At Solea Beauty Lounge, we use a number of highly effective treatments to help you become your best self. One of these treatments is Red Light Therapy (RLT). Let us tell you what it is and how it can be beneficial for your health.
RLT is a painless procedure that uses intense light from red LEDs to target specific areas of the skin. Red light therapy is used for:
General recovery – improved sleep and mood, increased energy
Treating various diseases – e.g., acne, arthritis
Solving skin problems – e.g., wrinkles, scars)
Relieving muscle and joint discomfort – inflammation and post-injury.
The procedure is safe and has no negative side effects.
Red light therapy, lasers, and pulsed light are all types of light therapy, but they differ in intensity, wavelength, and how they interact with body tissues.
RLT uses a low, continuous wavelength of light that has a therapeutic effect on various tissues without causing damage or problems. It penetrates deeper into the skin than other types of light therapy, making it more effective in muscle and bone rehabilitation.
Red light therapy affects the cells of the body, specifically the mitochondria. Mitochondria are miniature power plants inside the cell.
Normally, this process slows down over time. Primarily due to improper lifestyle, aging, and other factors. RLT increases the power of energy production within the mitochondria, allowing the cell to produce more ATP.
ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is a molecule that carries energy to other cells.
The more energy the cells receive, the more efficiently they can function, rejuvenate, and repair damage.
The procedure can help reduce inflammation, improve muscle recovery, and relieve muscle soreness after intense exercise.
As people age, their bodies may take longer to recover from injuries and experience increased soreness and inflammation in their muscles/joints. Red light therapy can help alleviate these problems and improve the overall quality of life.
RTL has been shown to improve skin texture and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It also helps fight skin conditions such as psoriasis and acne.
Red light therapy reduces discomfort and improves mobility. Helps with chronic neck and back pain
It improves the overall mood, and symptoms of depression and panic attacks (feelings of anxiety) gradually disappear.
RTL normalizes the body’s circadian rhythm and improves the production of melatonin (a hormone that is directly related to sleep quality).
As with any therapy, you should consult your physician before using RLT.
