She gives an overview of a fascinating presentation given by Dr. John Downing, titled 'Clinical EEG and Neurophysiological Case Studies in Ocular Light Therapy'.
Maniisha describes how coloured light frequencies, applied to the eyes, can have a profoundly significant effect to help individuals with difficult to treat mental, brain and psychological issues. This is backed up with case histories by Dr. John Downing, for cases such as epilepsy, depression, anxiety, insomnia and fibromyalgia.
