Abstract
The invention provides a method and an apparatus for enhancing immunosurveillance capacity, particularly, NK cell activity, without administration of medicines or immunological therapy, through noninvasive and simple method. The invention provides also a method and an apparatus for enhancing power of concentration of users in intellectual activities. The method according to the invention is carried out by applying to the forehead, with foreign lights being excluded, pulsed light in the frequency range of from 0.5 to 13 Hz, preferably in a frequency of a representative value in alpha wave band obtained by measuring brain waves of users or any frequencies near that representative value. NK cell activity is surely enhanced by the pulsed-light application with the eyes of users being shielded. The apparatus according to the invention comprises a fitting device detachably fit onto the head or forehead of users, a light emitting means for applying pulsed light in the frequency range of alpha waves to the forehead of users, electrodes for measuring brain waves and an adjusting means for adjusting frequencies of pulsed light.
