How Red Light Therapy Works
Red Light Therapy works by delivering specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light into the skin and deeper tissues. These wavelengths stimulate the mitochondria (the energy centers of cells) to increase ATP production, which boosts the body’s ability to repair, regenerate, and function optimally.
As tissues receive more oxygen and energy, inflammation decreases, circulation improves, and healing accelerates. Many patients experience noticeable improvements in mobility, skin appearance, discomfort levels, and recovery speed within just a few sessions. Red Light Therapy is an excellent complement to chiropractic care because it helps relax tight muscles, reduce pain, and support long-term joint and tissue health.
