The Benefits of Red Light Therapy
1:59:23 - 2:03:58 (04:35)
Red light therapy has been shown to have many benefits for the skin, and many commercially available red light panels combine red light and near infrared light. A study found that red light of 670 nanometers and near infrared light of 790 nanometers were effective and could be complimentary.

Summary
A study found that red light at 670 nanometers and near infrared light at 790 nanometers can be complementary and effective for therapy. Most commercially available red light panels combine both wavelengths for skin illumination, and eye protectors are designed to shield out all red light.
