Red Light Therapy Session

Red light therapy (RLT) is a treatment that uses low-level red and near-infrared light to penetrate the skin and stimulate cells. It’s also called photobiomodulation in more technical settings.

• This light penetrates the skin and is absorbed by mitochondria (the “energy producers” in your cells).It increases ATP (cellular energy), which supports:
  • Repair processes
  • Reduced inflammation
  • Improved circulation
    
    

    RLT is used for a mix of cosmetic and recovery purposes:

    Skin & appearance

    • Reducing fine lines and wrinkles
    • Improving skin tone and texture
    • Supporting collagen production
    • Helping with acne (sometimes combined with blue light)

    Recovery & pain

    • Muscle recovery after exercise
    • Joint pain and stiffness
    • Reducing inflammation

    Other uses (with varying evidence)

    • Hair growth support
    • Wound healing
    • Mood/seasonal effects (less strong evidence vs light therapy for SAD)
