Red Light Therapy in Los Angeles
CEO2 Health offers professional Red Light Therapy sessions at our Hollywood location, serving LA and Southern California. Our non-invasive, therapeutic treatment uses specific wavelengths of red light to improve skin health, reduce pain and inflammation, and enhance overall well-being.
What Is Red Light Therapy?
Red Light Therapy, also known as photobiomodulation and low level light therapy, uses red low-level wavelengths of light for a variety of health and wellness benefits. Red light is considered “low level” because it works at an energy density that’s low compared to other forms of laser therapies.
In the early 1990s, Red Light Therapy was used by scientists to help grow plants in space. They found that the intense light from red LEDs promoted the growth and photosynthesis of plant cells.
Red light was then studied for its ability to increase energy inside human cells. The human body needs to make ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) cellular energy to function and survive. This occurs naturally when our bodies are exposed to natural sunlight. Red and near infrared wavelengths of natural light stimulate the mitochondria in our cells. The mitochondria turn the light into usable energy for our bodies through the process of cellular respiration.

How Red Light Therapy Works?
Absorption of
Light Energy
Red light therapy emits red, low-level wavelengths of light, which are believed to be absorbed by skin cells. This absorption can stimulate energy production and other metabolic processes in the cells.
Increased Cellular
Function
The absorbed light energy stimulates the mitochondria to produce more ATP (adenosine triphosphate), which is the main source of energy for cells.
Multitude
of Benefits
The increased energy production helps to improve cellular function resulting in various benefits for the body, such as improved skin health, reduced pain and inflammation, improved muscle recovery, and increased collagen production.

Health Benefits of Red Light Therapy
Wound Healing:
RLT may accelerate tissue repair and help wounds heal more quickly.
Skin Health:
It’s often used for improving skin complexion, reducing wrinkles, and combating acne.
Hair Growth:
Some studies suggest RLT might help in treating certain types of hair loss.
Pain and Inflammation:
RLT can reduce inflammation and pain in various conditions, such as muscle pain, joint pain, or arthritis.
Muscle Recovery:
Athletes sometimes use RLT to aid recovery after exercise, as it might help reduce muscle soreness.
Improved Circulation:
It may help increase the production of nitric oxide, a compound that expands blood vessels and improves circulation.
Immune System Support:
Red light therapy may help support the body’s natural immune response by promoting healthy cellular activity and reducing oxidative stress. Improved circulation and cellular function can contribute to overall wellness and recovery.
Stress and Relaxation Support
Many individuals find red light therapy calming and relaxing due to the gentle warmth and soothing treatment environment. Regular sessions may help support relaxation, reduce physical tension, and promote a greater sense of well-being.
Mental Acuity:
