Red Light Therapy

Service Description

Benefits of Red Light Therapy include: ✅ Increases blood flow/circulation, helping bring more oxygen and nutrients to our cells and tissues ✅ Improves natural production of collagen and fibroblasts, important for things like skin joint and digestive health ✅ Repairs and restores damaged soft connective tissue ✅ Stimulates or decreases inflammation which helps control our natural healing capabilities ✅ Lowers effects of oxidative stress/free radical damage, which is associated with many effects of aging ✅ Improves wrinkles, cellulite and sore muscles ✅ Speeds up the healing of wounds and injuries ✅ Improves/restores range of motion ✅ Helps with: arthritis, back pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, fibromyalgia, plantar fasciitis (foot pain), post-surgical procedures, sciatica, shoulder pain, sprains, surgical wounds, torn ligaments and tendonitis. Red Light Therapy is a non-invasive treatment pod which emits red light that penetrates deep into the skin, where it is absorbed by cell mitochondria, microscopic organelles that create most of the energy for the cells. Lying down and resting in the Red Light Therapy Pod helps alleviate pain in the body, helps with skin issues, decreases inflammation and activates the lymphatic system, an important part of our immune system that helps carry waste out of the body. Studies have shown that Red Light therapy accelerate wound healing, improve recovery from ischemic injury in the heart and attenuate degeneration in an injured optic nerve. In this study it was also discovered that NIR-LED treatment prevents the development of oral mucositis in paediatric bone marrow transplant patients. Using Red light therapy improved wound healing in genetically diabetic mice by up-regulating genes important in the promotion of wound healing. More recent studies have provided evidence for the therapeutic benefit of NIR-LED treatment in the survival and functional recovery of the retina and optic nerve in vivo after acute injury by the mitochondrial toxin, formic acid generated in the course of methanol intoxication.
