At Humanergetics, we have been researching the benefits of full body photobiomodulation, also known as infrared light therapy since 2018. This innovative therapy uses infrared light to stimulate and energize cells in the body, leading to a range of potential benefits. While we cannot make any health claims, we are excited to share some of the potential benefits of full body photobiomodulation, as well as some referenced case studies that support its use.
The use of light therapy for healing purposes dates back to ancient times. The Egyptians used sunlight to help a range of conditions, while the Greeks and Romans used colored light to assist a variety of ailments. In the 20th century, the development of technology allowed for the creation of devices that could generate controlled light therapy for recovery. Infrared light therapy has since been used to help a range of conditions, including pain relief, improved circulation, and skin rejuvenation.
Near-infrared light therapy: This type uses wavelengths between 700 and 1200 nm and is commonly used for skin rejuvenation, pain relief, and improved circulation.
Mid-infrared light therapy: This type uses wavelengths between 1200 and 3000 nm and is commonly used for pain relief, improved circulation, and skin rejuvenation.
Far-infrared light therapy: This type of therapy uses wavelengths between 3000 and 10,000 nm and is commonly used for pain relief, improved circulation, and skin rejuvenation.
Several studies published in the Journal of Clinical and Aesthetic Dermatology found that infrared light was effective in improving skin texture and reducing fine lines and wrinkles in individuals with aging skin. Some other studies published in the Journal of Athletic Training found that infrared light was effective in reducing muscle soreness and improving recovery in athletes. In the Journal of Alternative and Complementary Medicine they found that infrared light was effective in reducing pain and improving function in individuals with brain anomalies. More studies published in the Journal of Cosmetic and Laser Therapy found that infrared light was effective in reducing cellulite.
Overall, while more research is needed to fully understand the potential benefits of full body photobiomodulation, these referenced case studies suggest that it may be an effective option for a range of conditions. As always, it is important to consult with a professional healthcare provider before using any type of therapy, particularly if you have any underlying health conditions. With its long history and potential benefits, we believe full body photobiomodulation may be promising option for those looking to enhance their overall health and wellbeing.
