So what is red light therapy?
The Photizo red light therapy treatment units are ultramodern photobiomodulation devices. Photobiomodulation (or PBM) utilises the healing power of red and near infrared light. This is proven to be effective in accelerating the natural healing processes of your body, reducing swelling and inflammation, stimulating your immune system and relieving pain caused by underlying health conditions or injuries.
The red light therapy provided by our Photizo hand-held devices use light emitting diodes (LED’s) to emit this red and near infrared light. It is completely natural, non-invasive and penetrates into your skin, where it stimulates cells throughout that area of your body, without needing any recovery time afterwards.
There’s already plenty of clinical evidence and real-world proof that red light therapy (photobiobodulation or PBM) is extremely effective for healing and to improve wellness.
PBM has already been studied in hundreds of clinical trials, with amazing improvements in skin health, collagen production, physical performance and muscle recovery, sleep, joint pain, inflammation and much more besides. And that’s without drugs, chemicals or other invasive procedures.
In addition to proven healing effects, we believe scientists and researchers have only just scratched the surface of what this healing modality is capable of.
Elite sportsmen and women across the world are using light therapy including Olympians of all kinds including gymnasts, mountain bikers and triathletes. What’s more, world-class personal trainers, natural health leaders and equine and canine animal athletes worldwide are using red light therapy proactively every day for healing and natural health benefits.
What does red light therapy do?
Photizo red light therapy works by increasing the energy in the cells of your body. Your cells function less well after damage caused by injury, surgery or disease, or if your body is slower to heal from conditions such as diabetes or the ageing process.
So, the red light works by making the damaged cell work better and more efficiently. The energy in the light stimulates the mitochondria and promotes the process of Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP). This restores the health of the cell supporting a quicker recovery or ongoing management of your condition.
This speeds up the natural healing process of your body, reducing swelling and inflammation, stimulating your immune system and relieving pain. Cells that are damaged after an injury trauma are also rejuvenated. In addition, red light therapy is so gentle that you can use it frequently without causing more damage to injuries or suffering other side effects.
