Clearlight® Light Therapy
Clearlight® Light Therapy, also known as Red Light Therapy, combines powerful red light (650nm) and near infrared (850nm) wavelengths to offer you the best therapy available today. Clearlight® Light Therapy provides the most proven and effective therapeutic wavelengths to the entire body reducing oxidative stress and stimulating the production of ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate)
This process, known as Photobiomodulation, has been extensively researched for many years and adds measurable energy to the mitochondria of your cells. The Clearlight® Light Therapy Tower can be used during your sauna session or as a stand-alone therapy outside your sauna. Light therapy has been tested across hundreds of peer-reviewed clinical trials with positive results.
The benefits of Red Light Therapy include:
- Reduction of Chronic and Acute Pain
- Skin Rejuvenation (boost colagen & elastin production)
- Tissue Regeneration
- Wound Healing
- Muscle Recovery
- Muscle Conditioning
- Testosterone Boost
- Reduced Inflammation
Clearlight® Light Therapy is the only red light therapy unit available using Variable Optics™. Most other light therapy units have a single optical output at 30 degrees. This limits the amount of light absorbed by the human body.
The light receptors in our skin absorb the Red and Near Infrared light. With a single optic there is a single acceptance angle. With our Variable Optics™ technology we use a mix of 7 to 60 degree optics creating multiple cross acceptance angles of the light waves. This allows the light to travel better in to our cells and offer more benefit.
Our Variable Optics™ technology allows you to maximize the benefits of light therapy in every session. This technology is only available with Clearlight® Light Therapy.
Cleveland clinic reports Red light therapy (RLT) is an emerging treatment that’s showing promise in treating wrinkles, redness, acne, scars and other signs of aging. Red light therapy (RLT) is a treatment that uses low wavelength red light to reportedly improve your skin’s appearance, such as reducing wrinkles, scars, redness and acne. It’s also touted to treat other medical conditions.
To date, there’s a lot of ongoing research, publication of small studies and a much discussion on the internet about the effectiveness of red-light therapy for all types of health uses.
How did interest in red light therapy evolve?
NASA originally began experimenting with red light therapy on plant growth in space and then to help heal wounds in astronauts. Like many developments, other potential uses began to be investigated.
In fact, red light therapy is already widely medically accepted in its use in photodynamic therapy. In this therapy, low-power red laser light is used to activate a photosensitizer drug. The interaction creates a chemical reaction that destroys cells. It’s used to treat some skin conditions, including skin cancer and psoriasis, acne and warts and other types of cancer.
How does red light therapy work?
Red light therapy is thought to work by acting on the “power plant” in your body’s cells called mitochondria. With more energy, other cells can do their work more efficiently, such as repairing skin, boosting new cell growth and enhancing skin rejuvenation. More specifically, certain cells absorb light wavelengths and are stimulated to work.
Red light therapy may work in skin health to:
- Stimulate collagen production, which gives skin its structure, strength and elasticity.
- Increase fibroblast production, which makes collagen. Collagen is a component of connective tissue that builds skin.
- Increase blood circulation to the tissue.
- Reduce inflammation in cells.
