What is Red Light Therapy?

Red Light Therapy (RLT) is a therapeutic technique that uses low-level wavelengths of red light to treat various skin issues, promote wound healing, reduce inflammation, and offer pain relief. It is a non-invasive treatment, which means no chemicals, drugs, or incisions are involved.

How does Red Light Therapy differ from Blue and NIR light therapy?

• Red Light Therapy: Primarily used for skin health, inflammation reduction, and collagen production. Penetrates superficial layers of the skin.
• Blue Light Therapy: Used to treat acne, by targeting the bacteria that cause acne outbreaks. It is effective on the skin's surface.
• NIR (Near-Infrared) Light Therapy: Penetrates deeper than both red and blue light, reaching muscles, joints, and even bones. It's mainly used for pain relief, muscle healing, and reducing inflammation in deeper tissues.

While light therapy is safe for most people, those with specific photosensitivity disorders or on medications that increase light sensitivity should consult with a healthcare provider before use. Also those who are pregnant or have cancerous regions should consult a medical provider before using.

What makes Red, Blue, and NIR light therapy effective

• Red Light: Red light stimulates cellular mitochondria, enhancing the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) – the energy currency of cells. This results in increased cellular function and health, promoting faster healing, and producing collagen.
• Blue Light: Blue light's primary function is its antibacterial properties. It's effective against the specific strains of bacteria that cause acne.
• NIR Light: Near-Infrared penetrates deeper into tissues, reaching muscles and bones. It can enhance circulation, promote healing, and offer pain relief.

Generally, yes. Light therapy can be used alongside most treatments, from skincare regimens to physical therapies. However, always consult with a healthcare provider when combining treatments.
