What Happens Inside Your Body During Red Light Therapy?
Red light therapy works by stimulating mitochondria inside your cells through a process called photobiomodulation. When red and near-infrared light interact with cytochrome c oxidase in the mitochondrial respiratory chain, ATP energy production increases and cellular repair pathways are activated. This article explains the science behind red light therapy, from mitochondrial energy production to inflammation reduction and tissue repair.
