Extension summary
Red light therapy is a natural, non-evasive technique that has the ability to promote the body’s own immune responses. Classified as the science of photobiomodulation, it is a safe and effective procedure that uses red light-emitting diodes (LED’s) which diffuse wavelengths through a person’s skin. Commonly referred to as low level laser therapy (LLLT), biostimulation (BIOS) or photonic stimulation, red light therapy has shown significant potential in improving our overall health and well-being in a number of ways. Research and clinical studies over the past decade indicate strong evidence that the mechanisms of red light therapy have enormous healing capabilities that can positively affect both the immune and endocrine systems in three ways: reducing inflammation, edema and chronic joint disorders; promoting healing of wounds, deeper tissues and nerves: and as a treatment for neurological disorders and pain.
How does red light therapy work? For over 30 years light therapy has proven to have powerful therapeutic benefits to living tissue in our body. It is a known fact that our bodies need light; without it, we would experience physiological and emotional changes, as well as become dangerously deficient in vitamin D. Our bodies, in general, have specific reactions to light, but with red light therapy in the 600–900 nm range, light energy has the ability to pass through human tissues much easier than other wavelengths. Once red light wavelengths are penetrated and absorbed into the skin, it transforms into cellular energy where it not only stimulates our body’s natural processes- it ‘jump starts’ a variety of metabolic events4 such as:
- Increases energy levels by the release of ATP
- Formation of new capillaries.
- Activates the lymphatic system
- Stimulates or decreases inflammation
- Increases blood flow/circulation, bringing more oxygen and nutrients to our cells and tissues
- Increased production of collagen and fibroblasts.
- Stimulates DNA or RNA synthesis
- Increased phagocytosis, or cellular clean up.
- Repairs and restores damaged soft connective tissue
- Lowering effects of oxidative stress/free radical damage, associated with many effects of aging
