RED LIGHT THERAPY
PlatinumLED BIOMAX Therapy Lights
Our lights are designed to deliver clinical-grade experience.
LED light therapy has been shown to offer many benefits - from relieving minor aches and pains to improving skin quality through collagen production.
​
Reduces inflammation
Near-infrared light reduces overall inflammation in the body by decreasing the presence of inflammatory markers. This reduction can help ease the symptoms associated with joint pain, sore muscles, autoimmune diseases, arthritis, traumatic brain injuries, and spinal cord injuries
Reduces recovery time
For high-performance athletes LED light therapy can help accelerate muscle repair following fatigue and injury. Mitochondria within cells are particularly responsive to LED therapy, and muscle cells are exceptionally rich in mitochondria. LED light therapy may also stimulate stem cells, further assisting in muscle recovery.
Improves circulation
In many studies, LED light therapy has been clinically proven to increase the diameter of blood vessels and to improve circulation. It also protects red blood cells against oxidative stress and limits platelet loss during surgical procedures
Promotes cellular health
One of the most critical outcomes of LED therapy on cellular function is the stimulation of collagen production. Collagen strengthens hair, is responsible for the health of connective tissue, and provides our skin with firmness and elasticity
Reduces pain
In clinical study, neuropathic pain caused by a spinal cord injury was dramatically reduced by the application of red light treatment. Near-infrared light wavelengths reduce overall pain by easing joint stiffness and soreness, diminishing inflammation, easing muscle spasms and enhancing blood flow
Improves skin health
LED light therapy can dramatically transform the skin. Red light wavelengths in particular target the mitochondrial chromophores within skin cells, generating production of collagen proteins. Collagen stimulation yields more holistic and enduring benefits than simply resurfacing the outer layers of the skin. Stem cells may also be activated, increasing tissue repair. The result is accelerated healing and wound repair, improved appearance in hypertrophic scars, a reduction in fine lines and wrinkles, and improved skin texture
Stimulates hair growth
Alopecia, or hair loss, is a common disorder affecting 50% of males over the age of 40 and 75% of females over 65. Studies have shown that LED light therapy can stimulate hair growth. Red light wavelengths are believed to stimulate epidermal stem cells in the hair follicle, shifting the follicle into the anagen (active growth) stage
Increases fertility
Men hoping to achieve a natural boost to their sex drives, sexual satisfaction, fertility, and physical performance can reap benefits of LED light therapy. Red and near-infrared wavelengths can stimulate photoreceptor proteins in the testes causing higher testosterone production. Other studies have theorized that low-level light therapy may affect the pineal gland in the brain, which bears a significant impact on reproduction

​
Light therapy is among the earliest recorded healing modalities. Solar therapy was used by the Egyptians, and forms of light therapy was also practiced by the ancient Greek, Chinese and Indians.
​
Clinical studies are now establishing how different wavelengths of light affect the body at a cellular level, the conditions that can be successfully treated using light therapy, and the optimal conditions needed to absorb the benefits of light-based treatments.
​
Red and infrared light that falls within the wavelength range of 630-850 nm is extremely beneficial, and often referred to as the "therapeutic window". These wavelengths of light have biologic effect on the body.
During a LED light therapy treatment, chromophores within our cellular mitochondria absorb red and infrared light photons, and convert them into energy, Mitochondria are the powerhouses of cells, responsible for making ATP (the cell's form of energy), and enhancing the consumption of oxygen. Once this light energy has been absorbed by the body, it is then used by the cells to build new proteins such as collagen and elastin and to assist with cellular regeneration.
