Canada  SOTA is a good company and they are truly happy to help in any way they can. I am very grateful to have found the LightWorks device. I knew I needed an infrared light unit and the best one I found for the best price was the SOTA LightWorks. If someone told me I couldn't have this unit, I'd be really distraught. This technology is priceless to me. There are no ifs, ands or buts about this - it works!  Lynn Clow
British Columbia, Canada After applying Modes C and E for 15 minutes each on his spine using the Infrared side of the Hand Paddle. I watched Charlie go from a dog who wouldn't go next door to visit his friends to the bouncy little guy I once had. It's just amazing what the LightWorks LED light can do! I placed the LightWorks device underneath his T-shirt on Infrared automatic cycle and went to go pick up take-out. By the time I got back ... he was telling me how much better he was feeling. This is from the guy who never tells me that anything feels better. Barbara C.
New Hampshire, USA I have bought five LightWorks Infrared instruments. We gave the SOTA LightWorks to all of our children. Most of them use it regularly. I find the LightWorks is most helpful. I have many, many examples of its use. Thanks for making them. I have now used the LightWorks daily, usually for an hour, for about 6 weeks. I am most pleased with the results. I discovered the Near Infrared side worked best on my knee. I am very satisfied with your product. I am well pleased with the LightWorks LW2 ... I thank you, SOTA. I think it is a great product!

The LightWorks Hand Paddle included with the unit has 60 Red LEDs on one side. On the other side, there are 57 Near Infrared (NIR) LED lights plus 3 Red ones for a visible indication that the NIR LEDs are on. NIR light is invisible to the human eye as it lies just beyond the range of visible light.
The ancient tradition of applying specific colors for general health and well-being is an option with the LightWorks. Two additional Hand Paddles are available—one with Orange and Yellow LED light and the other with Green and Blue LED light. | LightWorks Hand Paddle Set  |
As we understand it, here is how it works: The LightWorks combines the ancient wisdom of color and light with the gentle frequencies and LEDs of modern technology to gently awaken the body’s natural tendency towards general health and well-being.
Our body cells rely on light. We absorb light through the sun and our food. Light is a source of energy that works with the natural flow of electricity within. Our electrical system produces energy for our bodies.
In addition to LED technology, the LightWorks also has options for the LED light to be pulsed with specific frequencies. The purpose for applying these frequencies is to work with the body’s natural healthy vibrations.
A Wellness Lifestyle incorporates a holistic approach to living life in a way that supports abundant health. A holistic or wellness approach views our bodies on many levels which may include: mechanical, chemical, mental, emotional, energetic, spiritual, as well as electrical.
All living things are electrical in nature. We view the SOTA Products as a way of working with the body's natural electricity or energy, contributing to Wellness. This is similar to how exercise, eating good nutritious foods, juicing and meditating all help nourish the body and contribute to a healthy lifestyle.
Apply the Hand Paddle directly on the skin to any area of the body. Clothing will block the light. The LightWorks offers two options to apply the LED light and the healthy frequencies:
 | Automatic Option. This setting cycles through all the Modes—Constant plus each of the seven healthy frequencies. This option is timed for 24 minutes. |
 | Manual Option. Select one of 8 Modes: The Constant Mode outputs LED light only—without any added frequency. Modes A through G output both LED light and a specific healthy frequency. Each Mode operates for 20 minutes. |
Consistent or daily use may be needed to experience benefits.

