What is Red Light Therapy?

Red light therapy refers to the use of low wavelength red, infrared or near infrared light to trigger healing and rejuvenation in the body. While these therapies are relatively new, they have shown promising outcomes and no documented side effects when administered correctly. 

Red light therapy may also be referred to as:

  • RLT
  • Low-level laser therapy (LLT)
  • Low-power laser therapy (LPLT)
  • Photobiomodulation (PBM) or phototherapy
  • Non-thermal LED light
  • Soft laser therapy
  • Cold laser therapy (offered at select locations)
  • Biostimulation or photonic stimulation

First pursued for its uses to treat skin conditions like psoriasis and skin cancer, RLT has grown in visibility and application as its benefits are explored further. RLT has been used for over a decade in spaces such as dermatologist offices, but has recently gained more attention. Now, on top of its help in healing skin-related issues, RLT is also being leveraged for other anti-inflammatory and recovery-boosting effects.

A beautiful picture of a sun, but Light Lounge RLT does not involve any harmful UV rays and should not be painful.

How Does It Work?

When you attend an appointment for red light therapy in Boulder, CO, you will expose your skin to a red light for a set period of time. While the process may resemble lying in a tanning bed, RLT does not involve any harmful UV rays. Users may feel warmth or a slight stinging sensation, but red light therapy should not be painful.

Because red light penetrates deep inside the layers of the skin, it stimulates the mitochondria of the cells. Since the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell, this stimulation creates more energy, allowing cells to repair themselves, create new growth, and work more efficiently. By boosting blood flow and cell energy, RLT triggers healing and anti-inflammatory processes within the body.

RLT has been used to treat pain resulting from conditions including:

  • Arthritis
  • Burns
  • Tendinitis
  • Dental pain and tenderness
  • Bone fracture recovery

FAQs

When light that is in the red, near infrared, and infrared spectra is applied to the body, inflammation and pain are decreased, and healing is accelerated. Light therapy does this by reducing excessive oxidative stress at the cellular level with no documented nor reported negative side effects.

From folks who are suffering from chronic pain (light therapy can alleviate pain without drugs) to people who want to get more out of their training (light therapy can help increase performance and decrease recovery time).

Clinical trials and 4000 laboratory studies demonstrate that light therapy (also called photobiomodulation) has no negative side effects. It has been proven to heal soft tissue injuries, help with TBI, relieve pain without using harmful drugs and painkillers. For more evidence based information please see our BLOG.

    Red Light Therapy – Personal Results & Supporting Research Written after one session at The Light Lounge, Boulder I recently tried red light therapy (also called photobiomodulation) at The Light Lounge in Boulder and was surprised by how much better I felt afterward. After just one session, I noticed a clear reduction in pain in both my neck (specifically in the cervical facet joints) and my knees. Before the session, I had been going down my stairs at an angle to ease the pressure on my knees. Afterward the light therapy, I was able to walk down the steps straight on, without discomfort. Which felt huge. I tend to be skeptical of new wellness trends, especially ones that promise wide-ranging benefits. I started reading up on the science behind it. Red light therapy works by using specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light (usually between 630nm and 850nm) that penetrate the skin and interact with the mitochondria in our cells. This process helps boost cellular energy (ATP), reduce oxidative stress, and trigger anti-inflammatory effects in the body. Here are a few research findings that stood out: • A 2009 meta-analysis in The Lancet found that low-level light therapy significantly reduced pain in people with chronic neck pain across several randomized trials. • A 2014 RCT published in Lasers in Medical Science showed improved knee function and reduced pain in osteoarthritis patients who received red light therapy. • A 2017 review in Pain Research and Management explained how red light therapy reduces inflammation and helps heal soft tissue and joint structures. I know more research is still unfolding—especially around ideal treatment plans and long-term results—my own short-term experience was meaningful enough that I’ve decided to sign up for their 3-month membership to give it a fair shot. If you’re dealing with chronic joint pain or stiffness, it might be worth looking into. At the very least, it gave me noticeable relief without meds or side effects, and that alone makes it worth exploring further.

    Relaxed. Swelling went down Have you ever bit your cheek? Well mine was hurting. Hurting bad. It had been several days and it wasn’t getting better. Dentist? Doctor, I thought? Urgent care? Frankly I don’t like the co-pay, I don’t like the wait. The drugs. What about the Lightlounge? I remembered an “inflammation “ setting on the pod last time I was in. The right side of my face was visibly swollen and there was a pain under my right jaw day and night. I checked my app. There was an opening that morning, and I decided that it might help my pain to squeeze in a quick session. (For some reason, I usually fall asleep when I get in the pod. Does that ever happen to any of you?) I felt myself waking up twice during my 15 minute session. My toe tapped against the shell to shake me awake the first time. I realized that the red lasers were still on, and was happy to be able to return to my dream. The second time I woke, I felt like I had been in there for quite some time – like I had taken a well-deserved nap on a rainy afternoon. But it was 10:30am, and I needed to get back to the office. Worried that the timer might have malfunctioned, I pushed the shell up to open the pod. (The lights were all still on, but it wasn’t hot.) I stood and walked around to the screen. It showed that the “inflamation” program was still running. Then about three seconds later, it shut down, the red lights went off, and the room was silent again. I smiled; beside myself that I’d awakened almost exactly at the end of my therapy. What a power nap, I thought! My next sensation was that…as I opened and shut my mouth, wiggling my tongue from side-to-side,...my mouth felt a lot better! It was as if the pain and swelling that was there around my cheek, had somehow drained down and away when I emerged from the pod and stood upright. That did NOT happen this morning, after a mediocre night’s sleep. But it DID…just now after one dream, fifteen minutes on my back, and a feeling of restful awakening??!! Thank you!

    As someone who hits the gym hard, recovery is a crucial part of my routine, and the Light Lounge Boulder has been a game-changer. After intense workouts, I’ve been using their light therapy sessions to speed up recovery and reduce soreness. The difference has been incredible — I feel less fatigued, my muscles recover faster, and I can get back to training harder than ever.

    I had bone on bone osteoarthritis in my hip. I tried everything from PT, dry, needling, massage, and stretching, and nothing would work. I saw a Facebook post about the Light Lounge get out of pain three weeks later I felt so much better now it’s been six months later and I feel amazing. I’m back to my old life. Thank you, Light Lounge. Absolutely, the best light therapy pod on the market.

    PLEASE MAKE SURE MY LAST NAME IS CHANGED TO JUST M. I was dealing with systemic inflammation that was quite bad. This began to change after a couple of months and now I can safely say it is now under control. I attribute this to my sessions in the Light Pod. The folks there are great and the place is calm and clean. I am grateful to have found Light Lounge.
