If you're struggling with joint or muscle pain, you've probably tried lots of different things to help yourself feel better - but many people find that the traditional way of dealing with pain (tablets) doesn't suit them, either because of the medication's side effects, or, more and more commonly, because it doesn't really work for them.
When joint pain gets bad enough, surgery is often suggested, but long term studies around surgery for joint pain shows that the extended prognosis (how you feel years later) can often be little better than how you would have felt without the surgery. Studies have shown that many people who have knee surgery regret it later.
So science has needed to look for new ways to deal with muscle and joint pain.
STRUGGLING WITH MUSCULOSKELETAL PAIN? LED LIGHT THERAPY CAN HELP!
Light is made of a range of different colours, like blue, red and green, that travel on different wavelengths. Some light, called near infrared light, doesn't have a colour at all, and is at the far end of the wavelength spectrum.
Different wavelengths penetrate our skin to different depth. For instance, blue light barely penetrates the upper layer of the skin, red light travels deeper, and near infrared travels all the way through the skin to the tissues below.
Scientists have started to discover that red light and near infrared light- at the right wavelengths - can help with musculoskeletal pain.
The red light and near infrared light from our LED Phototherapy device is absorbed by the body's cells, specifically the mitochondria in the cells. This stimulates energy production, as well as increasing microcirculation and decreasing arthritic and joint pain, muscle spasm and muscle and joint stiffness, thanks to its superior ability to decrease inflammation within the tissues.
You can read more about red light and near infrared light for pain relief on the PubMed website.
RED LIGHT AND NEAR INFRARED LIGHT CAN HELP WITH PAIN
When it comes to dealing with pain, we recommend initial treatment using RAPID NeuroFascial Reset - an innovative manual therapy - with Greg at LED By Light's sister company, State 11.
Where clinically suitable, Greg may add LED Phototherapy to the treatment at State 11 for no extra charge, following a RAPID treatment.
If you would to have stand-alone LED Phototherapy for your pain, you can buy a single treatment or a package of 3 or 12 treatments (packages are sold at a discounted price).
