What is red light therapy?

Red light therapy (RLT) is a non-invasive treatment that uses low-wavelength red or near-infrared light to promote healing, reduce inflammation, and rejuvenate the skin. It’s commonly used in wellness, skincare, and physical therapy settings.

How does red light therapy work?

RLT penetrates the skin and stimulates mitochondria in your cells, boosting energy production (ATP). This process enhances cellular function, encourages tissue repair, and improves circulation.

Is red light therapy safe?

Yes, red light therapy is generally considered safe when used as directed. It is non-invasive and does not use UV light, so it doesn’t damage the skin. However, eye protection is recommended during use.
