Why Red Light Therapy?

So many reasons. We know we don’t create enough vitamin D if we live in Canada, so we supplement - this is very important. 2,000-4,000 IU of Vitamin D is crucial to our mood and the healthy function of so many systems. What many of us don’t realize is animal cells evolved mitochondria from Chloroplasts (which capture photonic energy from light to provide energy in plant cells). This allows animals to create cellular energy - and function - in darkness, but it’s far from ideal. We need light to excite our mitochondria and promote cellular function, and the use of sunscreen to protect us from harmful UV rays also shields us from the benefits of the other wavelengths of light.

Red Light can penetrate deep into our tissues due to the small size of the photon, and stimulate our hemoglobin, cells, and the systems they support. This is a fast and effective means of combating nearly any illness stemming from cellular dysfunction, repairing damaged tissues from injury, and maintaining a high quality of life.
