Learn the basics of how photobiomodulation (red light therapy works)

Photobiomodulation, or red light therapy, harnesses the power of light to positively impact our biology and physiology. With numerous studies supporting its benefits, red and infrared light therapy offers a wide range of advantages by following these key processes:


1. The Right Light Spectrum

The 610nm- 680nm (Peaking at around 620 and 670nm) and 810nm-850nm spectrum are scientifically proven to excite the mitochondria of the cell and other key enzymes. 810nm, 830nm and 850nm are well researched NIR wavelengths.

2. Boost in Cellular Energy

Red and infrared light deliver light energy (photons) to the mitochondria. These photons have various effects to cellular function and signalling. This leads to an ability to produce more ATP—the energy currency of our cells. This boost in ATP enhances your cells' ability to perform various functions.

3. Enhanced Biological Functions

There is an average of 37 trillion cells in our body. With more energy available, improved cellular signalling, the body can significantly increase every aspect of itself. This can help in - speeding up healing, to reducing inflammation and even increasing sports performance

Enhance Your Fitness with Red/NIR Light Therapy

“In the near future, sports agencies must deal with ‘laser doping’ by at least openly discussing it because the aforementioned beneficial effects and the pre-conditioning achieved by laser and LED irradiation will highly improve athletic performance.” – Michael Hamblin, PhD

Combining red/NIR light with exercise creates a powerful synergy. This therapy not only speeds up recovery but also amplifies the benefits of exercise, such as increased muscle gain, fat loss, performance, strength, and endurance. Muscle tissue, which is rich in mitochondria, responds exceptionally well to photobiomodulation, aiding in quicker recovery and preventing muscle fatigue during workouts.

Key Studies:

  • Vieira et al. discovered that light therapy post-exercise significantly reduced muscle fatigue.
  • Leal-Junior et al. reviewed 13 trials, concluding that pre-conditioning muscles with red/NIR light improves performance and speeds up recovery.
  • Baroni et al. demonstrated significant strength and muscle size gains in an exercise group treated with 810nm light.

How Red Light Therapy Can Improve Your Skincare Routine

Red light therapy stimulates the production of collagen and elastin, reducing lines, wrinkles, scars, varicose veins, acne, and cellulite. This makes it a safe and effective alternative to injections and surgeries for anti-aging and skin rejuvenation. Red light therapy also repairs UV damage by promoting collagen synthesis, fibroblast formation, anti-inflammatory benefits, and DNA repair.

Key Benefits:

  • Reduces signs of aging and UV damage
  • Enhances collagen synthesis and skin repair
  • Improves skin conditions like acne, keloids, vitiligo, burns, herpes, and psoriasis

Red and Near-Infrared Light Therapy for Hair Loss

Red light therapy has been shown to help with hair regrowth and thickening for both men and women, particularly those with conditions like alopecia.

Red and Near-Infrared Light Therapy for Cellulite

Combining photobiomodulation with massage can significantly reduce cellulite. Studies show improvements in skin tone and smoothness, making it an effective treatment for cellulite.

Everyday Health and Vitality with Light Therapy

For Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue, and Increased Energy

Red light therapy effectively restores energy and vitality, reduces pain, muscle spasms, morning stiffness, and the number of tender points in fibromyalgia patients. Recent studies suggest this therapy is a safe and effective treatment for fibromyalgia.

For Inflammation and Inflammation-Related Diseases

Red and near-infrared light therapy are highly effective in treating chronic inflammation, a major contributor to many chronic diseases like heart disease, depression, cancer, Alzheimer’s, and chronic fatigue syndrome.

Improve Your Cognitive Performance

Transcranial near-infrared and red light therapy significantly enhance brain and cognitive performance. Studies have shown improvements in attention, memory, and executive function, offering hope for treatments against cognitive decline and diseases like Alzheimer’s.
