LIGHT THERAPY &
​MUSCLE RECOVERY

A significant number of independent clinical research has shown light therapy has a positive impact on recovery and performance.  For this reason a growing number active people from elite athletes to casual exercisers are incorporating this therapy into their regimen.  Many see longer, stronger workouts as a result, all the while feeling more energy and less soreness.

So what mechanisms create this beneficial reaction?  Scientists suggest it is the increased antioxidants, heat proteins, improved circulation, and oxygen/nutrient flow that may be the reason so many studies show incredible effects.  Eliminating oxidative stress is important because it is associated with muscle fatigue, plus antioxidants cause heightened production of heat shock proteins which protect cells from stress and early cell death!

In addition, studies show light therapy causes increased circulation, resulting in more oxygen & nutrients being delivered to muscle tissue while ridding the tissue of toxic byproducts.
