Is red light therapy real? It always sounds like magical wishful thinking to me, but I'm seeing more and more references to it in places that look legit.

- longtimelistnr 4y agoYes! I’ll share some resources when I get home. Specific wavelengths of red and infrared light can penetrate the skin and accelerate recovery with respect to dosage and area targeted. To consult on this project for example, we spoke to one of our our school’s athletic trainers who showed us a light therapy device the school already owns.
