Light Therapy in Burnsville MN
At Thrive, we continuously seek avenues of growth and the improvement of our patients' health. Red Light Therapy, also known as Low Level Laser Therapy, or Photobiomodulation is one of those ways. Known for its tremendous benefits ranging from skin rejuvenation to inflammation reduction, Right Light Therapy is a tool to strengthen the body’s natural healing complex.
Red Light Therapy is a gentle treatment that uses infrared and red lights to penetrate through the body’s skin, stimulating energy-boosted cell production through the mitochondria. In conjunction with the red lights, the blue light on the panels has many advantages. The benefits of Light Therapy are:
Energy Boost from a Cellular Level
The Red Light stimulates the mitochondria in the cell causing a greater adenosine triphosphate (ATP) production. ATP oversees giving the body energy at a cellular level. The larger ATP production, the more energy the body has overall.
Inflammation Reduction in Burnsville MN
LT reduces inflammation through the process of vasodilation, which is the widening of blood vessels. This then causes better blood flow to the inflamed areas of the body.
Pain Management
Due to the activity in the cells that LT endorses, it has been shown to relieve pain and therefore beneficial for those with arthritis, recovering from surgery, athletes, and more.
Skin and Hair Health
The wavelengths work with Light Therapy’s ability to act as an anti-aging agent and kills acne-causing bacteria, reduces scars, reduces dryness and hyperpigmentation. With increased blood circulation, it enhances blood flow to the scalp and hair follicles.
Mood and Mental Health
The light exposure enhances cognitive function, improving one’s way of operating as well as producing melatonin, resulting in high alertness. LT has been used as treatment for depression and aid in seasonal affective disorder (seasonal depression.)
