FIND RELIEF FROM CHRONIC PAIN WITH LED NEAR AND FAR INFRARED LIGHT THERAPY

 

Rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis and fibromyalgia are well-known culprits of chronic pain but pain from cancer or other disease can also be the cause. With red light therapy, you’ll be able to reduce inflammation and swelling- two very large factors in dealing with chronic pain. Red light is FDA approved for treating chronic pain. In illness or injury, white blood cells gather at the site of damage, creating inflammation. "Chronic wounds are 'stuck' in the inflammatory phase of healing, after injury or illness triggers the immune response. Red and NIR light therapy resets the mitochondria so they can function normally again by triggering the cells to make anti-inflammatory proteins that will speed healing, while turning on antioxidant and energy-boosting genes. NIR light, which is invisible to the human eye, can provide therapeutic relief for people suffering from many types of inflammation, as well as arthritis.

Light therapy is really about channeling a wavelength of light energy to tissue that can activate the regenerative capacity of the cells, working quickly, effectively and gently treat from home, providing a great improvement in quality of patient life. 

The bio-mechanisms of light therapy also help to reduce pain in several other ways. One study found the anti-inflammatory effect of light therapy to be very similar to the pharmacological treatment of pain, but without the obvious potential for unpleasant or even serious adverse effects.

Tests into rheumatoid and osteoarthritis and fibromyalgia have shown red and infrared treatments, applied individually, or in combination can give effective short and medium term pain relief. 

Red and infrared wavelengths can penetrate tissues of the dermis between 1.0 and 2.0 inches..  The absorbed light energy is converted into biochemical energy in the form of nitric oxide. 

Naturally produced by the body, nitric oxide is a short-lived gas that widens and relaxes the blood vessels. In particular in the large veins and arteries. 

After just a short treatment time blood flow is increased to nerves and other tissues. This boost in local circulation is one of the reasons for the pain relief from fibromyalgia,  osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
