Hva NM er best for rødlysterapi?

Rødt lys terapi (RLT) typically works within the visible red and near-infrared (NIR) spekter av lys, measured in nanometer (nm).
Disse bølgelengdene trenger inn i huden på forskjellige dyp og utløser ulike biologiske effekter.

1️⃣ Red Light Range: 620–700 nm

• Common therapeutic wavelengths: 630 nm og 660 nm
• Inntrengningsdybde: Opp til 5–10 mm (reaches skin and shallow tissues)
• Best for:
  • Hudforyngelse
  • Collagen stimulation
  • Reduserer fine linjer og rynker
  • Healing superficial wounds or scars
  • Reducing inflammation on the skin’s surface

🔬 Hvorfor det fungerer:
På dette området, light is absorbed by cytochrome c oxidase in your cells’ mitochondria, boosting ATP (energi) produksjon and accelerating cell repair.

2️⃣ Near-Infrared (NIR) Spekter: 800–900 nm

• Common therapeutic wavelengths: 810 nm, 830 nm, 850 nm, 880 nm
• Inntrengningsdybde: Opp til 30–40 mm (reaches muscles, ledd, og til og med bein)
• Best for:
  • Muscle recovery and performance
  • Joint and deep tissue pain relief
  • Nerve regeneration
  • Improving circulation and reducing inflammation

🔬 Hvorfor det fungerer:
NIR light penetrates deeper, improving blood flow and tissue oxygenation, supporting healing from the inside out.

3️⃣ Combined Red + NIR Therapy (Dual Spectrum)

Many advanced systems (like MERICAN red light beds) use a combination of 660 nm + 850 nm LEDs — the most studied and clinically effective pair.

✅ 660 nm (rød): boosts skin health and surface healing
✅ 850 nm (nær-infrarød): targets deeper tissues and muscles

Sammen, they provide comprehensive whole-body benefits, from skin rejuvenation to muscle recovery and inflammation reduction.

4️⃣ Summary Table

✅ In Short

De best wavelengths for red light therapy are 660 nm og 850 nm, often used together for maximum skin and body benefits.
