Merry Christmas from the Vielight team! 🎄❄️

While Santa's "red nose" might look like a festive nod to Rudolph, it represents a significant milestone in our mission to advance photobiomodulation (PBM).

As we close out the year, we are reflecting on the successful results of our 294-person clinical trial, the largest successful PBM clinical trial, ever. These results paved the way for the Vielight RX Plus to be recognized by Health Canada as a licensed medical device for upper respiratory viral recovery.

By leveraging the nasal network to deliver optimized red light energy, we are able to support the body’s systemic resilience and natural recovery processes.

Wishing you and your family a healthy, restful, and resilient holiday season. 🎅✨

Take care of who took care of you.

At some point, we start to notice the people who raised us changing. They don’t move quite as fast. They ask for help with things they used to do with ease. They forget small details, or they get tired sooner than they used to. It’s hard to notice at first, but eventually it hits us.

The people who once took care of us now need a little care themselves.

It’s a strange feeling. We grow up thinking of our parents or grandparents as strong and steady, the people who always knew what to do. And then, the balance changes.

Suddenly we’re the ones reminding them of appointments, helping with errands, or just being there to listen. It eventually becomes a daily part of our life.

Taking care of them doesn’t have to be perfect or complicated. Sometimes it’s as simple as sitting together, sharing a meal, or picking up the phone just to check in.

It’s showing patience on the days when things take a little longer. It’s choosing to be present, even during the tough moments.

And while it can be emotional or exhausting at times, it’s also incredibly meaningful.

These are the people who shaped us, supported us, and loved us through every version of ourselves.

• Quality-of-life questionnaires.

Eligibility:
• Neurologist-diagnosed PSP.
• Age 40+.
• Available for two assessments 12 months apart.
• English proficiency for consent and activities.
