Red Light Therapy
Red Light Therapy for clients in Reno, Carson City, Sparks, Spanish Springs, Truckee, and Lake Tahoe areas.
Localized Intense LED Light Therapy
Infrared light at 630nm to 850nm wavelength has the longest waves of our LED system and can penetrate the skin and reach the inner tissues of the body. Once the infrared light has reached the inner tissue, it begins to warm the body and increase blood flow to the various tissues. By increasing blood flow, the body can decrease healing time and reduce inflammation which aids in pain relief. A positive side effect of red LED light is increased collagen in the skin which offers a more youthful appearance. It has been successfully used to aid in hair regrowth as well.
"Increases muscle performance, treats muscle and joints, and increases blood flow — making more oxygen available. It allows athletes to push their limits."
What is Red Light Therapy?
Since 1996 researchers have shown that the cellular benefits of localized red and near infrared LED Light Therapy cascade down into the tissues organs and systems providing a preventive and restorative effect. Why not apply this to the entire body or specific areas of the body that need it most?
LED’s deliver light to the tissues and cells of the body in a similar way to how plants absorb light energy from the sun utilizing UV-Free, beneficial light rays. These rays energize cells and stimulate the body’s natural processes that build new proteins and regenerate cells. They also stimulate mitochondrial action and can offer relief from pain, inflammation, increase blood circulation, improve healing time, and cause lipolysis in fat cells for a natural alternative to liposuction.
The evidence is overwhelming.
LED light therapy helps people FEEL, THINK, LOOK and PERFORM better.
All the research mentioned is based on studies posted on the NIH PubMed website. The purpose of highlighting these studies is to eliminate manufacturer skewed claims and biases.
The cellular benefits include these key activities:
- Improve skin tone
- Reduction of pain
- Accelerated wound healing and surgical recovery
- Improve muscular performance & recovery (strength, endurance & recovery )
- Speed recovery from illness and injury
- Reduce oxidative stress and inflammation (the leading cause of disease)
- Detoxifies cell waste and free radicals
- Increase nutrient transfer in cells
- Restoration of energy metabolism and mitochondrial function (energy & aging )
- Expands cellular energy (ATP)
- Builds nitric oxide – The miracle molecule
- Increases circulation and relaxes arteries
- Protects the nervous, cardiovascular and musculoskeletal systems

The Real Question is Does Red Light Therapy Really Work?
NASA had that same question in the early 1990s and got to work. After finding that red light therapy activated natural plant growth in space, they started researching medical applications for people. NASA’s findings demonstrated health benefits from specific wavelengths of red light delivered through light emitting diodes and lasers – within the right spectrum wavelength.
The medical science community took notice and over the last 3 decades, there’s been extensive clinical research on the various medical applications of red light therapy from red lasers to LED lights.
The results are extremely encouraging for people seeking natural, non-invasive treatments for a wide range of medical conditions including but not limited to:
• Acute Pain & Inflammation
• Chronic Pain Syndromes
• Neck and Back Pain
• Headaches & TMD – TMJ
• Rotator Cuff/Frozen Shoulder/Bursitis
• Elbow & Carpal Tunnel
• Knee Pain
• Foot Pain & Ankle Sprains
• Plantar Fasciitis
• Disc Injuries
Here’s the short answer: yes, light therapy definitely works, and it’s backed by a wealth of published research.
