Red Light Therapy is a treatment that utilizes red and near-infrared light to improve cellular output, leading to a reduction in inflammation, faster recovery, improved skin appearance, and even a reduction in fat cells. It's best to have it done 2-3 times a week using small panels for targeted areas and larger panels for full-body treatments.

 

The therapy works by stimulating the body's mitochondria, which leads to a wide range of benefits such as aiding in wound healing, improved skin texture, and decreased pain and inflammation. This is achieved by improving cellular energy production, which stimulates the growth and repair of cells. Extensive research has been done on both animals and humans, and it has been shown that red and near-infrared light positively affects cell function and can improve various conditions.

Red Light Therapy has no side effects and can be used on most clients.
