Our principles of scientific application
1. Credibility
Healyan applies research that has been extensively tested by top universities, hospitals, and organizations. Since 2022, audio-visual research has achieved breakthrough designation and passed two FDA trials.
2. Effectiveness
Visual trial results have successfully achieved statistical significance, amounting to a significant breakthrough in improving immediate and long term performance and recovery.
3. Extensive Testing
Visual stimulation has completed over 40,000+ sessions across dozens of studies with zero unanticipated effects across 1,000+ users.
4. Enjoyment and Safety
All testing to date has shown audio-visual stimulation to be safe, non-invasive, and well-tolerated for those comfortable with light.
How Healyan uses light to improve the mind
What's the Issue?
- After the age of 50, the brain’s support system starts to wear down. Microglia—the cells that keep neurons healthy—lose their rhythm.
- As a result, neurons misfire, and key structures like myelin (which speeds up neuron signals) and synapses (which connect neurons) begin to break down.
- This breakdown makes it harder for the brain to shift between focus, relaxation, and sleep. Over time, it speeds up cognitive decline—slowly dulling thinking, memory, and coordination.
What's the Solution?
One of the best way to avoid cognitive decline is to support the source - failing microglia. Researchers discovered that when microglia are stimulated at their natural rhythm—especially around 40 Hz (gamma frequency)—they start to behave more like healthy cells again. This helps them support neurons, clean up waste, and protect brain function.
Why Light?
In 2016, MIT found that light at specific frequencies could activate these rhythms in the brain. That’s because the visual system is one of the brain’s fastest and strongest pathways—what someone sees directly influences how their brain responds.
What Healyan Does Better
Most light therapy devices make you stare straight into a light source, but that only reaches the center of your vision. Global clinical standards suggest the areas around the edges of your sight are significantly more important for getting the full effect.
Healyan is built differently. Its wearable design gently shines light where it’s most effective—around your eyes—so you can get the benefits while relaxing, reading, or watching TV.
