Photobiomodulation is offered as a general-wellness practice. It is not a medical treatment and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. NFL is not a medical provider and makes no medical-device, CE or MDR-authorisation claim for the equipment used. If you have a medical condition, consult a qualified healthcare professional.
At Neurofeedback Luxembourg we use photobiomodulation equipment made by Vielight. This page explains who Vielight is, why we chose their devices, and what the hardware does.
Why we partner with Vielight
Vielight is an established designer of light-based wellness devices with a long track record in transcranial and intranasal photobiomodulation. When we looked for equipment to use inside our practice, three things mattered: hardware that is well documented and consistent, a design simple enough to run the same way every session, and a maker that publishes clear technical detail. Vielight met those criteria, which is why their devices sit alongside neurofeedback in our wellness routines.
What the device is
The Vielight systems we use are transcranial-intranasal devices. "Transcranial" means light delivered at the scalp; "intranasal" means a small applicator resting at the nostril. The two paths run together in one timed program. The unit is non-invasive and self-contained: it is positioned, a fixed program runs, and the person sits comfortably for the duration. There is nothing to adjust mid-session and nothing complicated to learn.
The specifications
Vielight publishes clear technical detail, and we share it openly so you know exactly what is used:
- 810 nm near-infrared light — just beyond visible red, the wavelength the devices are built around.
- Transcranial + intranasal delivery — light at the scalp and the nasal passage in a single routine.
- Alpha and Gamma pulse settings — a slower pattern around 10 Hz ("Alpha") and a faster one around 40 Hz ("Gamma"), used to structure different session styles.
- About a 20-minute fixed program — short, consistent, and easy to repeat from visit to visit.
Photobiomodulation itself is an active and still-inconclusive area of scientific research.
How we use it at Neurofeedback Luxembourg
In our practice the Vielight routine is one structured, light-based step within a wider wellness visit. It often runs alongside neurofeedback and everyday habits such as sleep, movement and daily structure. We keep it simple and consistent, and review it with each person over time so it suits their week rather than a fixed schedule.
What a session is like
A session is calm and unremarkable by design. The provider explains the equipment and the timing, the light program runs quietly, and you can ask questions or pause at any point. Some people use the time for stillness, others for slow breathing or a short reflection afterwards. The point is a clear, comfortable, repeatable routine rather than a dramatic sensation.
Frequently asked questions
What is the Vielight Neuro? A transcranial-intranasal photobiomodulation device using near-infrared light at around 810 nm, with Alpha (~10 Hz) and Gamma (~40 Hz) settings.
What does a session involve? The device is positioned, a roughly 20-minute program runs, and you sit comfortably throughout. The provider explains each step.
How does it fit with neurofeedback? It is used as a separate, light-based step within the same brain-wellness visit — often a settling routine before or after neurofeedback.
Can I use it at home? Vielight devices are consumer-available; in our practice we use them inside a guided routine so you have support and clear expectations. We are happy to explain the options.
Is the Vielight offered for medical use? No. It is offered here strictly as general-wellness equipment, not approved or authorised for any medical purpose. If you have a health concern, please speak with a qualified healthcare professional.
In short
Vielight gives us simple, well-documented equipment we can run the same way every time — and we are happy to walk you through it.
