science behind red and nearinfrared light for full body

Over the years as research into red light therapy has progressed, the astonishing benefits of red-light therapy have become quite apparent with over 5000 clinical studies today.

During a red-light therapy treatment, red and near-infrared light wavelengths are emitted and absorbed by chromophores within the cells. The various cells and tissue types within the body possess their own unique light absorption characteristics, responding best to different wavelengths. Red light wavelengths and near-infrared wavelengths therefore work best in tandem, delivering a greater range of benefits to the body’s cells and tissues.

Our microconidia (cellular energy) feeds from Red and NearInfrared light. The red wavelengths are able to penetrate our cells much deeper than other light waves. And in response, our microconidia – the Cell’smuscle – are able to produce energy more efficiently (ATP). This boosts cell functions to work better. Which again enables us to recover faster, heal faster and regenerate faster – creating an anti-aging effect on top and also building an inner cellular antioxidant, which makes us more resistant to negative impact / factors.

Red light therapy is distinctive from other light-based therapies because it promotes beneficial healing without inflicting damage on the body. Red light and NIR wavelengths penetrate below the skin’s surface, stimulating deep healing and cellular regeneration without harming surrounding tissue.

Red light wavelengths measure between 630-700 nm. These are an ideal length to penetrate skin cells and sebaceous glands, offering benefits for skin texture and tone, smoothing fine wrinkles, promoting collagen production and generally rejuvenating the appearance of skin.

Clinical studies are also beginning to explore the diverse potential of red and near-infrared wavelengths for healing diverse physiological and mental conditions. Another clinical research found that near infrared light therapy benefits include reduced headaches, anxiety, sleep disturbance and cognitive impairment.

Weight Loss and Red light therapy

The connection with weight loss is often focused on diet and exercise only. Mental health and oxidative stress are not a priority in usual weight loss processes, but it can lead to deterioration of the physique and result in less effective weight loss. The red light from the LED light reduces the fat cells, stimulates the mitochondria (the energy center of the muscle cells) so that more energy is produced, which leads to a faster improvement and more effective training.

 

Immune System

Red light therapy can enhance immune system function by reducing inflammation; supporting the thyroid, lymphatic system, and liver; and increasing cellular energy, which gives cells enough resources to successfully fight off pathogens. Better sleep furthermore promotes a stronger immune system.
