What is Red Light Therapy?
Light (red and near-infrared light) has the power to heal the body and optimize health. Red and near-infrared light are part of the electromagnetic spectrum, and more specifically, part of the spectrum of light emitted by the sun. These wavelengths are bioactive in humans. Meaning, these types of light literally affect the function of our cells. Overall, red and near-infrared light therapy have been repeatedly shown to have positive effects on cell function in animal and human studies in numerous ways.

Benefits Include:
