Abstract: A light therapy wearable includes a fabric panel, at least two side-emitting optical fibers, a red light source and an infrared (IR) light source. The at least two side-emitting optical fibers are affixed to or held against the fabric panel. Each of the side-emitting optical fibers includes a core being made from a synthetic polymeric material. The red light source is configured to emit light having a wavelength of about 660 nm and is optically connected with a red light side-emitting optical fiber of the at least two side-emitting optical fibers. The IR light source is configured to emit light having a wavelength of about 830 nm and less than 850 nm. The IR light source is optically connected with an IR light side-emitting optical fiber of the at least two side-emitting optical fibers.

Abstract: A light therapy wearable includes a fabric panel and a side-emitting light tube affixed to or held against the fabric panel. The side-emitting optical light tube includes a side-emitting optical fiber and a jacket surrounding the side-emitting optical fiber. The side-emitting optical fiber includes a core and cladding surrounding the core. The core is made from a synthetic polymeric material. The jacket is made from a transparent or translucent material and has a durometer of at least 65 A and an outer diameter at least seven times a core diameter of the side-emitting optical fiber.

Abstract: A light therapy wearable includes a fabric panel, a light-transmissive pad and a side-emitting optical fiber. The fabric panel includes an inner surface that when the wearable is worn is configured to face a wearer's skin. The light-transmissive pad connects with the fabric panel and at least partially covering the inner surface. The light-transmissive pad can be made from a light-transmissive material having a durometer of at least 50 A. At least a portion of the side-emitting optical fiber can sandwiched between the inner surface of the fabric panel and the light-transmissive pad.

Abstract: Methods, anhydrous compositions, and applicators, for delivery of nutritional supplements while concurrently providing aromatherapy. It finds particular application in conjunction with the oral/lip delivery and absorption and/or ingestion of natural botanical nutritional supplements into a human body, while concurrently providing natural botanical aromatherapy to a user as the natural botanical nutritional supplements are self-administrated by the user to the user's lips and will be described with particular reference thereto.

Abstract: An insole for an article of footwear includes an insole support member and a side-emitting optical fiber fixed with respect to the insole support member. The insole support member is made from a cushioning material and includes a top surface and a bottom surface. The side-emitting optical fiber is configured to project radiation having a therapeutic wavelength along the length of and outwardly through a side of the side-emitting optical fiber and toward a wearer’s foot when the insole is positioned in the article of footwear and the article of footwear is worn. At least a majority of an uppermost surface of the side-emitting optical fiber is disposed beneath a foot-contacting surface that is in contact with the wearer’s foot when the insole is positioned in the article of footwear and the article of footwear is worn.

Abstract: An insole for an article of footwear includes an insole support and a side-emitting optical light tube on the insole support member. The insole support member includes a top surface and a bottom surface where the top surface faces towards a wearer’s foot when the insole is positioned in the article of footwear and the article of footwear is worn. The side-emitting optical light tube is configured to project radiation having a therapeutic wavelength through the side-emitting optical tube and toward the wearer’s foot. The side-emitting optical light tube includes a side-emitting optical fiber and a jacket made from a light-transmissive material at least partially surrounding the side-emitting optical fiber.

Abstract: An article of footwear is configured to be worn so as to at least partially cover a wearer's foot. The footwear includes at least one optical fiber on an internal surface of the footwear. The at least one optical fiber is configured to project radiation having a therapeutic wavelength through the at least one optical fiber and toward at least one of the wearer's foot, ankle or leg when the footwear is being worn so as to at least partially cover the wearer's foot.
