I was in there finishing up an experiment and had just screwed up my knee again, but Scott, the guy who set up all the chemicals, had won one of them in a raffle and just left it sitting in the lab plugged in. I'd laughed to myself about how silly it was, but I tried it on a lark, and it really did penetrate into my knee, which honestly felt very strange. It wasn't "hot" or "warm," but it did send infrared in like they claimed and took the edge off the pain before Scott showed up and had a laugh about it. I turned it off in embarrassment. XD

My dad does light therapy as a community service. It's part of the schedule of the Spiritism temple he and my mom go to. But in their case, Placebo effects are really a big part of the process... although, yeah, it does have positive effects. Even if minor. It's not that different from a massage actually, you're just using and expecific method to "give a hand" to your own body to heal itself naturally.

I do belive in auras as in the sense that, we have energy. I mean, we dont know everything there is to know about the human race or our Biology. We have pretty much the larger part down just fine... but only now we're talking about our DNA in depth. So, im prettysure will find new things... also, Our brains are in a constant puls of eletric energy. And our bodies generate heat out of fat consuption, just like all mammalls. So, keeping this process 24/7 over your whole life... i wouldnt be surprised if we had a light layer of some sort of static energy/charge around our bodies. I Doubt it could ever affect the world around us, but since, energy reacts to energy... it would be plausible to understand where they come up with excuses to make these products...

I mean, just like at Pyros... his body reacts with/to eletronics. It wouldnt take much for someone to take that and create a myth on top of it, so they could profit.
