Also known as photobiomodulation (PBM), red and near infrared light therapy uses specific wavelengths within the electromagnetic spectrum. These wavelengths enhance the health and function of the body’s cells.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Mitochondria can be thought of as the energy centre of each cell. The specific photons in red and near infrared light interact with a photoreceptor within our cells called cytochrome c oxidase.

Studies have shown that red and near infrared light therapy increases mitochondrial energy production in our cells.

This interaction stimulates the mitochondria in our cells to use oxygen more efficiently. As a result, they produce more ATP (Adenosine triphosphate), also known as cellular energy.

When our cells have more energy, they perform their functions better. Moreover, when our cells are functioning efficiently and effectively, our bodies will too.
