Red and Near Infrared Light Therapy
Red and Near Infrared Light Therapy
Red and Near Infrared Light Therapy works by penetrating light to deep tissues which’s stimulates mitochondria and cellular energy production, activates cellular antioxidant and anti-inflammatory functions of the body which leads to better tissue and skin health.
The most well studied mechanism of action surrounding red and near infrared light therapy is increased MITOchondrial energy production in the cells. MITOchondria are tiny organelles that are the energy power plants of all the cells in our body. Red and near infrared light therapy helps the MITOchondria create more of that energy. The specific photons found in red and near infrared light interact with a photoreceptors within our cells called cytochrome c oxidase. This interaction stimulates the mitochondria in our cells to use oxygen more efficiently, which allows the mitochondria to produce more ATP (adenosine triphosphate), also known as cellular energy.

During a LED light therapy treatment, chromophores within our cellular mitochondria absorb red and infrared light photons, and convert them into energy. Once this red light energy has been absorbed by the body, it is then used by the cells to build new proteins such as collagen and elastin, and to assist with cellular regeneration. When our cells have more energy, they simply perform better and the body follows suit!
Unlike many other types of treatments, light therapy is completely safe and non-invasive. It’s quickly becoming a “go to” application in numerous clinics due to its the natural healing and rejuvenating benefits of specific wavelengths of light and it’s fun, relaxing and energizing experience.
