Exploring the Future of Light Therapy with Mark Murdock (Aspen Lasers, TheraLight, TheraGo)

In this episode of Forever Young, Dr. John Layke and Dr. Payman Danielpour sit down with Mark Murdock, one of the nation’s leading experts on photobiomodulation and the driving force behind Aspen Lasers, TheraLight, and TheraGo.

Mark has spent years bringing professional-grade light therapy into medical offices, wellness clinics, athletic recovery centers — and now, through innovative portable systems, directly into people’s homes. His mission: empower patients and practitioners with FDA-cleared, science-backed light-based technology that accelerates healing, reduces inflammation, improves performance, enhances recovery, and supports cellular vitality.

💡 In This Episode, We Discuss:

• The science behind photobiomodulation
What light wavelengths actually do inside human tissue, how they stimulate mitochondria, and why the right dosage matters.

• The origins of Aspen Lasers and TheraLight
How Mark built some of the most trusted clinical light-therapy platforms in the U.S. — and why the medical community has embraced the technology.

• The rise of at-home red-light therapy
How TheraGo is making high-quality photobiomodulation accessible to people who can’t visit a clinic every week.

• Light therapy for pain, inflammation, and recovery
Why elite athletes, surgeons, physical therapists, and regenerative-medicine doctors are using these devices for post-operative healing and performance optimization.

• Safety, effectiveness, and misconceptions
Mark explains what separates medical-grade systems from cheap, underpowered consumer devices — and how to evaluate red-light tech before investing your money.

• The future of light-based medicine
Emerging research, new applications, and what the next decade of photomedicine might look like.

✨ Why This Episode Matters

Whether you’re a physician, an athlete, a biohacker, or someone curious about longevity, this conversation offers a clear roadmap for understanding how light can be used as a therapeutic tool — and how to choose technology that actually works.
