How it works
Inside a red light therapy session.
Position the panel
A red-light panel is aimed at the treatment area from a short distance, clothing is moved off the target zone.
Deliver specific wavelengths
Red and near-infrared wavelengths (typically 630-850 nm) penetrate skin and shallow tissue.
Support mitochondria
Photons are absorbed by cytochrome c oxidase, supporting cellular energy (ATP) production.
Compound the visit
