The Science behind Red Light Therapy

What is Red Light Therapy ?

Red Light Therapy (photobiomodulation), is a treatment that uses wavelengths of red and near-infrared lights to penetrate the skin and stimulate cellular process.

Unlike UV rays, which can damage the skin, red light therapy is non-invasive and painless. The wavelengths typically range from 600 to 850 nanometers, allowing them to reach different depths in the tissues and promote various health benefits.

 

 

​

 

 

At a cellular level, red light therapy enhances the function of mitochondria, the powerhouse of the cell. This leads to increased production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the energy currency of the cells. With more ATP, cells can perform optimally, promoting faster healing, reduced inflammation, improved overall skin health, etc.

How does it work ?

Red vs Near-infrared light

Red Light: Visible to the human eye, red light has wavelengths between 600-700 nm. Red light can improve skin health, collagen production, as well as help with hair growth.

​

Near-Infrared light: Invisible to the human eye, near-infrared light has wavelengths between 700-1200 nm and can penetrate deeper into the body, acting on muscles, joints and bones.

Why you should get a high-power device

Most devices sold on the market are grossly underpowered and simply too low wattage to reach therapeutic power densities. The weaker lights won't penetrate into the body and won't be able to reach any deeper tissues, even with extended exposure time.​​​​

Scientifically proven
and Trusted by experts

Supported by over 3000 peer-reviewed scientific studies, Red Light Therapy is one of the biggest breakthrough discoveries in the latest half-century. Scientists have quietly accumulated thousands of studies on the power of red and near-infrared light to enhance human health for the last several decades.

It used to be expensive, (200$ + by treatment) and administered by salons or clinics only.
