About Red Light Therapy
Red Light Therapy is a wellness modality that has been smashing into the world of professional athletes, the US military and doctors in the know.
Over 6,000 clinical trials suggest promising results across multiple biomarkers in the body:
Skincare research suggests the ability to improve conditions such as wrinkles, redness, acne, scars, shingles, eczema and other skin issues.
Red Light Therapy Beds present extraordinary positive effects to help muscle tissue and other parts of the human body heal. It works by exposing the body to low levels of red or near-infrared light to parts of the body or the whole body. Studies suggest athletes will increase single rep max, total reps prior to failure and total reps in a given time. That translates to improved speed, strength, endurance and it has been shown to protect the athlete against mechanical damage that happens during intense training and competition.
Red Light Therapy has pain-relieving benefits in that it deadens nerve pain.
Benefits of Red Light Therapy
01 Feel Better
Wellness Benefits: Researchers call the benefits of photobiomodulation “too good to be true.” A reduction in pain and inflammation associated with various autoimmune conditions, such as neuropathy, arthritis, and fibromyalgia, as well as injuries and surgeries, presents the first level of benefit for individuals who report feeling better with full-body LED Light Therapy.
Regents Center’s owner, John Molenhouer, and his C-level clients utilize his ATP LED therapy beds to recharge their batteries midday, which is an extraordinary benefit of full-body LED Light Therapy. How many who hit the wall midday could use a tool to rejuvenate the body and mind? Imagine having a light therapy bed available to your employees.
The ARRC LED ATP, ATP RF, and Elysium LED Light Therapy beds precisely meter out the optimum dose of light and frequencies serving the body with the perfect amount of energy to penetrate deep into the muscles and joints without over-delivering.
02 Think Better
Researchers and practitioners worldwide recognize that LED Light Therapy, particularly near-infrared light, can penetrate the brain and provide benefits. The benefits that LED Light Therapy presents, including restoring nerve cell function and rebuilding damaged nerves (Neurogenesis), combined with the infusion of energy into the mitochondria, improved circulation, and reduced inflammation throughout the brain, are substantial. Add the correct pulse, and researchers are showing that frequencies can break apart the amyloid plaques that precede Alzheimer’s Disease.
Dr. Lew Lim of Vielight has conducted remarkable research using 810nm near-infrared LED Light to aid patients with Alzheimer’s, Dementia, and TBI in their recovery. His telling statement includes being able to interview patients who were unable to speak.
Full Body LED Light Therapy creates a systemic benefit to “nearly every tissue, organ, and system in the body”. As Dr. Mercola suggested in his interviews, near-infrared light will be an extraordinary mechanism to fight the “tsunami of Alzheimer’s and Dementia” that will plague the US as baby boomers move into their later years.
03 Perform Better
The ARRC LED ATP Full-Body LED Light Therapy system is utilized by the NCAA, the NFL, Premier Soccer, UFC Athletes, the US Military, and numerous individuals to aid in accelerating recovery from injury and competition, as well as to enhance performance before competition.
Full Body LED Light Therapy creates a systemic reduction in inflammation, reducing pain and improving recovery time. Peer-reviewed research shows that LED Light Therapy in the right wavelengths and dose can help athletes in 4 powerful ways:
1- Increase single rep max (strength)
2-Increase total reps prior to failure (endurance)
3-Increase total reps in a given time (speed)
4- Protect the body against the mechanical damage that happens during competition.
If doctors who conduct research for the US Military recommend the ARRC LED ATP system, we believe you’ll also appreciate the ATP system.
04 Look Better
“I’ve been working with LED Light Therapy since 2007 as a tool in the aesthetics industry to help reduce wrinkles. What I heard from our facial panel system owners is what propelled me to start the ARRC LED. The number one comment was “Do you know what this machine is doing now?” This is what owners would tell me that went above and beyond the typical comments like ‘My skin has never looked better,’ ‘My Eyelashes look like they did in high school,’ ‘My clients are loving what this is doing for their hair’ and ‘This was the only thing to get rid of adult acne’ They bought these expensive facial panels to help their client’s skin but used them on other parts of the body, and it worked for all kinds of ailments.
That is when I set out to build a full-body LED Light Therapy Bed.”
Mike McIntyre,
CEO ARRC LED.
Cellular Benefits of Red Light Therapy
LED Red Light Therapy affects the bioenergetic matrix that builds into cells. The massive list of positive benefits for the cells are then transmitted down into the tissues, organs and systems of the body.
Red light can penetrate the skin to a depth of 1 – 3 mm, and it works by acting on the “power plant” in your body’s cells called mitochondria to produce more energy called Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP). More specifically, cells absorb light photons, stimulating them to do their job more efficiently with more energy, such as repairing skin, boosting new cell growth, and enhancing skin rejuvenation.
