Red light is a type of light that's used in red light therapy (RLT), a noninvasive treatment that uses low-level red and near-infrared light to improve the appearance and health of the skin and other parts of the body.

Here are some benefits of Red Light Therapy (RLT) beds: 

Skin health: RLT may help with skin conditions like acne, rosacea, eczema, psoriasis, and scars. It may also help reduce wrinkles, fine lines, and age spots. RLT can increase blood circulation to the skin, which may help with skin aerobic respiration.

Muscle health: RLT may help repair muscle tissues and reduce joint pain. It may also help reduce general soreness and delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). 

Inflammation: RLT may help reduce inflammation in cells. 

Sleep: Red light may be a calming light color for sleep. Using a red nightlight a few hours before going to bed may help you fall asleep easier. 

Mood: RLT may improve mood and promote relaxation by boosting serotonin levels. It may also help alleviate symptoms of seasonal affective disorder (SAD). 

Energy levels: RLT may help boost energy levels and combat fatigue. 

How did interest in red light therapy evolve?

NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration) originally began experimenting with red light therapy on plant growth in space and then to help heal wounds in astronauts. Like many developments, other potential uses began to be investigated.

How does red light therapy supposedly work?

Red light therapy is thought to work by acting on the “power plant” in your body’s cells called mitochondria. With more energy, other cells can do their work more efficiently, doing things like repairing skin, boosting new cell growth and enhancing skin rejuvenation. More specifically, certain cells absorb light wavelengths and are stimulated to work.

Red light therapy may work in skin health to:

Stimulate collagen production, which gives skin its structure, strength and elasticity.

Increase fibroblast production, which makes collagen. Collagen is a component of connective tissue that builds skin.

Increase blood circulation to the tissue.

Reduce inflammation in cells.

For what skin conditions or treatment is red light therapy being tried?

Red light therapy is promoted as a treatment for some common skin conditions, including to:

• Improve wound healing

Is red light therapy safe?

Red light therapy appears to be safe and isn’t associated with any side effects, at least, if used as directed. This therapy isn’t toxic, not invasive and not as harsh as some topical skin treatments.

What other medical conditions is red light therapy being promoted for?

To relieve pain and inflammation associated with ankle tendonitis, rheumatoid arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome and osteoarthritis of the knee.
