Red Light Therapy

Red light therapy is an easy and effective treatment. Joovv suggests 10-minute sessions per treatment area. The session does not require anything other than exposing your skin and sitting or standing in front of the Joovv and letting your body absorb the light. This is a great time to meditate, read, or relax all while receiving high-quality red light therapy.

Red Light Therapy uses low levels of red or near-infrared light to help power your cells and promote healing and energy. The low wavelength red light produced by our Red Light Therapy machines that can be absorbed by the mitochondria in your body, which are responsible for many important processes in your day to day health, healing abilities, and energy production.

Red light therapy can also improve how well muscles perform, which means individuals can exercise for longer periods of time and with less risk of pain or injury. Researchers in one study enrolled 36 male participants with beginner or moderate physical activity habits. One-third of the participants performed leg presses then underwent red light therapy immediately afterwards. Another third did leg presses only, and the last group did not do either leg presses or red light therapy. The researchers found that those who underwent red light therapy after exercise were the only group that showed an increase in muscle performance.

Like cryotherapy, red light therapy can help people lose weight. Red light wavelengths create small openings in fat cells, which allow fatty acids to escape from the cells. Releasing these fatty acids, known as lipids, causes fat cells to wither. In one study, researchers found that, after a four-minute exposure to red light, fat cells released 80 percent of their lipids. By six minutes after red light therapy, the cells had released almost all the fat.

Light therapy benefits provided by the wavelengths in our products have been proven in many studies. Red and near-infrared light are energy for your cells. Exposing your body to this light enhances your cells to function as they are designed to. The human body is complex yet amazing! It is hard to predict the way your body will respond to Photobiomodulation and how quickly you will see results. Your cells will decide what healing needs to take place first.
