What is red light therapy?

Red light therapy uses low levels of red light frequencies to target mitochondria (the powerhouse of your cells) to reduce inflammation throughout the body. This non-invasive treatment can also improve the health and appearance of your skin by reducing wrinkles and redness and preventing acne breakouts.

Ethos Wellness Center features two red light bays that measure six feet tall and two feet wide. They emit a therapeutic light spectrum that ranges from 630nm (288pcs), 660nm (288pcs), 810nm (288pcs), and 830nm (288pcs) with an irradiance of 95mW/cm2 at 6 inches.

These specifications allow Dr. Palmeri to treat a 6-inch treatment area in just five minutes so you can get back to your usual activities quickly.

Which conditions can red light therapy treat?

The red light therapy technologies available at Ethos Wellness Center can treat several skin conditions, including acne, psoriasis, warts, and skin cancer. Treatment stimulates the growth of new collagen, an essential protein needed for healthy, youthful-looking skin.

Red light therapy can also provide benefits that support your overall physical health. Dr. Palmeri can recommend red light therapy to:

Help wounds heal more efficiently
Optimize cellular function
Boost athletic performance
Strengthen cardiovascular health
Enhance immunity

After a comprehensive health exam, Dr. Palmeri discusses your options for red light therapy and other holistic treatments that support long-term health.

What can I expect during red light therapy?

During your red light therapy session at Ethos Wellness Center, you stand in front of the red light panels.

The panels distribute red light into the treatment area to stimulate better blood circulation and reduce inflammation. The time you spend under the red lights depends on the condition you’re treating.

You can return to your usual activities without downtime after you complete your session. Dr. Palmeri discusses how soon you should schedule additional red light therapy sessions to achieve your goals.

The results of red light therapy may be noticeable within a month of your first treatment. However, some conditions may require several months before you experience the full benefit of your therapy.