Research has shown that this stimulation has the potential of encouraging cells to produce more collagen and elastin, adding volume to the skin, as well as extra firming and toning. Red light penetrates the bottom of the dermis down to the fatty layer, making it beneficial as a natural anti-inflammatory. Research studies have shown red light gets to the epidermal layer and begins to heat the skin’s dermis. Аt higher temperatures, new collagen and elastin are naturally produced by our body, delivering powerful therapeutic benefits to living tissue. Studies suggest that skin cells can grow 150 – 200 percent faster when exposed to specific light wavelengths.
Research suggests that Red Light Therapy has potential benefits in:
- Increase circulation and nutrient transfer
- Detoxify waste and free radicals
- Present an analgesic benefit for nerve cells
- Reduce inflammation the root cause of most autoimmune diseases
- Stimulating collagen production
- Increasing fibroblast production
- Increasing blood circulation to the tissue.

Red Light Therapy for Face
Red Light Therapy research is revealing encouraging results for the treatment of acne. Sebaceous glands produce sebum, which clogs the pores and causes acne. Although sunlight may help calm overactive glands, many people have an issue with sunlight exposure because it comes with exposure to ultraviolet and UVB rays which can cause other skin issues over time.
Research suggests Red Light Therapy, alone or combined with other light treatments, is an effective treatment for acne vulgaris as light penetrates the skin and has the potential to reduce inflammation and irritation without exposure to ultraviolet and UVB rays, while also positively affecting sebum production.
Some of the possible effects of Red Light Therapy are:
- Reducing wrinkles, fine lines, and age spots
- Improvement of facial texture
- Improvement of acne
Red Light Therapy for Skin
Studies indicate that RLT may improve skin rejuvenation, and improve the feel and complexion of the skin. The application of Red Light Therapy provides a safe, non-ablative, non-thermal treatment. This therapy may have the potential to extend the spectrum of anti-aging treatment options available to patients looking for mild and pleasant light-only skin rejuvenation.
Red Light Therapy researches suggest optimistic results regarding some common skin conditions, including:
- Wound healing
- Stretch marks
- Psoriasis
- Rosacea and eczema
- Scars
- Sun-damaged skin
- Hair loss in people with androgenic alopecia
Red Light Therapy for Back Pain
Red light therapy has been shown in research to have an analgesic effect on nerve fibers. Green light has been shown to add an extra pain pathway not presented with Red/Nearinfrared. Together, multiwave photobiomodulation helps to reduce pain in the body.
Studies suggest that Red Light Therapy can promote faster back pain healing by penetrating deep into the skin and improving blood circulation in the body. When red light reaches the cells, mitochondria absorb it, increasing the cell’s metabolism and stimulating muscle, bone, skin, and subcutaneous tissue healing. Improving the metabolism of the cells will increase blood flow, and this will help bring oxygenated blood and nutrients to the all body. Increased blood flow means faster waste drainage. Photobiomodulation devices such as the RLT beds are considered a good choice for patients seeking non-invasive and pain-free therapy for their back pain.
Red Light Therapy for Weight Loss
Since the last decade, Red Light Therapy has been investigated as a pain-free wellness modality for weight loss, cellulite reduction, and blood lipid profile improvement. Researchers suggest that RLT promotes the photoactivation of cytochrome c oxidase in hypertrophic adipocytes. That reaction then results in the formation of transitory pores within the adipocytes’ membrane. Newly formed pores release intracellular lipids, which are further metabolized by the body.
The underlying mechanism of action for such effects still seems unclear, and more studies are needed to understand how RLT can work to reduce weight. Red light therapy alone will not reduce weight in the body however. Weight loss is a function of a complete protocol where exercise and vibration push the lipids out of the cells after permeability is increased.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are there any side effects associated with red light therapy?
RLT is generally considered safe and virtually free of adverse effects, particularly with short-term use. However, one should always consult a healthcare professional if any concerns arise.
How often should I use a red light therapy bed?
The recommended frequency of use will vary based on individual needs. Most patients participate in 10- to 20-minute sessions, three to five times a week, to address common concerns such as skin health, pain management, anti-aging benefits, and more. More complex applications may require extended sessions or more frequent use, as directed by a healthcare professional.
What is the difference between a photobiomodulation bed and a red light therapy bed?
Red light therapy is a type of photobiomodulation, also known as PBM. PBM is the broader term that could also refer to white light therapy, green light therapy, etc. A whole-body photobiomodulation bed is capable of more than just red light therapy, and may include other lights, frequencies, or electromagnetic features in addition to light therapy.
How is the AARC LED red light therapy bed more effective than competitors?
ARRC LED devices expand traditional red light therapy methods to include six wavelengths rather than the usual three. Additionally, they expand the target from one chromophore to three, which increases the efficacy of the photobiomodulation system.
Will a red light therapy full-body machine leave a tan?
No. Tanning beds use ultraviolet light, which a red light therapy bed does not emit.
