Red Light Therapy: Boost Cellular Energy, Naturally
Share
At Beach Cities Cryo & Wellness, we’re always exploring effective, science-supported ways to help our community feel more vibrant. One of our most popular wellness offerings is Red Light Therapy (RLT)—a non-invasive, low-level light treatment that supports cellular vitality, skin rejuvenation, and recovery from daily stressors.
What Is Red Light Therapy?
Red Light Therapy uses specific wavelengths of visible red and near-infrared light to reach up to 5 millimeters below the skin’s surface. These wavelengths stimulate mitochondria—the "powerhouse" of our cells—helping them generate more adenosine triphosphate (ATP), which fuels cellular repair and renewal.
Rather than heating the body like infrared saunas, RLT gently energizes cells to support overall wellness from within.
How It Works: Light Wavelengths That Matter
We focus on two key wavelengths in our studio sessions:
- Red Light (620–750nm): Targets the skin’s surface to stimulate collagen and elastin, promoting a smoother, more radiant appearance.
-
Near-Infrared Light (700–1200nm): Penetrates deeper into muscles and tissues, supporting cell repair and regeneration.
While far-infrared light (used in our infrared sauna therapy) operates at longer wavelengths and provides deep heat, it’s not part of red light therapy. However, combining RLT with infrared sauna sessions can enhance the overall experience.
Potential Wellness Benefits of RLT
While individual results vary, studies suggest Red Light Therapy may support:
- Temporary pain relief by reducing oxidative stress
- Skin health and radiance, including reduced appearance of fine lines
- Wound healing and tissue regeneration
-
Muscle recovery post-exercise or fatigue
These outcomes are part of a growing field of light-based wellness that supports non-invasive, natural self-care routines.
Combine Therapies for Maximum Glow
To create a holistic experience, many of our clients pair Red Light Therapy with:
- Halotherapy (salt therapy) for respiratory and skin wellness
-
Infrared Sauna for inflammation relief and deep relaxation
These treatments work in synergy to support balance, vitality, and a more radiant you.
