What if a laser could help a child speak for the first time—or reverse an “incurable” brain condition?
In this episode of The Human Upgrade, Dave Asprey talks with Dr. Brandon Crawford, a leading neurotherapist and founder of 528 Innovations, about the emerging field of advanced light therapy and photo-biomodulation therapy for brain and body healing. You’ll learn how light—when precisely pulsed and targeted using next-gen laser technology—can rewire brainwaves, accelerate neurodevelopment, and even influence higher states of consciousness.
Dr. Crawford explains how specific light frequencies and pulse patterns are being used in brain healing with light, modulating brain states, activating the vagus nerve, improving mood, and restoring gut-brain communication. You’ll hear powerful examples of laser therapy for autism, ALS recovery using light therapy, and how Schumann resonance healing and mitochondrial signaling fit into the future of bioenergetic medicine. This conversation dives deep into the frontier of neurodevelopment and lasers, where quantum biology meets real-world transformation.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
• How photo-biomodulation therapy rewires brainwaves for mood, focus, and clarity
• The exact brain regions linked to embodiment, intuition, and flow
• Why pulsing patterns matter more than power in laser tech
• How light influences trauma recovery and vagus nerve activation
• The role of structured water and infrared light in cellular repair
• How patients with ALS and autism responded to targeted laser therapy protocols
