What is red light therapy?Updated 2 years ago

Red light therapy (also known as photobiomodulation or low-level light therapy (LLLT)) is the application of specific wavelengths of light energy to tissue, to stimulate healing and anti-inflammatory effects.

Light therapy is safe, non-invasive, painless, and can be used safely on all skin types.

It has been widely researched and is validated by over 6000 peer-reviewed and published clinical research papers from prestigious institutions around the world.

Scientists tracked blood circulation during a single 5 minute Move+ session. They observed better blood flow and vascular health in the treated tissue!

Light therapy stimulates:

• Pain Relief & Recovery to the affected areas by increasing blood flow, releasing nitric oxide, and reducing oxidative stress.

• Near-Complete Repair of damaged areas by enhancing mitochondrial function, boosting collagen production and regenerating damaged cells faster and more effectively.

How does it work?

Red light therapy works by stimulating blood flow and energy production (ATP) in the cells of the targeted area.

It does this by triggering a cascade of cellular reactions, including the release of nitric oxide, which dilates blood vessels and increases the circulation of blood and nutrients into the joint.

It also stimulates the cell’s power houses - the mitochondria, to ramp up energy production and promote cell regrowth.

This reduces pain and inflammation, and triggers the healing process to help damaged tissues repair themselves.
