Red light therapy is a simple, non-invasive treatment that shines red and near infrared light on a person&#8217;s skin and reaches the cells. CURED Light Therapy uses high-quality LEDs that shine red and near infrared light onto your body. This is like certain wavelengths of natural sunlight, which your body needs, but CURED Light Therapy provides this without the heat or UV rays that sunlight does.<\/p>\n<p>Red light therapy treatments can improve cellular function and bring better balance and energy efficiency throughout the body. CURED Light Therapy devices provide high quality red light therapy, which has a positive effect on sleep, inflammation, the skin and supports better recovery.<\/p>\n<p>Light therapy for the skin was originally discovered by NASA. <a href=\"https:\/\/curedlighttherapy.com\/nl\/rood-licht-therapie-klinisch-onderzoek\/\">NASA investigated<\/a> the use of LED therapy in tissue healing and found the positive results here.<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t<div id=\"accordion-1246509531\" class=\"accordion-item\">\n\t\t<a id=\"accordion-1246509531-label\" class=\"accordion-title plain\" href=\"#accordion-item-how-does-red-light-therapy-work?\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-1246509531-content\" >\n\t\t\t<button class=\"toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle\"><i class=\"icon-angle-down\"><\/i><\/button>\n\t\t\t<span>How does Red Light Therapy work?<\/span>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<div id=\"accordion-1246509531-content\" class=\"accordion-inner\" aria-labelledby=\"accordion-1246509531-label\" >\n\t\t\t\n<p>Red light therapy works by improving cellular function and promoting greater efficiency and balance in the cellular energy production process.<\/p>\n<p>Humans have trillions of cells, and all of them need that energy to do their jobs and keep our bodies in balance. We convert this energy from food, water and oxygen, most efficiently in a vital process called cellular respiration. The product of cellular respiration is adenosine triphosphate (<a href=\"https:\/\/curedlighttherapy.com\/nl\/woordenboek\/\">ATP<\/a>) energy that our bodies use every second. The more efficiently we can create ATP, the better we feel and function.<\/p>\n<p>Red and NIR light improve the efficiency of the cellular respiration process and help your body make and use ATP energy more effectively. Light does this by affecting the <a href=\"https:\/\/curedlighttherapy.com\/nl\/woordenboek\/\">mitochondria<\/a>, the powerhouses of the cell. Red light therapy can increase the number of mitochondria [<a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/10365442\/\">Study<\/a>] and also enhance their function in the cell. [<a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/25443662\/\">Study<\/a>]\n<p>In short, red light therapy treatments can stimulate the electrons involved in the mitochondria during cellular respiration, and help clear nitric oxide (NO), which is a harmful roadblock to ATP production. <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/20011653\/\">[Study<\/a>Essentially, NO fires up the cellular system of ATP production, and red and NIR light help prevent and reverse this problem. The photons in red and NIR light generate electrons, which help break nitric oxide bonds so hydrogen ions can move through the process more effectively, resulting in greater levels of ATP energy that nourish your cells and body. [<a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/25443662\/\">Study<\/a>]\n<p>That is a general summary of a very complicated microscopic process.

The smaller the lens angle, the more light is concentrated in one spot, but this narrows the area of \u200b\u200bcoverage because the light is focused more centrally. <br \/><strong>30\u00b0<\/strong> angle lenses.
