Different conditions require different treatment processes. As technology and applications across the medical horizon advance rapidly, innovative treatments increasingly find their way toward broader societal adoption, and being tested in the broader consensus on health issues. Red light therapy, also known as photobiomodulation, has emerged over the past decade as an increasingly viable solution for its wide range of health benefits.
Many individuals struggle with neurological conditions which negatively impact their lives. Using red light therapy has the potential to integrate as a low intensity, gentle approach to treatment for neurological conditions. But what does red light therapy do, fundamentally, and how does it work? Is the treatment process safe? In this blog, ROJO Light Therapy answers your questions, and investigates how its application can assist.
Red light therapy involves the administration of low levels of red light (620 to 750 nanometers) or near-infrared light, which increases overall energy production in the body’s cells to unleash a multitude of health benefits. The cells contain various components which are stimulated by the light’s particular wavelengths.
A neurological condition broadly categorises as a condition with the capacity to affect the brain, and the nerves inside the human body and spinal cord. These conditions affect hundreds of millions of people all over the world - the stroke being a prime example, claiming over 6 million lives annually. With continual peer-reviewed research, red light therapy has found footing in numerous diseases afflicting the central nervous system, exciting processes of cell proliferation, cell metabolism and other protective mechanisms depending on the duration and dosage. Stimulating the body’s cells, it also targets neurons - essential for better brain health, as it enhances mitochondrial function and other cellular pathways. Furthermore, it stimulates neurogenesis, or the generation of new brain cells, as the physiological counterpart to the degenerative nature of neurological diseases.
Parkinson’s Disease is a neurodegenerative disorder which mainly affects one’s mobility. However, it also negatively impacts mental health, sleep, pain and other health related issues. The likelihood of developing dementia heightens, when it comes to Parkinson’s Disease. Although there is no proper cure for the condition, red light therapy helps reduce the motor and non-motor symptoms through past trials.
Dementia is a broader term used to describe the overall symptoms associated with loss of memory, language, problem-solving and other cognitive abilities which affects our capacity to perform everyday activities. Specifically, Alzheimer’s Disease is a type of dementia that involves the shrinking of the brain and brain cells. Over time, this disease worsens and requires treatment and care as support. Although there is no cure for dementia, with the help of supporting medications and red light therapy sessions, those suffering from its symptoms have the potential to benefit from improved cognitive function.
Are you thinking about incorporating red light therapy into your life? Before committing to an investment, please consult an expert, or consider its potential risks to your health to guarantee a safe and pleasurable experience. All individuals are unique and respond differently to red light therapy, and as such is recommended to consult with a health professional before engaging in regular practice. It is crucial to note that if you are already predisposed to health issues and other concerns, red light therapy may be unsuitable for your needs.
Fundamentally, though a wealth of research over the recent decade has come to exalt validate red light therapy in broader culture, further research continues as a necessity before being concluded as a treatment with definitive clinical endorsement. Nonetheless, past studies and experiences show that red light therapy has benefited many people and delivered a wide variety of health advantages.
