RED LIGHT THERAPY
Understanding the Benefits of RLT
RLT is a treatment that aids in the healing of the skin, muscle tissue, and other body parts. It exposes you to red or near-infrared light at modest intensities. Infrared light is a sort of energy that your eyes cannot see but that your body perceives as heat. Red light is comparable to infrared light, however, it is invisible.
- Improved circulation – helps promote the supply of essential nutrients and oxygen to the body’s cells. Poor circulation impairs nourishment and oxygen delivery, which promotes the growth of cancer cells in those tissues. Increasing circulation can help correct this since cancer cells cannot live in high-oxygen environments.
- Toxin purification of the skin – from the inside out thanks to sweat production brought on by sauna heat. The efficient circulation and sweating brought on by the sauna’s heat aid in the removal of waste and toxins such as pesticides, pollutants, and heavy metals. Neutralising the body’s built-up acids also maintains a healthy pH balance.
- Reduces inflammation and oxidative stress – this is important because the conditions favour tumour development and survival. One of the best ways to make our bodies less appealing to malignant cells is to reduce inflammation. Regular use of infrared saunas is a fantastic technique to relieve stress and inflammation.
- Regulation of the neurological system – Saunas soothe and relieve our sympathetic nervous system, which controls our “fight or flight” response while stimulating the parasympathetic nervous system, which controls our “rest and digest” response. Sauna heat has the power to suppress our “fight or flight” response, promoting greater immunological response, detoxification, and digestion.
Other names you might hear to describe RLT include:
- Low-level laser light therapy
- Low-power laser therapy
- Non-thermal LED light
- Soft laser therapy
- Cold laser therapy
- Biostimulation, photonic stimulation
- Photobiomodulation and phototherapy
Most illnesses and degenerative disorders are thought to be caused by oxidative stress. It also has a role in the inflammatory response to acute and chronic injury. Extensive research over the last two decades has demonstrated that oxidative stress can cause chronic inflammation, which can lead to chronic diseases such as cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, neurological problems, and pulmonary disease.
RLT has been used to treat pain, inflammation, and oedema for nearly four decades. Red Light’s effects, as scientifically defined, are photochemical, similar to photosynthesis in plants. Light decreases oxidative stress and raises ATP when applied at the proper power, frequency, and application duration. As a result, cell metabolism improves and inflammation decreases. Light is absorbed at the cellular level, lowering oxidative stress and thereby treating the source of inflammation.

What does Red Light Therapy Do?

How Does RLT Work?
How Does RLT Work?
RLT involves exposing your skin to a red-light lamp, device, or laser, this causes a metabolic reaction in cells that enhances the mitochondria. Mitochondria, also known as the “power generators” of your cells, absorb it and use it to produce more energy. This, according to some scientists, helps cells repair themselves and grow healthier. This promotes skin and muscular tissue repair. ATP is the energy-carrying chemical found in all living creatures’ cells (adenosine triphosphate).
RLT improves mitochondrial function, allowing a cell to produce more ATP. Cells can perform more efficiently, regenerate themselves, and repair damage with more energy.
RLT differs from a laser and intense pulsed light (IPL) therapies in that it does not cause skin surface damage. Laser and pulsed light therapies work by inducing tissue restoration by causing controlled damage to the skin’s outer layer. RLT avoids this unpleasant process by boosting skin renewal directly. RLT emits light that penetrates around 5 millimetres beyond the skin’s surface.
The skin is not injured or burned by red light therapy since it employs very low levels of heat. It is not the same type of light used in tanning salons, and it does not expose your skin to UV rays that are harmful to your skin.
Is Red Light Therapy safe
What are the possible side effects?
Are there any red light therapy dangers? Even though researchers aren’t clear on how or why the red light treatment works, it’s usually thought to be safe. There are also no hard and fast guidelines about how much light to use. Too much light can harm skin tissue, while too little can make it less effective.

Scientific Case Studies
Red Light Therapy promotes wound healing
Red Light Therapy for Diabetic Foot Ulcers
Red Light Therapy reduces Cancer side-effects
Red Light Therapy improves skin complexion and builds collagen
Red light therapy stimulates collagen production, which gives skin its structure, strength, and elasticity. It also increases the production of fibroblasts, which are the cells that create collagen. Collagen is a protein that is found in connective tissue and is used to make skin 13.
