What Is Red Light Therapy?
Red Light Therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses low-level red and near-infrared light to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes at a cellular level. By penetrating the skin, red light boosts cellular energy production, enhances circulation, and promotes regeneration, making it a popular therapy for skin rejuvenation, pain relief, and overall wellness.
RLT is widely used for anti-aging, skin health, injury recovery, and performance enhancement, offering a safe and drug-free way to support the body’s natural repair mechanisms.
How It Works
Red light therapy works by delivering specific wavelengths of light to the skin and underlying tissues. These wavelengths are absorbed by mitochondria, the energy centers of your cells, which stimulates the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the energy molecules your body needs to repair and regenerate cells.
The increased cellular energy improves collagen production, reduces inflammation, and enhances circulation, promoting faster recovery, healthier skin, and improved tissue function.
