What Is Red Light Therapy?

Red Light Therapy (RLT), also known as photobiomodulation, exposes the body to low-level wavelengths of red and near-infrared (NIR) light. Unlike ultraviolet rays, these wavelengths safely penetrate the skin to reach the mitochondria — the cell’s energy centers.

At Boca Cryo™, our medical-grade RLT systems deliver targeted wavelengths between 630–850 nm, stimulating cellular energy production (ATP) and promoting regeneration, recovery, and vitality.

How It Works

Red and near-infrared light activate a process called cytochrome c oxidase activation, enhancing mitochondrial efficiency and energy output.

This leads to increased collagen production, improved blood flow, reduced inflammation, and faster tissue repair.

RLT also helps restore oxidative balance and supports healthier cellular function throughout the body.

Research-Backed Benefits

1. Skin Health and Collagen Production – Stimulates fibroblast activity to improve tone, elasticity, and smoothness.
2. Pain Relief and Recovery – Reduces inflammation and muscle soreness by improving microcirculation.
3. Cellular Energy and Performance – Boosts ATP production for better performance and endurance.
4. Cognitive and Mood Support – Enhances cerebral blood flow for improved focus and mood.
5. Anti-Inflammatory and Healing Effects – Accelerates recovery by supporting tissue repair and angiogenesis.

What to Expect During a Session

At Boca Cryo™, sessions are relaxing, warm, and completely non-invasive. You’ll rest comfortably in front of our red-light panel for 10–20 minutes.

The light feels soothing and gentle — not hot or harsh.

Many clients combine RLT with PEMF, Cryotherapy, or EWOT for enhanced recovery and rejuvenation.

Most clients notice visible skin improvements and increased energy after just a few sessions.

Safety and Suitability

Red Light Therapy is non-invasive, drug-free, and completely safe for all skin types.

It is not recommended for individuals with light-sensitive conditions or those taking photosensitizing medications.

All RLT sessions at Boca Cryo™ use FDA-cleared, medical-grade devices calibrated for safe and effective use.

The Bottom Line

Red Light Therapy is one of the most effective, evidence-based treatments for rejuvenation and recovery.

Whether your goal is to improve skin health, reduce inflammation, or accelerate recovery, RLT at Boca Cryo™ delivers results that go more than skin deep — naturally and effectively.
