The stress of everyday life takes a toll on our bodies. Even the things we find enjoyable can start to feel stressful. This can start to make us feel sluggish, tired, and “over it.” Essentially, it can be really difficult to show up fully in your life if you’re constantly being bogged down by the stress of daily life. Constant stress can lead to mitochondrial decline. In this state, your mitochondria, the organelles within your cells responsible for producing the energy we use every day called ATP (adenosine triphosphate), begin to work less effectively, reducing your body’s ability to respond to these stresses and the symptoms associated with them. Fortunately, this process is reversible with cutting-edge advanced therapeutic modalities. You don’t have to live anything less than an entirely fulfilling life!

Red light therapy is a simple but effective modality that utilizes low-level wavelengths of infrared and visible spectrum red light. This red light stimulates your cells, prompting your mitochondria to increase the energy (ATP) they are producing and promote healing from within.
The benefits of increased ATP and mitochondrial stimulation go far beyond simply increasing energy levels. Studies show that red light therapy can be useful in treating skin conditions and inflammatory diseases. It can even help reduce chronic pain. Red light therapy is indicated for those experiencing:
