Deep dives

Understanding Red Light Therapy

Red light therapy operates within a specific range of wavelengths, generally between 600 and 900 nanometers, which includes visible red light and near-infrared light. This range has shown benefits such as increased energy production in cells by enhancing mitochondrial function. The absorption of red light by cytochrome C oxidase in the mitochondria helps break the bond with nitric oxide, allowing for improved oxygen uptake and ATP synthesis. Understanding the scientific foundation of red light therapy is crucial, as it demystifies its mechanisms and highlights the differences in therapeutic applications versus traditional infrared saunas.
