Red Light Therapy
What Is Red Light Therapy?
Red Light Therapy (Photobiomodulation) is the medical use of monochromatic light emission from a low intensity laser diode (250 milliwatts or less) or an array of high intensity super luminous diodes (providing total optical power up to the 2000 milliwatt range).
The application of red and near infra-red light is designed to maximise the efficiency and performance of your brain. It delivers near infra-red energy to neurons, which helps to increase spatial awareness and reflex time and balance.
The light can penetrate the head and reach the brain, it is absorbed by cytochrome c oxidase in mitochondria, it increases blood flow, energy, neuroprotection, reduces inflammation and leads to brain repair and enhances brain optimisation.
