Red Light Therapy

Red light therapy is also referred to as photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy because of the change in the body induced by light. Red light can be absorbed by chromophores in the mitochondria of the body's cells. This activates metabolic energy processes. It promotes ATP production, which boosts energy transport within cells, leading to increased cell proliferation. This boost in the body's natural healing cycle helps reduce inflammation and promotes the healing of damaged tissue.

Red Light Therapy treatment is recommended to be done at least three times a week for best results. The number of sessions per week may vary depending on your needs and what you are trying to achieve. 

Red Light Therapy treatments are safe and painless. This FDA-approved service will generate a minimal amount of heat. Although the red lights may be bright, it is perfectly fine to use the service without eyewear unless desired for comfort.

Oxidative stress occurs when there is an imbalance between the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and the body's ability to detoxify them. One of the ways that Red Light Therapy helps to reduce oxidative stress is by stimulating the production of antioxidants in the body that can neutralize ROS and prevent them from causing damage to cells. Red Light Therapy has been shown to increase the production of antioxidants such as glutathione, which can help to protect against oxidative stress.
