THE SCIENCE BEHIND Red & Infrared Light Therapy
Phase 1: Light Penetration
Red light (630–660 nm) and infrared light (800–850 nm) penetrate the skin at varying depths. Red light reaches the surface and mid-layers of the skin, while infrared light penetrates deeper into muscles, tissues, and even joints. This light energy is absorbed by the mitochondria—your cells' powerhouses.
Phase 2: Cellular Activation
Once absorbed, the light stimulates mitochondrial activity, boosting the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate)—the energy source for all cellular functions. This energizes the cells, supports repair processes, reduces oxidative stress, and promotes cellular regeneration at the source.
Phase 3: Healing and Regeneration
As a result of increased cellular energy and reduced inflammation, the body begins to heal more effectively. Benefits may include tissue repair, improved skin tone and collagen production, reduced joint and muscle pain, and enhanced circulation—helping the body recover and rejuvenate naturally.
