Red Light Therapy

A red light therapy session delivering therapeutic red and near-infrared wavelengths to the body. The light penetrates skin and underlying tissue to interact with mitochondria, supporting cellular energy production, collagen synthesis, and localised recovery. The treatment is non-invasive, comfortable, and requires no downtime.

The red light therapy session at Cryospa Clinics exposes the body to therapeutic wavelengths of red and near-infrared light. Red light in the 630 to 660 nanometre range targets the upper layers of skin, stimulating fibroblast activity and collagen production. Near-infrared wavelengths at 810 to 850 nanometres reach deeper into muscle, tendon, and joint tissue. At the cellular level, these photons are absorbed by cytochrome c oxidase within the mitochondria, boosting adenosine triphosphate production and reducing oxidative stress. This photobiomodulation cascade may support tissue repair, lower localised inflammation, and improve skin tone and texture over time. The process is entirely passive — clients simply position themselves near the panels and relax. Regular red light therapy users commonly notice improvements in skin clarity and firmness, reduced post-exercise soreness in treated areas, and faster resolution of minor blemishes. The therapy does not emit ultraviolet wavelengths, so there is no risk of tanning, sunburn, or UV-related skin damage. At Cryospa Clinics, red light therapy pairs well with the infrared sauna for a combined cellular support and relaxation protocol. Sauna warmth opens blood vessels and increases circulation, while red light delivers targeted energy to cells already primed by improved blood flow. This stacking approach is popular among clients building a regular wellness routine. The session requires minimal preparation beyond removing lotions or sunscreen from treatment areas so the light reaches the skin without obstruction. Protective eye shields are provided. At $50 per session, red light therapy sits at an accessible price point with ten-packs available for regular visitors.
