Red Light Therapy: How it Works

1. Stimulation of acupoints 

​

Application of the light to acupoints stimulates the point and sends signals to the brain.

​

2. Release of Muscle Tissues and Fascia

Releases cramps and tightness by passing through the skin and relaxing the muscle fascia.

3.Bio-stimulation and Cellular Regeneration

Red Light is absorbed into the Mitochondria of the cell promoting enhanced production of Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP), which is considered by biologists to be the energy currency of life. 

ATP production speeds up the natural healing process of the body by sending signals to the brain to increase anti-inflammatory responses and endorphin production. Healing can occur 60-80% faster with the use of red light.

4. Anti-Viral Properties

When applied to the carotid artery, light therapy can produce anti-viral effects in the body.

Cell Vibration Levels and Why they Matter

  • A healthy cell has a vibration level of roughly 660 nanometers.

  • When injury occurs, the vibrations in the affected cells decrease.

  • Red Light Therapy acts as a "jump start" for the cells, allowing the damaged cells to accept nutrients and eliminate toxins at a higher rate.

  • By increasing circulation, reducing inflammation, and initiating collagen production in the damaged tissues the body is able to promote healing more quickly and effectively. 

Blue Light Therapy: What makes it special?

  • Multiple studies have been performed showing the anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties of Blue Light.

  • Conditions such as scratches, rain rot, ring worm, and more have responded positively to the application of Blue Light.

  • Situations where there is a high chance for infection such as new wounds or recently sutured wounds can benefit greatly from Blue Light Therapy.

  • Blue light has also proven effective in romoval of heat, acting like an "ice light." 

  • Unlike topical treatments, light therapy assists in healing conditions from the inside out.

  • When used in combination with the red light on lesions or skin issues even more powerful outcomes can be achieved. By adding the anit-inflammatory properties of the Red Light along with the anti-bacterial/anti-fungal properties of the Blue Light, enhanced healing effects can occur.

Benefits of Red Light Therapy 

  • Reduction of pain and swelling 

  • Increased lymphatic activity 

  • Strengthened immune system 

  • Accelerated cell regeneration

  • Increased circulation

  • Relaxation of muscles

  • Increased anti-viral properties

  • Activation of collagen production

  • Regulation of serotonin levels

Benefits of Blue Light Therapy 

  • Accelerates tissue healing

  • Decreases inflammation, redness, and swelling

  • Facilitates healing without scarring 

  • Highly effective on bacteria and fungus

Photonic Light Therapy can be beneficial in the treatment of numorous conditions, such as:

  • Acute/Chronic injuries

  • Arthritis/Joint pain

  • Back pain

  • Colic/digestion issues

  • Circulation issues

  • Viral infections

  • Muscle strains and soreness

  • Tendon/Ligament injury

  • Open wounds and cuts

  • Immune system disorders

  • Body soreness

  • Lameness/Laminitis

  • Stifle and Hock issues

  • Skin conditions such as Scratches and Rain Rot

  • And more!

Though these lights are most effective in the hands of a professional along with a specifically designed program, there are many benefits to having your own device at home! For emergencies, immediate pain relief, and chronic or recurrent issues these devices can be an irreplaceable asset to have on site.
