Who we are

Vision

Svyet's vision is to make light therapy, the standard therapy of the future​.

​

Mission

Svyet's mission is to provide people with access to effective & affordable light therapy. Light can help athletes perform at their best, patients recover quickly from surgeries, and individuals alleviate their inevitable age-related pain. 

Our Story

Over the last several years, Paul has been intrigued by light and its ability to be manipulated for numerous applications amongst various industries. While his parents have medical expertise, Paul has a business background and aims to help others with the power of light therapy.

 

In 2015, Paul's dog, Ozzy, suffered a freak accident and was paralyzed in his lower back. Veterinarians said he had a week to live and that he would not regain function in his lower half. This entire week, Paul's father, Dmitri, treated Ozzy with a Laser Therapy device that he initially developed for laser dentistry. Amazingly enough, Ozzy made a miraculous recovery and lived happily for another 5 years.

​

Paul began to research this technology and pursued an internship with Dr. Michael Sheps of Pacific Coast Sports Medicine in LA. Dr. Sheps is a Chiropractor & Laser Specialist who works with various Olympic athletes, professional sports teams, and local universities. Over the course of the summer, Paul assisted in the treatment of over 100 individuals of all ages and sizes. There even were a handful of individuals who claimed that the laser worked so well, they avoided surgery. The following 2 summers, Paul worked with IPG Medical, a division of IPG Photonics, a leading laser manufacturer. It was here that he learned about the logistics, production, and manufacturing processes needed to operate in a large laser company. ​

​

Paul has played competitive hockey his entire life, and has seen all types of injuries and treatment modalities over the course of the years. His dream is to provide an affordable treatment modality that physically feels good in order to achieve a speedy recovery. 

​

Paul has been inspired by his family and is incredibly driven to help others in their wellbeing. Join Paul and his team in their journey!
