NCT ID NCT07260903

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether regular use of a home-based light device (photobiomodulation) can improve balance and thinking skills in adults aged 60 to 80. Falls and memory lapses are common concerns as we age, and this safe, non-invasive approach aims to address both. Sixty participants will be randomly assigned to receive either active or placebo light treatment over several weeks, with results measured through memory and balance tests.
