빨간불 치료 (RLT) 염증을 줄이는 인기 있는 도구가 되었습니다., 치유를 지원, 피부 건강 개선. 그러나 현재 유방암을 앓고 있거나 과거력이 있는 사람들에게는 다음과 같은 질문이 제기됩니다.: 안전한가요??
레드라이트 테라피란??
적색 광선 요법은 적색의 특정 파장을 사용합니다. (일반적으로 630~660nm) 그리고 근적외선 (800–850nm) 자극하다 세포 에너지 생산 (ATP), 줄이다 산화 스트레스, 그리고 조직 복구 촉진. It’s widely used in skincare, 통증 관리, and post-surgery recovery.
Concerns with Cancer and Light Stimulation
The core concern is that red light therapy stimulates cellular activity — and in the context of cancer, 특히 hormone-sensitive types like some forms of breast cancer, this raises caution. While RLT doesn’t use harmful UV rays and is non-ionizing, its ability to boost cell function makes many oncologists recommend avoiding direct application over known or suspected tumors.
연구 결과는 무엇을 말합니까??
- There is no strong evidence that red light therapy causes cancer.
- 일부 animal and lab studies show red light may support immune function or reduce treatment side effects.
- 하지만, human clinical research on RLT in active cancer patients is limited.
을 위한 breast cancer survivors, red light therapy may help with:
- Scar healing 수술 후
- Lymphedema management (swelling due to lymph node removal)
- Fatigue and muscle pain caused by chemotherapy or radiation
But always under medical supervision.
안전 지침
- Do not apply red light directly over a tumor or affected breast without doctor approval
- Avoid RLT if you are undergoing active cancer treatment, unless supervised
- Breast cancer survivors can consider RLT for non-cancerous areas (예를 들어, 얼굴, 관절, 흉터), but still should consult their oncologist
최종 생각
Red light therapy is generally safe for healthy individuals, but for those with current or past breast cancer, caution is essential. Always consult your oncologist or medical team before using red light therapy — especially over the chest area.
