Does Red Light Therapy Work?

7. Technique

There are various techniques for red light therapy treatments. It can be administered as either a continuous wave or pulsing light. A single treatment typically lasts 30 to 60 seconds, and multiple treatments may be needed depending on the condition. One of the reasons red light therapy is not widely accepted is that it is ineffective unless performed using the right parameters. If the dose is too high or too low, the treatment session is too long or short a time, or there are too many or not enough repetitions, it produces inhibitory effects.
