What is Red Light Therapy?


The therapy applies different wavelengths of light at different intensities and pulse rates to affect or modulate the body's biological function. Cellular optimization cascades down into and benefits nearly every tissue, organ, and system in the body.

Red light therapy stimulates natural cellular processes, similar to how specific wavelengths (at the opposite end of the light spectrum) can be used to treat psoriasis or vitiligo.

Red light therapy (also known as Photobiomodulation) uses a combination of red and near-infrared light to activate a number of biological processes.

How Does Red Light Therapy Help?

As a therapeutic technique, Red Light Therapy is specifically used to treat:

  • Fibromyalgia symptom relief
  • Chronic fatigue syndrome
  • Relief from pain caused by auto-immune arthritis pain and dysfunction
  • Augmented weight loss when undertaken with diet and exercise
  • Anti-ageing benefits including deeply rejuvenated skin improve the appearance of skin tone, elasticity, lines, scars, and wrinkles,

What is Red Light Therapy used for?


Red light therapy is typically used by doctors, physical therapists, and pain clinics as a highly effective non-invasive treatment with no known side effects.

It is also used by professional athletes to improve performance and reduce the incidence of injuries.

How Red Light Therapy Works?



 

How Green Light Therapy Works?


Our

 

Our bodies are made up of thousands of cells and as we age so do our cells.

Mitochondria are structures within cells that convert the energy from food into a form that cells can use. Each cell contains hundreds to thousands of mitochondria, which are located in the fluid that surrounds the nucleus (the cytoplasm)

Mitochondria are the powerhouse where the cell’s energy is created. Mitochondria allow the cells to make up tissues, tissues make up organs, and organs make up humans.

One of the key benefits of photobiomodulation (PBM) is its ability to improve mitochondrial function.

Like an engine in a car, mitochondria are the motors that power the cell. As those motors wear out the cells die which leads to dysfunction from aging.

Photobiomodulation can rejuvenate the life of the cell and even merge damaged mitochondria to create 'giant mitochondria'. It is kind of like replacing a worn-out 4-cyl engine with a brand-new V8.

Mitochondria Stress

When cells age and become stressed, the mitochondria produce Nitric Oxide (NO) which competes with oxygen and often wins.

This mitochondria molecule blocks the receptor site that Oxygen binds to during the respiratory process (the process of turning sugar in the blood into cellular energy).

With a diet rich in antioxidants and rest, our body manages excess Nitric Oxide. If the body is too stressed it cannot properly remove enough Nitric Oxide fast enough. This causes “reactive oxygen species” (ROS) and is known as Oxidative Stress.

Reactive Oxygen Species are toxic and can cause:

  • Inflammation,
  • Cell death, and
  • The expression of genes responsible for cancer,

Conditions including Alzheimer’s, osteoarthritis are just some conditions related to this process.

RLT produces a biochemical effect in cells that strengthen the mitochondria, this allows increased energy, so cells can function more efficiently and rejuvenate and repair the damage.

When red and infrared light is absorbed by a protein in the mitochondria called Cytochrome c Oxidase (CcO), the toxic mitochondrial Nitric Oxide (NO) is dissociated from the protein CcO. This allows oxygen to move more freely in the body, and the cell to function optimally.

Red Light Therapy Treatment

A single treatment lasts less than 15 minutes. It's relaxing and will leave you feeling better than ever.

You can use red light therapy every day. Most people don't see much benefit in using it more than once per day. For handheld treatments, your practitioner will advise you as to your treatment plan.


Red Light Therapy is Science. Not magic.

Red Light Therapy has been studied in over 500 human trials and 4,000 lab studies.

The manufacturer of the  ARRC LED Whole Body Photobiomodulation Bed  is considered a subject matter expert by researchers, hospitals, and governmental bodies including the US Congress and the UN.

The ARRC LED ATP system is a Class II exempt medical device that is FDA Approved for minor aches and pains:

“It's been incredible. Life-changing.” After three treatments I was pain-free for the first time in 7 years.


FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS 

According to the American Academy of Dermatology (AAD), red light therapy is not recommended for individuals with photosensitizing medical conditions like lupus, or those who are taking photosensitizing drugs such as tetracycline or naproxen. Additionally, it is advised to avoid red light therapy if you have any open wounds or lesions on your skin. It's important to consult with a healthcare professional or dermatologist before undergoing red light therapy to ensure it is safe and appropriate for your specific medical condition or circumstances.

The time it takes to observe results from red light therapy can vary for each person, as it depends on individual responses and the desired outcome. However, typically, when using red light therapy on a daily basis, you can anticipate noticing improvements within a period of 4 to 6 weeks.

Red light therapy can indeed be used daily, but it's important to note that using it more than once per day doesn't necessarily provide additional benefits for most individuals. It's generally recommended to follow a treatment plan advised by your practitioner, especially when using handheld devices. They will provide guidance on the frequency and duration of the treatments based on your specific needs and goals.

Red light therapy involves the use of LED lights that penetrate the skin to enhance circulation. This improved blood flow can have multiple benefits. Firstly, it may aid in breaking down fat cells that contribute to cellulite, potentially reducing its appearance. Additionally, the therapy stimulates collagen production, which can lead to firmer and smoother skin. By utilizing red light therapy, individuals may experience these positive effects on their skin's texture and overall appearance.

Red light therapy is a type of body sculpting that may help with stubborn fat. However, research suggests that the results are modest at best, particularly in the waist and arms. It can also be quite costly, and the long-term durability of the results is unknown.

For injury prevention, some recommend using red light therapy for 3-5 minutes before a workout. After the workout, a session of 10-20 minutes is suggested for recovery. When using red light therapy for pain management, a typical duration of 6-15 minutes, 3-5 times per week, over several months is often recommended. It's important to consult with a healthcare professional or expert in red light therapy for personalized guidance.

Concerns We Address  

Research

Background: Fibromyalgia is a chronic disorder characterized by widespread pain and tenderness. Low-level laser therapy (LLLT), an emerging nonpharmacological treatment, has been used for relieving musculoskeletal or neuropathic pain.

Dose Response. 2009 Sep 1;7(4):358-83. doi: 10.2203/dose-response.09-027.Hamblin.

There have been a large number of both animal model and clinical studies that demonstrated highly beneficial LLLT effects on a variety of diseases, injuries, and has been widely used in both chronic and acute conditions ( see Figure 7). LLLT may enhance neovascularisation, promote angiogenesis and increase collagen synthesis to promote healing of acute ( Hopkins et al. 2004) and chronic wounds ( Yu et al. 1997). LLLT provided acceleration of cutaneous wound healing in rats with a biphasic dose response favoring lower doses ( Corazza et al. 2007). LLLT can also stimulate healing of deeper structures such as nerves ( Gigo-Benato et al.2004), tendons ( Fillipin et al. 2005), cartilage ( Morrone et al. 2000), bones ( Weberet al. 2006) and even internal organs ( Shao et al. 2005). LLLT can reduce pain ( Bjordal et al. 2006a), inflammation ( Bjordal et al. 2006b) and swelling ( Carati et al. 2003) caused by injuries, degenerative diseases or autoimmune diseases. Oron reported beneficial effect of LLLT on repair processes after injury or ischemia in skeletal and heart muscles in multiple animal models in vivo ( Ad and Oron 2001Oron et al. 2001aOron et al. 2001bYaakobi et al. 2001). LLLT has been used to mitigate damage after strokes (in both animals ( Lapchak et al. 2008) and humans ( Lampl et al. 2007), after traumatic brain injury ( Oron et al. 2007) and after spinal cord injury ( Wu et al. 2009).
