Red light therapy has been used as a natural healing modality going back to the 1970’s. NASA used it originally to keep astronauts healthy while they were in space. A number of leading university medical research centers including Harvard, MIT, Tufts, Wisconsin University & many others have studied the benefits of red light therapy’s mitochondrial healing effects. There are more than 3,000 studies & articles conducted by the National Institute of Health (NIH) that support a variety of use cases & conditions where red light therapy promoted healing effects in humans & animals.Â
