REDUCE PAIN & INFLAMMATION

Near-infrared (NIR) light reduces overall inflamma- tion in the body by decreasing the presence of inflammatory markers. This reduction can help ease the symptoms associated with joint pain, sore muscles, autoimmune diseases, arthritis, traumatic brain injuries, and spinal cord injuries.

REDUCE RECOVERY TIME

For high-performance athletes (and those who train like them) red light therapy can help acceler- ate muscle repair following fatigue and injury. Mitochondria within cells are particularly responsive to red light therapy, and muscle cells are exceptionally rich in mitochondria. red light therapy may also stimulate stem cells, further assisting in muscle recovery.

IMPROVE BLOOD CIRCULATION

In many studies, red light therapy has been clinically proven to increase the diameter of blood vessels and to improve circulation. What’s more, red light therapy also protects red blood cells against oxidative stress and limits platelet loss during surgical procedures.

STIMULATE HAIR GROWTH

Alopecia, or hair loss, is a common disorder affecting 50% of males over the age of 40 and 75% of females over 65. Studies have shown that red light therapy can stimulate hair growth. Red light wavelengths are believed to stimulate epidermal stem cells in the hair follicle, shifting the follicle into the anagen (active growth) stage.

GLOWING SKIN

Red light therapy can dramatically transform the skin. Red light wavelengths in particular target the mitochondrial chromophores within skin cells, gener- ating production of collagen proteins. Collagen stimulation yields more holistic and enduring benefits than simply resurfacing the outer layers of the skin. Stem cells may also be activated, increasing tissue repair. The result is accelerated healing and wound repair, improved appearance in hypertrophic scars, a reduction in fine lines and wrinkles, and improved skin texture.

PROMOTE HEALTHY CELLULAR FUNCTION

The most significant benefit of red light therapy is the effect it has on the body’s cells. One of the most critical outcomes of red light therapy on cellular function is the stimulation of collagen production. Collagen strengthens hair, is responsible for the health of connective tissue, and provides our skin with firmness and elasticity.
