AURORA Red Light Therapy
Why our Red Light Therapy?
Red light therapy (RLT), also called photobiomodulation (PBM), uses red and near-infrared light. Research looks at how mitochondria, the parts of your cells that make energy, absorb this light, and whether that changes how much ATP they produce, the molecule cells use for energy [de Freitas 2016]. Our pods emit five wavelengths: 633, 660, 810, 850 and 940 nm. See each one on our RLT Wavelengths page.
Recover better.
Training, long days at a desk, travel: it all adds up. Studies in athletes have looked at muscle soreness and recovery between sessions [Ferraresi 2016]. Our clients put it simply: more energy and 12 to 15 minutes of real calm.
Train, then recover.
Sports researchers have studied red and near-infrared light used before or after training, including its link with muscle fatigue [Ferraresi 2016]. That's why we pair it with EMS: train with your coach, then 12 to 15 minutes in the pod.
Come for training, stay for the glow.
Red light is one of the most studied technologies in skin research. In one controlled trial, researchers measured skin feel and collagen density [Wunsch 2014]. Plenty of clients come for training and stay for the glow. And because the session is warm and quiet, many simply use it to switch off.
Back to training.
Whether you're pushing your limits in the gym, preparing for a race or just getting moving again, a regular red light routine fits around your training. 12 to 15 minutes, then straight back to your day.
Who comes to AURORA?
Athletes and weekend warriors who want a recovery routine between sessions. Professionals who want 12 to 15 calm minutes in a busy day. People who look after their skin. Anyone who wants a simple, consistent wellness routine. Red light sessions are gentle and generally well tolerated. If you are pregnant, take medication that makes you sensitive to light, or have a medical condition, check with your doctor first.
How often can you use RLT?
You can come every day, but once a day is plenty. Most regulars settle into two to three sessions a week. Some people prefer to start with shorter sessions and build up gradually. It is important to LISTEN TO YOUR BODY.
Please talk to us should you experience ANY discomfort so we can adjust your sessions to your personal tolerance levels.
