LED light therapy is also known as photobiomodulation where light can produce cellular changes in the body. Photons of light stimulate the release of nitric oxide, which is the body’s natural vasodilator. This greatly increases circulation in the local treatment area. Blood and lymphatic flow are increased to nerves and other tissues, improving tissue oxygenation and removal of toxic wastes. This stimulates many cellular processes that accelerate healing and decreases pain. It has a high level of safety, no known negative side effects, is easy to administer, and is non-invasive.
