Red light therapy (RLT) is a non-invasive treatment that uses low-level wavelengths of red or near-infrared light to promote healing, reduce inflammation, and rejuvenate the skin. This therapy has gained popularity in recent years due to its ability to improve overall wellness and address a variety of health concerns.
How Does Red Light Therapy Work?
Red light therapy (RLT) works by using specific wavelengths of red or near-infrared light to penetrate the skin and interact with the cells in your body. The light stimulates the mitochondria, which are the "powerhouses" of cells, enhancing their ability to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is the primary energy source for cellular functions, and increased ATP production boosts the body's natural healing and repair processes.
