INFRARED LIGHT THERAPY
Harness the Power of Light for Healing and Recovery
Infrared Light Therapy is a cutting-edge, non-invasive treatment designed to promote healing, reduce inflammation, and improve overall well-being. Using wavelengths of light that penetrate deep into the skin and muscles, infrared therapy enhances circulation and stimulates cellular repair, making it an ideal addition to your wellness routine.
At MBODY, Infrared Light Therapy can be used as a standalone treatment or seamlessly incorporated into a massage, bodywork, or physical therapy session. Whether you’re looking to relieve chronic pain, accelerate recovery, or simply enhance your body’s natural healing processes, infrared therapy is a powerful tool for rejuvenation.
How Does Infrared Light Therapy Work?
Infrared light emits wavelengths that penetrate the skin, muscles, and even joints to promote a host of benefits, including:
• Cellular Repair: Stimulates ATP (energy) production, which fuels cell regeneration and repair.
• Improved Circulation: Enhances blood flow and oxygen delivery to tissues.
• Pain Reduction: Reduces inflammation and eases discomfort in muscles and joints.
• Detoxification: Supports the body’s natural detox process by improving lymphatic flow.
Unlike UV light, infrared light is completely safe and does not damage the skin or tissues.
