How Does Infrared LED Light Therapy Work?

A closer look at how light therapy with infrared diodes can help promote the healing process in the body at the cellular level. All cells have a miniature power plant called mitochondria where our cells' energy is produced. This energy is called Adenosine Tri-Phosphate or (ATP). ATP is formed from oxygen and glucose which are carried to the cells by blood flow. Lack of ATP production can create sensations of pain, and in some cases a lack of sensation (neuropathy). Infrared light therapy can stimulate ATP production by the increased blood flow to the nerves and other cells. Light therapy also stimulates the release of nitric oxide from hemoglobin into the blood stream. The benefits of this release of nitric oxide are a reduction in inflammation, tissue regeneration, pain reduction and an environment for enhanced healing. Hemaglobin in the blood, absorbs the near infrared light energy, thereby releasing nitric oxide. The results are improved sensation, reduced pain, and better sleep at night. Increased oxygenation acts to reduce inflammation and offers the body shorter healing times.

Thanks so much so informative plus easy to understand and get treatment 👍😊❤

Very informative! Great presentation & narrator. Thank you very much!

So well explained, thank you.

At 2:59 you state that Infrared radiation is more energetic than light in the visible spectrum, whereas in my understanding, the reverse is actually the case just as UV radiation is more energetic than visible radiation which is why UV radiation can cause skin and internal damage because of the higher frequencies. It seems to me that it might be better to say that the body is more "susceptible" to IR radiation due to the matching of IR radiation with the chemical processes in the body. Please let me know if you agree or not.

Wonderful

super-well explained - thanks!

What wavelengths of red and infrared lasers are most effective for growing hair on the head? And what should be the power of these lasers?
What happens to the damage to the head if these forces are exceeded?

[@vivianastridge2167]

All published scientific papers indicated that infrared penetrates skin to a depth of 6mm. So how come it is stated here in this video that infrared penetrates to a depth of 10cms? Please clarify and thank you.

[@alexc7857]

Infrared and Near Infrared are different, he is speaking about near infrared which penetrates 2.5 inches or so

[@vivianastridge2167]

@@alexc7857 Thank you for your comment. Rather than merely restate what has already been stated, it would have been more to the point to provide links to information that scientifically state depths of penetration of near and far infrared radiation. The many papers and charts available on the Net all clearly indicate that penetration depths are in the order of a few millimeters.I would appreciate that you provide links which state otherwise. I hope you will be able to help and thank you.

Can light therapy helps people suffer from stroke?

[@laradaniel01]

Yes, im no expert but the benefits to the brain cells ive seen on videos is very promising

do you know if someone with hearth problems can use infrared light and if applyiing direct infrared light is good if can make tumors be smaller or grow?

[@Petunia-Greene]

I’m not a doctor nor do I have expert knowledge in RLT, however; anything that boosts the mitochondria is good for those with cancer I would think because that condition is caused when the mitochondria is heavily damaged.
This is my logical conclusion and as stated, I have no special knowledge on this so it’s just a thought.

[@bahram6133]

infrared is not more energetic than visible light... the lower the wavelenght, the higher the energy.

Anti aging potential? What wavelength used?

[@Ramiromasters]

Whatch Ted-EX the fourth phase of water.

They say 630nm to about 1300nm helps but laser light at those wavelengths help hair growth! Look at laser combs/headbands. I have been researching red LED and red laser for wrinkle/antiaging as well as for hair growth in spots I have gradually lost hair (forehead hairline and temples). There is study evidence that says it works for the hair growth, where follicles have been miniaturized but not yet completely gone), so it will not grow hair where there was none. I would not use laser on my face but I do use red and blue LED (blue for acne and pores reduction) on my face. I am about to purchase a laser comb for my hair - so we'll see if it works in my particular case. Red LEDs have also been combined with red laser light (btw laser therapy is called low light laser therapy or LLLT) on the hair growth laser combs to help give it a double shot for hair growth. Antiaging products have come a long way, I have found that glycolic acid peels and retinol products marketed for acne do very well to gradually get rid of wrinkles. I have been doing the peels once a month for years, it works- just added a form of retinol and now that seems to help also. It just dries out the skin a bit so moisture needs to be infused back into the skin which is what the red LEDs also help to do!

[@mamaboocee]

@Essel Ellis interesting! Do you mean red LED or the laser caps. I use both, LED and laser. The laser, of course only comes in red for hair growth and i dont know if they come in other colors or what those benefits would be. But the LED does come in different colors with different benefits. Blue is good for stunting bacterial growth and scalp or skin fungus, red is good for collagen production and hair growth. I do have an LED device for scalp and face. Both the LED and Laser devices seem to work fine for me.
Assuming you are talking about the laser caps, in what way are the caps better? I know they take less time, and allow hands-free use, but are the caps more effective than the 9 laser comb? I opted for the cheapest but highest rated comb, figuring a laser is a laser - i will just spend more time using it. I think 500 bucks or more for the cap is way too expensive, especially for a first purchase to see if it even works (and it does for me) but even if you know it works - would it be more effective in the long run? Or just more convenient and time-saving. And can you use it more during each day for better results (the directions say use it for only a limited amount of time for 3 days a week and no more)? Will going over that amount be better or worse? Since covid-19, I have a great deal of time on my hands and using my comb while watching TV is easy. And affords me the time to just sit and think, which we sometimes need to do. I would love to hear your experience with the cap and if adding more time and more frequency of use will make it more or less effective, damaging or beneficial. Thanks for the comment! 😁

Where did you buy your laser cap and is it near infared
