Be sure to read the disclaimer. Just like every other professional, manufacturers must take precautions to protect their right to produce these instruments. But you have the right to protect yourself. Read what they say regarding those who could be at risk of possible adverse effects from pulsed light stimulation. If you find yourself as an at risk individual, seek advice from your physician before using a pulsed light device.
Remember: everyone is different. No two people think exactly alike. The effects from using light and sound equipment will vary from individual to individual. So play it safe. If you have questions, get the answers before experiencing light and sound sessions.
