Introducing Red & Infrared Light Therapy at Flint Therapeutics: A Great Addition To Your Massage!

At Flint Therapeutics, we’re excited to introduce Red and Infrared Light Therapy, a scientifically backed treatment designed to target pain, promote healing, and rejuvenate the body. This innovative therapy harnesses specific wavelengths of light that penetrate the skin and deeper tissues to stimulate cellular repair, improve circulation, and reduce inflammation, making a great addition to your massage.

Red and infrared light therapy, also known as photobiomodulation (PBM), works by delivering low-level wavelengths of light directly to the body’s tissues. These wavelengths are absorbed by the mitochondria “the powerhouse of your cells” where they stimulate the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the energy source that fuels cellular function and repair.

Wavelengths and Their Effects

• 660nm (Red Light) Targets the surface layers of the skin, penetrating about 5-10mm deep. It’s ideal for promoting collagen production, improving skin health, and accelerating wound healing.

• 850nm (Near-Infrared Light) Penetrates up to 50mm into the body, reaching muscles, joints, and bones to reduce inflammation, relieve pain, and improve recovery.

How red & infrared light works

What Does the Research Say?

Numerous clinical studies have validated the effectiveness of red and infrared light therapy across various health concerns:

1. Pain Relief & Inflammation Reduction

• A study published in the Journal of Rheumatology found that infrared light therapy reduced pain and morning stiffness in patients with rheumatoid arthritis.

• Another study in the Journal of Pain Research demonstrated that PBM effectively reduces chronic neck pain, back pain, and joint discomfort.

2. Wound Healing & Skin Health

• Research in Lasers in Surgery and Medicine found that red light therapy improved skin healing and reduced scarring by enhancing collagen production and cell regeneration.

• PBM has also shown promising results in treating acne, rosacea, and fine lines.

3. Muscle Recovery & Athletic Performance

• A study in the American Journal of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation revealed that infrared light therapy significantly improved muscle recovery and reduced fatigue in athletes.

• It has become popular among professional athletes for post-workout recovery and injury prevention.

4. Neurological Support & Cognitive Function

• Research published in Frontiers in Neuroscience suggests that infrared light therapy may improve brain function, memory, and mood by enhancing blood flow and reducing oxidative stress.

• Studies are currently exploring its potential for supporting conditions like Alzheimer’s, Parkinson's, and traumatic brain injuries.

5. Immune System Support

• Infrared light has been shown to boost immune function by stimulating white blood cell production and enhancing the body’s ability to fight infections.

Who Can Benefit from Red & Infrared Light Therapy?

This versatile treatment is ideal for individuals experiencing:

• Chronic Pain & Joint Discomfort

• Muscle Soreness & Fatigue

• Post-Workout or Injury Recovery

• Arthritis, Fibromyalgia, or Inflammatory Conditions
