LED Light Therapy is a relative new-comer in the therapy world. Starting in the early 1990’s, Navy Seals used these lights to help increase wound healing time. Since then the study of LED Therapy has shown efficacy in everything from reducing wrinkles and fine lines to help promote sleep.

Originally developed by NASA for increasing plant growth, this light therapy has come a long way. LED Light therapy is a light emitting diode therapy (LED) that uses varying wave lengths and colors for different purposes. Because they do not contain ultraviolet rays, they are safe for regular use. LED lights which are readily absorbed by the skin, are simple, and generally inexpensive with little to no risk involved. Typically, therapy will be cumulative, meaning that people experience results with use over time.

LED light therapy has many helpful applications. Our LED light at STANDwellness has the ability to use one single color at a time or to combine therapies. Sessions generally last for 30 minutes.

It should be noted here that LED light therapy is not recommended for those on Accutane.
