Radiant Light Therapy

Radiant Light Therapy is an advanced form of traditional complementary therapy using a specific colour light to stimulate recognized acupuncture points. This therapy is also referred to as Photobiomodulation (PBM), cold laser, low-level laser therapy or laser acupuncture.

Radiant Light Therapy is a safe, natural and non-invasive way to promote healing and control pain. The body’s tissues can absorb the radiant light at a cellular level, converting it to cellular energy as Adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is the source of energy for of the cell and storage at the cellular level.

We use both red and infrared light because they are both proven effective for different purposes. Infrared light penetrates deep into the muscles to promote blood flow and bring relief. Red light stimulates mitochondrial function for healing and detox. Not all light therapy devices utilize both red and infrared light, which means your treatments will be superficial and ineffective. You need both.

Studies have shown that ATP accelerates activity in the mitochondria of the cell, as well as improving blood flow in the area being treated, speeding healing and minimizing pain. As the brain signals to release endorphins and serotonin into the body, this chain reaction:

  • Reduces pain and swelling
  • Strengthens the immune system
  • Accelerates cell regeneration
  • Increases anti-viral properties
  • Increases anti-viral properties
  • Encourages collagen production
  • Regulates serotonin levels
