LifeWave is a health and wellness company founded in 2004 with a mission of helping people feel better, look younger, and lead more joyful lives. The company works towards this goal by providing products designed to tap into the body’s natural energy and resiliency.
The company has experienced high levels of growth since its creation, fueled by positive testimonials and a dedicated costumer base. As a result, the company has been featured multiple times on Inc.’s list of fastest-growing companies. Its products are now available in over 100 countries worldwide.
The founder and CEO of LifeWave, David Schmidt, draws on his formal education in Management Information Systems and Biology to help develop his company’s innovative technologies. He is now the owner of more than 70 patents in the field of regenerative science and technology, many of which are used directly in his company’s work.
One of the primary technologies developed and used by the company is its phototherapy patches. Phototherapy, the term for using light as a therapy tool, is used in many forms across a wide range of disciplines, such as laser light therapy. The company’s phototherapy patches reflect particular wavelengths of light back onto the wearer’s skin in order to elicit certain health and wellness effects.
Areas of focus for the company’s patches include pain management, sleep improvement, and the proliferation of antioxidants. One example of this is the first product developed by the company — the Energy Enhancer Patch. This patch works without stimulants or drugs of any kind to increase energy and endurance. This is accomplished through the stimulation of beta-oxidation which allows the body to produce more energy than carbohydrate burning. The patch is just one application for the company’s phototherapy technology that has earned praise amongst its large customer base.
