We combine advanced technology with a personalized medical approach to help you feel better, look brighter, and live more fully.
What Is Red and Infrared Light Therapy?
Also known as photobiomodulation therapy, red and infrared light therapy utilize precise wavelengths of light to stimulate your mitochondria, the energy-producing cells within your body. This increases the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which enhances cellular repair, reduces inflammation and improves circulation throughout the body.
We use both:
- Red Light (620–750 nm): Targets the skin to improve texture, tone and collagen production.
- Infrared Light (750–1200+ nm): Penetrates deeper into muscles, joints and nerves to ease pain, support hormonal balance and boost recovery.
What Red and Infrared Light Therapy Can Treat
Chronic Pain Relief
Red and infrared light therapy help reduce inflammation and improve circulation, providing effective relief for chronic pain conditions. It’s commonly used to manage arthritis, joint stiffness, back and neck pain, and nerve-related issues, such as neuropathy. Many patients report significant pain reduction after just a few sessions.
Skin Rejuvenation and Anti-Aging
Red light stimulates collagen and elastin production, helping to smooth fine lines, tighten pores and improve overall skin tone. It’s also beneficial for acne, rosacea and eczema by reducing inflammation and promoting healthy cell turnover. This therapy offers a natural alternative to injectables and harsh topical treatments.
Muscle Recovery and Injury Healing
Infrared light therapy enhances blood flow and accelerates tissue repair, making it an ideal treatment for post-workout recovery or injury healing. It helps reduce soreness, improve flexibility and accelerate recovery after surgery or physical strain. Athletes and active individuals often use it to boost endurance and performance.
Hormonal and Sexual Health
Infrared light supports hormonal balance by improving circulation and reducing inflammation in the endocrine system. It may enhance testosterone levels and erectile function in men and support vaginal health and libido in women. This therapy is also helpful for reducing stress-related hormone disruptions.
Brain Fog, Mood, and Sleep
Red light therapy can enhance sleep quality and mental clarity by regulating melatonin production and promoting healthy circadian rhythms. It’s been shown to reduce anxiety, lift mood and lessen symptoms of seasonal affective disorder. Many patients notice more restful sleep and reduced brain fog within weeks.
Immune Function and Fatigue
Light therapy enhances mitochondrial function and reduces oxidative stress, thereby supporting a stronger immune system. It promotes lymphatic drainage and detoxification, which can be particularly beneficial for individuals experiencing chronic fatigue and autoimmune issues. Patients often experience increased energy and improved resilience to illness over time.
What to Expect From Your Light Therapy Plan
Every treatment plan at Balanced Medical Solutions begins with a comprehensive medical evaluation, including blood tests, to ensure this therapy is suitable for your body and goals.
Here’s what you can expect:
- A full medical evaluation and lab panel to identify hidden underlying issues
- Personalized treatment plan based on your unique concerns and goals
- Comfortable, relaxing sessions (10–20 minutes) with no downtime
- Integration with hormone therapy, NAD+, IV therapy or weight loss programs, if needed
- Ongoing progress monitoring and protocol adjustment for optimal results
You’ll feel relaxed during your session. Many patients describe a gentle warmth as the light penetrates deeply and begins stimulating healing from within.
