Red Light Therapy
How does Red Light Therapy work?
Red light is thought to work by producing a biochemical effect in cells that strengthen the mitochondria. The mitochondria are the powerhouse of the cell — it’s where the cell’s energy is created. The energy-carrying molecule found in the cells of all living things is called ATP (adenosine triphosphate). By increasing the function of the mitochondria using RLT, a cell can make more ATP. With more energy, cells can function more efficiently, rejuvenate themselves, and repair damage. RLT is different from laser or intense pulsed light (IPL) therapies because it doesn’t cause damage to the skin surface. Laser and pulsed light therapies work by causing controlled damage to the outer layer of the skin, which then induces tissue repair. RLT bypasses this harsh step by directly stimulating the regeneration of the skin.
Red Light Therapy Benefits:
- Promotes wound healing source and tissue repair
- Improves hair growth in people with androgenic alopecia
- Help for the short-term treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome
- Stimulates healing of slow-healing wounds, like diabetic foot ulcers
- Reduces psoriasis lesions
- Aids with short-term relief of pain and morning stiffness in people with rheumatoid arthritis
- Reduces some of the side effects of cancer treatments, including oral mucositis
- Improves skin complexion and builds collagen to diminish wrinkles
- Helps to mend sun damage
- Prevents recurring cold sores from herpes simplex virus infections

Infrared Light Therapy
Infrared light offers a whole new set of medical benefits that are clinically proven to penetrate deep below the skin’s surface layer to target muscle and joint pain at the source, providing much-needed relief for people who suffer from inflammation and injury.
How Does Light Therapy for Pain Work?
In the same way that plants grow by getting their energy from the sun during photosynthesis, infrared (IR) therapy — or “low-level light” therapy — uses specific, proven wavelengths to stimulate a natural response in human tissue that can increase circulation, accelerate tissue repair, ease muscle pain, relieve joint stiffness, and enhance overall cell performance on a microscopic level. Infrared (IR) light therapy works by boosting cellular energy to encourage and enhance the body’s natural healing abilities. When tissue is damaged, pain occurs. Human tissue can be compromised in a variety of ways; a sprained ankle, a surgical procedure that didn’t heal properly, or even an overly intense gym session can all cause bodily discomfort and emotional distress. Pain can be short-term or long-term, and because it presents itself differently in every person, it can be extremely difficult to treat.
InfraRed Light Therapy has been shown to increase the natural production of collagen, have an anti-aging effect on human skin cells and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. InfraRed Light Therapy has been shown to reduce inflammation. This may be (in part) why it is helpful for inflammatory skin issues such as acne. InfraRed Light Therapy has been shown to improve wound healing and the healing of scars.
