Red light therapy supports true healing by addressing the root cause rather than simply treating the symptoms.
Visible red wavelengths treat each layer of skin tissue, while NIR (near infrared) wavelengths penetrate significantly deeper into the skin. This
puts many health issues such as arthritic joints, over-trained muscles, and inflammatory skin conditions well within the reach of red light therapy treatment.
Red light therapy increases cellular energy production. Supporting optimal cellular performance is one key to healing. Mitochondria inside each cell produce energy by converting glucose into adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which is the primary cellular fuel. As red and near infrared light photons absorb into the skin, they come into contact with light-sensitive molecules called chromophores. This excites the mitochondria and stimulates the production of ATP. When cells produce more energy, they shift from self-preservation to function.
When all cells in a treatment area are "refreshed", their renewed vitality quickly manifests as better health!
In addition to increased cellular function, patients using red light therapy may also experience:
- Faster healing, muscle recovery
- Pain relief
- Reduced inflammation
- Improved moods/enhanced emotions
- Anti-aging
- Increased collagen production
- And so much more!
