Why Blood Pressure Safety Matters
People with hypertension are often cautious about new wellness therapies. Unlike heat-based treatments, red light therapy does not significantly raise core body temperature.

Current evidence indicates:
- Red light therapy does não spike blood pressure

Any blood pressure changes are usually mild and temporary.
Who Should Be Cautious
Extra caution is recommended for:
- Individuals with unstable blood pressure
- Those on multiple cardiovascular medications
- Patients with advanced cardiovascular disease
Consulting a healthcare provider is advised in these cases.
