Introduction

​

This study evaluates the bioelectrical effects of a TLS Chair session using Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS), a well-established scientific method for measuring changes in the electrical properties of biological systems. EIS was used to assess changes in the electrical conductivity of living human cheek cells following exposure to a TLS Chair under various treatment durations. The objective of this study was to determine whether a TLS Chair session produces measurable changes in cellular electrical activity and to evaluate how exposure duration influences the magnitude of the response. By comparing measurements obtained before and after treatment, the study provides quantitative data regarding the impact of TLS Chair exposure on cellular conductivity and bioelectrical function.

Scientific Basis

​

Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) measures the flow of electrical energy through biological systems by evaluating changes in impedance and conductivity. Because conductivity and electrical resistance are inversely related, increased conductivity indicates that electrical energy moves more efficiently through cells and biological tissues. Electrical conductivity plays an important role in biological function and has been associated with cellular communication, energy transfer, and DNA activity. Previous studies have demonstrated that DNA conductivity is related to DNA repair processes and structural organization, while living cells exhibit measurable electrical responses (Kratochvílová, 2010; Hartzell, 2003; Cai, 2000; Lackovic, 2007). Because biological processes depend upon the movement of electrical energy, measurable increases in conductivity may indicate improvements in cellular electrical function and bioelectrical coherence.

 

What This Study DemonstratesThis study was designed to evaluate the bioelectrical effects of a TLS Chair session under several exposure durations. Measurements were obtained before and after treatment and compared to control measurements collected under normal ambient environmental conditions. The results demonstrate that the TLS Chair consistently increased cellular conductivity beyond control values under every condition tested. The significant response was observed following a 30-minute session, which produced an approximately 61% increase in conductivity. An enhanced condition identified as F11 produced an approximately 80% increase in conductivity, representing the largest measured response in the study. These findings provide quantitative evidence that the TLS Chair produces rapid and measurable effects on cellular electrical activity, with significant bioelectrical responses occurring within as little as 30 minutes of exposure.

Methods

​

The bioelectrical effects of a TLS Chair session were evaluated using Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS). Measurements were performed on living human buccal (inner cheek) cells collected before and after exposure to the TLS Chair under various treatment durations. Buccal cells were obtained from the inner cheek and transferred into distilled water for analysis. EIS measurements were then performed to evaluate changes in cellular electrical conductivity following treatment. Each measurement was conducted in triplicate and the average value was used for analysis. The subject was exposed to the TLS Chair for 30 minutes, 1 hour, and 8 hours under separate test conditions. Additional measurements were obtained under the F11 condition. Control measurements were collected under normal ambient environmental conditions without TLS exposure. All results are reported as percent change relative to baseline measurements obtained prior to treatment.

​

Results and Discussion

​

Figure 1 illustrates the bioelectrical response observed following exposure to the TLS Chair under different treatment durations. Control measurements collected under normal ambient environmental conditions showed only a 4.7% change in conductivity. In contrast, all TLS Chair exposures produced substantially greater responses.

​

The strongest effect was observed following a 30-minute TLS Chair session, which increased cellular conductivity by approximately 61%. A one-hour session produced a 47% increase, while an eight-hour exposure produced a 14% increase. These findings indicate that the TLS Chair produces rapid and measurable effects on cellular electrical activity, with the largest response occurring during the initial stages of treatment. Figure 2 compares the standard 30-minute TLS Chair session to the enhanced F11 condition. While the 30-minute session produced a 61% increase in conductivity, the F11 condition increased conductivity by approximately 80%, representing the largest biological response observed in the study. This result demonstrates that specific treatment conditions may further amplify the bioelectrical effects generated by the TLS Chair.

​

Taken together, these findings demonstrate that TLS Chair exposure produces rapid increases in cellular conductivity that greatly exceed ambient control conditions. The results further suggest that the bioelectrical response can be influenced by treatment parameters, with significant effects occurring within as little as 30 minutes of exposure.

​

Conclusion

​

The results of this study demonstrate that the TLS Chair produces rapid and measurable increases in cellular conductivity. A 30-minute session generated the strongest standard response, increasing conductivity by approximately 61% compared to baseline measurements. Under the enhanced F11 condition, conductivity increased by approximately 80%, representing the largest bioelectrical response observed in the study. These findings indicate that significant changes in cellular electrical activity can occur within a relatively short exposure period. Taken together, the results provide quantitative evidence that the TLS Chair produces strong and measurable bioelectrical effects and enhances cellular conductivity beyond normal ambient conditions.
