Amjo Corp has been specializing in UV Phototherapy for nearly a
decade. During that time our primary sales mission has been in the
area of high power Ultraviolet light used in the treatment of skin
challenges such as psoriasis, eczema, vitiligo and other skin
problems. Wood's lamp emits ultraviolet light and can be a
diagnostic aid in determining if someone has a fungal or bacterial
infection on the skin or scalp. If there is an infection on the area
where the Wood's lamp is illuminating, the area will fluoresce.

light.
