Mental health is one of the most complicated parameters of human well-being. Determining the causal pathways in both the emergence and alleviation of any issues relies quite heavily on the philosophy of science with which one approaches the topic. Yet, it is no surprise, or matter of controversy, that our mental well-being and a healthy […]
A lot of people carry heavy skepticism towards Red Light Therapy panels due to the intuitive idea, that Red light is ‘outside’ and ‘around’ our bodies, rather than something that goes ‘into it’. The reality is that light easily penetrates the body, although some wavelengths from Red Light Therapy Panels better than others. Light, and […]
It takes a quite a few hours of research online to find the info on what actually makes for a good Red light therapy panel product. Even if you decide to spend all this time on it, what you’ll notice is, that there is conflicting information online, and that it can be hard to know […]
What’s the difference between a light mask and a Red Light Therapy panel? The people who know of Red Light Therapy panel often know of it from the light masks that are sold to customers seeking better facial skin. These have their merit and do improve the skin. For a wealth of reasons, however, these […]
One of the most mindblowing facts about light that the rabbit hole of RLT reveals, is that of light’s ability to penetrate into not just the skin, fat, muscle, and organs of the human body – but even its skeletal bone structure. It almost seems impossible that something as seeminngly immaterial as light can affect […]
While it is likely that most people initially get into RLT for the sake of prettier bodies (hair, skin & fitness), one of the, by far, most exciting benefits that it provides is better brain health and cognitive performance. Both the systemic benefits, which you’ll get from receiving the light energy anywhere on the body, […]
Although the inclusion of protective eyewear might lead many to infer the opposite, RLT has in fact been proven to be very beneficial for overall eye health. As with basically all applications of RLT, there are both general improvements to be had and particular ailments that it can alleviate. Essentially, it helps keep your eyes […]
Systemic effects of RLT One of the downsides of RLT, one might think, is that you need a massive set of panels to shine the light on the entirety of your body. Otherwise, you would have to move the device around and do multiple sessions, just to treat the whole body ‘once’. Furthermore, skeptics typically […]
What are the benefits of contact-use? There are two ways to use a RLT-panel. The most common for ‘normal’ use, which is to place the device at a certain distance from the body; and the most common for clinical use, which is to hold the device in direct contact with the body. Clinicians/scientists prefer contact […]
“So it’s like one of those ‘bright lamps’ people use in the morning?” Many people mistake red light therapy for bright light therapy (or even for UV-lamps). Red light therapy is neither, although it is preferably used in the mornings and although it has the same effect on seasonal affective disorder (SAD), which is also […]
While skin and hair are the most visible benefits of RLT, the benefits for physical performance are perhaps the easiest to feel. Scientifically, its effect is described as: improved maximum physical performance, improved recovery, reduced oxidative stress, reduced lactation, and reduced pain.In slightly more ‘real world’ terms: increased muscle mass, increased strength, better endurance, decreased […]
The only benefit of RLT that might rival skincare in its obvious visibility, is that of improved hair health. The very first scientific discovery of modern light therapy was in fact, when Endre Mestre ‘accidentally’ found it incredibly effective at regrowing hair while trying to test its potential capability for reducing tumors in the 60’s. […]
RLT is primarily known for its well-proven benefits for the skin. Just like the most obvious effect of UV-light on the body are the ones that we can see on the skin (tanning and aging), the most obvious benefit of red and near-infrared light is improved skin. The list of skin-benefits is long: rejuvenation, reduction […]
Light might seem inconsequential and immaterial to most of us, but light is in fact ‘just’ the visible part of the electromagnetic radiation that powers all organic life on earth. Beyond the intuitive beauty of a sunset, the red and near-infrared wavelengths of light that are found at sunset and sunrise have unique capabilities of […]
As our previous post states: HELIO gives you the best red light therapy panels in the industry, at what seem like prices that are too good to be true (comparatively, at least). Many companies, including our competitors, might make this claim however, so to prove it to you we have conducted a short european red […]
The healing benefits of particular types of light is no new discovery. Ancient Egyptians, Persians, Romans, and Chinese all recognized the power of light millennia ago. Modern science caught up in the 1960’s, when doctor Endre Mester proved its effects on hair growth and wound healing, and since then, 7000+ studies have been undertaken showing […]
“So is it’s like one of those ‘bright lamps’ people use in the morning?” Many people mistake red light therapy for bright light therapy (or even for UV-lamps). Red light therapy is neither, although it is preferably used in the mornings and although it carries a similar effect on seasonal affective disorder (SAD), which is […]
During our production process, we went into great detail to fashion the best possible thank-you cards we possibly could. Thick recycled paper, logo-embossing, meticulous design, and -wording took us a lot of time and effort, which is why it felt like a disaster, once we saw the printing factory had introduced quite a few embarrassing […]
Dearest customer, Thank you for taking the time to explore our site. Since you have arrived at our blog-page, we assume that you must be one of the more thorough customers out there. We would also assume, that you will spend a lot of time doing research on different panels, their performance and their price […]
