Abstract
An improved method for performing phototherapy. The method comprises a step of applying a supplement to the patient before/after light treatment, which produces nitric oxide in the subject biological tissue to be treated. The nitric oxide serves as signaling molecules to cause vasodilatation and increase blood flow and micro-circulation in the biological tissue so as to enhance the effect and reduce the required treatment time of phototherapy.
