Red Light Therapy
What Is Red light therapy?
Red light therapy is a non-invasive physical therapy treatment used to reduce pain and inflammation while promoting tissue healing and cellular recovery. We apply targeted light wavelengths to stimulate circulation, support muscle and joint repair, and improve tissue regeneration. Red light therapy is commonly used to treat muscle soreness, joint pain, soft tissue injuries, and post-accident inflammation as part of a comprehensive physical therapy treatment plan.
Red Light Therapy for Healing
Pain, inflammation, and delayed healing often develop due to injury, trauma, overuse, or post-accident stress on the body. Red light therapy targets affected areas by stimulating cellular activity and increasing circulation to support the body’s natural healing process. By reducing inflammation and promoting tissue repair, this treatment helps relieve pain, improve mobility, and support faster, more effective recovery during rehabilitation and daily activities.
Improving Circulation and Tissue Healing
Red light therapy improves circulation by stimulating blood flow to injured muscles and soft tissues. Increased circulation helps deliver oxygen and essential nutrients while supporting cellular repair and reducing inflammation. This process promotes tissue healing, decreases swelling, and accelerates recovery from injuries, making red light therapy a valuable part of comprehensive physical therapy care.
Red light therapy as Part of Physical Therapy
Red light therapy is most effective when integrated into a comprehensive physical therapy rehabilitation program. Physical therapists often combine this treatment with therapeutic exercise, manual therapy, and movement retraining to support long-term healing and recovery. This combined approach helps reduce recurring pain, improve tissue health, and restore overall function and mobility.
