WHAT IS RED LIGHT AND NEAR INFRARED LIGHT THERAPY (NIR)

  • Red light wavelength is around 620-750nm; it is mainly use for cosmetic reasons for the skin, like wrinkle treatment as it enhances collagen production.

  • NIR is at the end of visible red light with wavelength of 750-1300nm.

    It penetrates deeper into the body for tissue, muscles and joints treatment after injury.

  • Light in the red or near-infrared region is an innovative treatment strategy for a wide range of neurological and psychological conditions. Photobiomodulation can promote neurogenesis and elicit anti-apoptotic, anti-inflammatory and antioxidative responses. Its therapeutic effects have been demonstrated in studies on neurological diseases, peripheral nerve injuries, pain relief and wound healing.

  • The photons can cause chemical changes within the cells and provoke various reactions, including the triggering of neuroprotective responses, improving blood flow, inducing metabolic changes and neurogenesis (Mitrofanis and Henderson, 2020).
