Red light therapy, comprising both red and near-infrared wavelengths, is a unique healing part of the electromagnetic spectrum and it is one of the most natural ways to charge the body. It is now used as a new form of therapy under the umbrella term Photobiomodulation (PBM).
PBM describes approaches based on interactions of light, and after more than 50 years of extensive research on PBM, it has been proven as a non-invasive, non-toxic, and non-traumatic therapy. There are no known side effects. Read More
All energy is electromagnetic in nature, and nothing happens in the body without an electromagnetic exchange between cells. We are all familiar with the electrocardiogram (EKG) and electroencephalograph (EEG) tests, which measure the electromagnetic activity of the heart and brain, respectively. When electromagnetic activity ceases, life ceases. Electromagnetic energy controls our chemistry. Read more
Red and NIR light helps balance the body’s inflammatory effects by boosting cellular energy and cutting down on oxidative stress. Wavelengths of red and NIR light have been shown to stimulate the mitochondria, the powerhouse of the cell, and can optimize the cellular respiration process that makes ATP (adenosine triphosphate) energy, which increases function, speeds healing, and can reduce inflammation & discomfort, as demonstrated in numerous peer-reviewed studies.

Your immune defense works to fend off bacteria and viruses every day. RLT boosts this system in various ways.
It releases nitric oxide and melatonin, which are involved in DNA repair.
It also works through a process known as hormesis. When RLT is beamed into cells it causes mild metobalic stress, which results in cells engaging their anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial, and anti-oxidant responses. PEMF Read More Red Light Read More
