What is Red Light Therapy:

Red light therapy is a procedure that uses LEDs to send red and near-infrared light wavelengths into your skin for medical and aesthetic reasons. It’s also known as phototherapy, low-level laser therapy (LLLT), and photobiomodulation (PBM). 

Red light therapy feeds energy directly to the mitochondria, which is the cell that produces power for the rest of our bodies. This promotes better blood flow and cell production, healing wounds quicker and promoting cell turnover and collagen, effectively eliminating fine lines, wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and scarring. Conversely, some red light therapy devices also have infrared light, which is a deep, penetrating light. This form of light therapy penetrates deeper into the skin than just red light alone, improving tissue circulation and healing inflammation that may cause chronic pain such as: 

• Rheumatoid arthritis 
• Tendonitis 
• Carpal tunnel syndrome 
• Osteoarthritis 
• Neuropathy 

By stimulating blood flow, red light therapy also removes more nitrous oxide from the body which is a byproduct of oxidative stress. Oxidative stress causes fatigue, brain fog, pain in the muscles and joints, and mental health disorders such as depression and anxiety.

How to Use Red Light Therapy at Home:

RehabMart is proud to offer quality manufacturers such as Hooga red light therapy devices. These handheld red light therapy devices for home use allow for more targeted and accessible treatment, eliminating the need to visit a clinic, spa, or gym to receive therapy. Handheld red light therapy comes in many different forms such as:

• Red light therapy wands: the wands offer the most portability for travel and home use. These devices allow people to use red light therapy for dogs.
• Light therapy masks: for a spa-like treatment at home, red light therapy masks can be combined with moisturizers and serums to work against wrinkles, acne, and hyperpigmentation
• Red light therapy hats: studies have found that using red light therapy for hair loss is an effective and non-invasive way to regrow hair. The increased blood flow and energy stimulate the proteins in the mitochondria to promote growth and help to stop hair loss.
• Light therapy wraps: red light therapy wraps allow targeted treatment by positioning the red light therapy device directly on the part of the body most in need of treatment. 

Red light therapy can also help alleviate some symptoms of certain mental disorders, such as Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), depression, insomnia, and executive function disorders.
