Red Light Therapy

Happy Monday!

Red Light Therapy

Red light therapy is a treatment that uses low-wavelength red light to improve your skin’s appearance, such as reducing wrinkles, scars, redness, and acne. It works by acting on the mitochondria. With more energy, other cells can do their work more efficiently, such as repairing skin, boosting new cell growth, and enhancing skin rejuvenation.

Red light therapy can help with-

  • Stimulate collagen production. Collagen is a component of connective tissue that builds skin

  • Increase blood circulation to the tissue

  • Reduce inflammation in cells

  • Pain relief and inflammation reduction because red light therapy has anti-inflammatory effects

  • Many athletes use red light therapy to speed up muscle recovery

  • Some studies suggest that red light therapy can help stimulate hair growth

  • Red light therapy can positively affect mood and sleep by influencing circadian rhythms and promoting melatonin production
