What exactly is Red Light Therapy?
Red/NIR Light Therapy is not only a safe and painless treatment.. it really works and has extensive scientific backing.
- There’s no question that light exerts biological effects: in fact, the body needs light to be healthy. All light falls along a spectrum of wavelengths. Sunlight includes a component of red light; it is this light wavelength that contributes to the enhanced sense of well-being we experience after a few hours outdoors. Red and infrared light that falls within the wavelength range of 650-850 nanometers (nm) is extremely beneficial, and often referred to as the “therapeutic window”.
- Visible red light within this range can penetrate deep into the skin, offering rejuvenating and balancing outcomes for a range of health conditions. These wavelengths of light are bioactive in humans, which mean they have a biological effect on the body like antibiotics or vitamins and affect the function of our cells.
