Red light therapy (RLT) is a non-invasive treatment that uses low-level wavelengths of red or near-infrared light to stimulate natural healing processes in the body. The LUMEBOX delivers both Red (660nm) and Near Infrared (850nm wavelengths simultaneously from each bulb for maximum benefit.
The light penetrates the skin and is absorbed by the cells, especially the mitochondria (the “powerhouse” of the cell). This boosts energy production (ATP), which helps cells repair and function better.
Both red light at 660nm and near infrared light at 850nm have been shown to enhance cellular function.
The primary difference is that NIR has been shown to penetrate deeper than red light.
Because of this:
If you are unsure if you should use NIR or red light, LumeBox recommends using the combined mode with both NIR + Red.
