If you haven’t seen red light therapy popping up on your insta feed in some way shape or form we’d be super surprised, but either way as this wellness therapy starts to gain momentum and is being offered by more and more wellness spaces across Sydney we thought it was high time we took you through exactly what it is, what it does, the different ways you can receive it, and of course where in Sydney you can access red light therapy if you want to get around it!
 
What is Red Light Therapy and how does it work to benefit your health and wellbeing?
Red Light Therapy (RLT) is a non-invasive treatment that uses low-level red and near-infrared light to promote healing and rejuvenation in the body. Think of it as a burst of healthy light to your body that stimulates and enhances mitochondrial function giving our cells a boost so they can work more efficiently leading to improved energy production and tissue repair. This means that RLT can help with various conditions, including reducing inflammation, easing joint pain, and accelerating wound healing. 
 
It's also been linked to improved skin health, reducing fine lines, and boosting collagen production which is why if you’ve had a facial recently you might have noticed the integration of LED light therapy in your treatment, not to mention the rise in popularity of at home face light masks. 
 
The therapy has no down time making it a popular choice for those looking to support their well-being whether it’s used for sports recovery, anti-aging, pain relief or just to feel plain good!
 
How can you receive and experience Red Light Therapy? 
There are a number of different ways and devices that enable you to experience red light therapy and ultimately it really comes down to the area of your face and body that you want to bask in the glow of what this therapy offers. LED face light masks, wraps, free-standing panels, and full body beds/pods are all ways you can receive red light therapy.