Enjoying fresh air and sunlight has been recognized for health benefits over the centuries. An important part of treatment at early health spas was exposure to natural sunlight for a period of time each day.  If it was cold, patients would be bundled in blankets to sit in the sun, or dressed warmly to walk about, while they exposed their faces to the sun. The sun bathes the Earth in a broad range of electromagnetic frequencies. We see some of these rays as visible light. All light is not visible. Just beyond each end of the visible color spectrum are colors that are not visible to the naked eye—Ultraviolet light at one end and Infrared light at the other end.
The sun nourishes us with light that includes a full spectrum of color through our eyes, our skin and through our foods. In addition, however, we are subjected to artificial lighting, processed or dead foods, poisonous food additives, toxic chemicals in our air and water, off-gassing from furniture and building materials, and harried lifestyles. That’s enough to give us a quick picture why we may lack light or specific colors as nutrients.
Here’s a story that reveals how we depend on light: “A young doctor, a hunter, observed that in some years, prize-winning deer antlers were much larger than usual, but in others, even the very best of the prize-winning antlers were far below average in size. The physical development of young animals and ducks in the wild matched in degrees the size of the deer antlers, or lack of it. Investigation showed that the years in which the deer grew large antlers and in which there was good physical development of young animals in the wild, were clearly years with high rates of sunshine hours.” (Flax Oil, Johanna Budwig)
Live food as in fresh vegetables and fruits are a major source of light. For example, through the process of photosynthesis, plants store the energy of sunlight. Chewing starts the digestive process to release the stored light to nourish us. Native cultures recognized how the color of herbs and flowers had specific healing qualities.
We offer three Hand Paddles, featuring LED lights for use with the LightWorks. Each Hand Paddle features two colors—Red/Near Infrared, Orange/Yellow and Blue/Green.
Color has been used for health for centuries. Each color is known for specific properties and benefits. Nature provides light and specific colors for our health in the form of food—vegetables, fruits and protein foods—and herbs.
The colors of the clothes we choose as well as our home décor also influence us. For example, blue is known to be calming, relaxing and a good color to foster communication. A room with predominantly blue colors will create calm. Red, on the other hand, is known to be vitalizing and a good color to increase excitement or emotions. This means a room with predominantly Red colors has a energizing effect.
The Hand Paddle included with the LightWorks unit offers these two choices:
Red Side In addition to a long history of use, Red as applied through LED light, has been recently researched for benefits to human life. Red is considered a hot or stimulating color. In nature, the element hydrogen is Red. | | Stimulating, forceful and vigorous. Red is the color of power and vitality with a cheering effect. Traditionally, Red is thought to be related to nutritional metabolism, blood, liver and skin. | Near Infrared Side The benefits of the use of Near Infrared (NIR) LED light caught public attention with NASA experiments using NIR LED light for plant growth in space. This research was expanded to apply NIR LED light to benefit humans. | | NIR light is not strictly defined as a color as it is not visible to the human eye. Three of the LEDs on this side of the Hand Paddle are Red to give a visible indication that the NIR LED lights are working. | | Traditionally, NIR light is thought to be related to the eyes (from the side of the head), muscles, nerves, immune function and skin. |
To understand the use of frequencies for well-being, general health and relaxation, it is first necessary to recognize that everything, absolutely everything, is vibrating … even seemingly solid materials are made up of atoms that are vibrating. Our bodies are composed of cells and surrounding material that is constantly vibrating. Frequency is used to explain the different rates at which objects and cells vibrate. The speed of vibration is measured by the number of cycles an object vibrates in one second. Cycles per second are expressed as Hertz (Hz).
Vibration is the language of Nature. Animals and plants are usually more sensitive to vibrations than we humans. Sensitivity to vibrations enables birds to navigate and migrate with incredible accuracy. Insects are attracted to the vibration of plants. For example, when the immune systems of plants are weakened from lack of nutrients and too many toxins in soils, damaging insects are attracted to destroy the plants.
Vibration produces both sound and light. Light is produced by higher frequencies or more rapid vibrations than sounds. In addition to light that we can see, there is light below and above the visual spectrum. Light that we see ranges from 4x1014 to 7.12x1014 Hz. These frequencies are in the GigaHertz range. To simplify, rather than express such high numbers as Hertz, light is usually measured by wavelength or nanometers. This diagram shows how the wavelength at the Red end of the light spectrum is longer than wavelengths at the Violet end. The higher the frequency the shorter the wavelength—Red light vibrates more slowly than Violet light.
Sound is produced by slower frequencies than light. It is easier to express the electromagnetic frequencies of sound using Hertz. In addition to audible sound, there is infrasound that is below the hearing threshold and ultrasound that is above the human hearing spectrum. Sound that we hear ranges from 20 Hz to 20,000 Hz. The LightWorks frequencies, although silent, fall within the range of sound frequencies. | | LightWorks Modes and Frequency Chart | | Tableau de modes et frequences du LightWorks | | Gráfico de modos y frecuencias del LightWorks | | Sharing your Experience with the SOTA Products helps others. | The LightWorks offers two monochromatic colors or single frequencies of light—Red and Near Infrared LEDs. | | The unit offers 60 LEDs on each side of the Hand Paddle for a total of 120 LEDs. | | In addition to a Constant setting to apply LED light only, the LightWorks offers the option to apply each of the seven healthy frequencies through the LED lights. | | Four additional colors are available as an option.

There are two comparisons that are generally made when comparing the LightWorks unit to other light products on the market. The first comparison is the output – stated as milliwatts or in some cases millicandella. The second comparison is to compare LED light to Laser light.
When comparing outputs, there is much confusion surrounding the correct way to measure the output of LED light units. Some manufacturers of LED light units are erroneously describing the light output of their units. There are three ways to describe LED lights—only one of the ways actually describes the light output or value. | More
