Everyone Needs Healthy Light, But Most People Don’t Get Enough
Light Therapy Supports a Wide Range of Systemic Health Benefits
Light therapy is a rare treatment that really is one-size-fits-all. Whether you’re an elite athlete, a weekend warrior, a busy mom, or a senior trying to stay active, you can benefit from more healthy light in your life. Light is essential for our health and cellular function, just like water, sleep, and the nutrients from food. The human body is designed to function with an abundance of natural sunlight, but with our modern lifestyles, most people don’t get nearly enough light every day. The average people spends over 90% of their time indoors. That’s not nearly enough natural light for optimal health and balance! Worse yet, much of the time we spend indoors is filled with bright blue light from screens and overhead lighting, which can have a negative effect on sleep and circadian rhythms.
Light Therapy Delivers Healthy Light in Your Home
Light therapy is an easy way to add healthy light to your life, in the comfort of your home,
at any time of day, no matter the weather or season. An in-home light therapy device like a Redfy treats your body with red and near infrared (NIR) wavelengths of light, delivered directly to your skin and cells.
Redfy Treatments are Quick, Simple, and Non-Invasive: Light therapy is quick: Redfy recommends 10-20 minutes per treatment area. It’s also super easy: all you have to do is sit or stand in front of the device and your body & cells take in the light. Redfy treatments are also completely non-invasive and don’t include any ultra violet (UV) rays.
Save Thousands
A single LED light therapy session ranges from about $25 to $85, depending on your area of the country and whether you’re combining it with other treatments. Redfy Home LED kits can cost from $19 to $390 or more.
Red Light Therapy Benefits
Inflammation and Pain Relief: Light therapy treatments help your body’s natural inflammation process as you recover from illness or injury. Red light therapy also supports arthritis and joint pain relief by improving blood flow to damaged tissues.
Improved Blood Flow: One of the potential benefits of light therapy is a significant increase in blood circulation following treatment sessions. This indicates tissues are receiving more oxygen and other nutrients that are important for healing. At the same time, light helps the body and circulatory system rid itself of toxic byproducts.
Sleep Optimization: Healthy light intake is essential for sleep and maintaining natural circadian rhythms. Our brains interpret light as a sign of when to be awake and asleep, and when to make crucial sleep hormones like melatonin. Bright blue light at night can knock your sleep cycle out of whack, but red light is a lower-intensity alternative that can help support longer, more restful sleep.
Recovery, Healing, and Performance: Light therapy is widely used by trainers and pro athletes to improve fitness, boost physical performance, and support the recovery process. Muscle cells require a great deal of energy, and grow and strengthen through a process of tears and repairs. Light therapy helps your body produce and use energy more efficiently. Supporting circulation and inflammation reduction with light therapy can also help you heal and recover after injuries and workouts.
Skin Health and Beauty: Taking in healthy light is crucial for skin health. Red and NIR light promotes balance across the body and skin by enhancing cellular respiration, making energy
production more efficient, with less oxidative stress.
