What is Red and Infrared Light Therapy?

At Hopkins Health in Fernandina Beach, we’re passionate about providing advanced, non-invasive solutions that help our patients recover naturally and live pain-free.

One of the most innovative therapies we’ve introduced to our community is red and infrared light therapy using the industry-leading PlatinumLED Therapy Lights.

What Is Red and Infrared Light Therapy?

Red light therapy (RLT) and near-infrared light therapy (NIR) are non-invasive treatments that use specific wavelengths of light to stimulate the body’s natural healing processes.

Known in clinical research as photobiomodulation, this therapy energizes your cells, reduces inflammation, and promotes tissue repair without medication or surgery.

How It Works: The Science Behind the Light

Red light (wavelengths around 630–660 nm) penetrates the surface layers of your skin, stimulating collagen production and cellular energy.

Infrared light (wavelengths around 810–850 nm and higher) reaches deeper tissues, muscles, and even joints, improving circulation and reducing inflammation.

Together, they help restore cellular health from the inside out by increasing ATP (adenosine triphosphate) — the body’s natural energy currency.

Who Can Benefit from Red and Infrared Light Therapy?

At Hopkins Health, we’ve seen incredible results using light therapy for a wide range of conditions.

While results vary, patients often report improvement in symptoms such as:

• Chronic neck and back pain

• Joint and muscle stiffness

• Peripheral neuropathy (including diabetic neuropathy)

• Sciatica and disc-related pain

• Arthritis and inflammation

• Skin conditions such as acne, scars, and wrinkles

• Slow-healing wounds and post-surgical recovery

• Fatigue, mood, and sleep disturbances

Patient Success Story: Natural Relief Through Light

One of our patients, a retired teacher from Fernandina Beach, had been struggling with chronic knee and back pain that made daily movement difficult.

After several weeks of consistent red and infrared light therapy sessions at Hopkins Health — combined with gentle decompression and home care — she reported less stiffness, improved sleep,and a noticeable boost in her energy levels. Within two months, she was walking the beach again without pain.

Why We Chose PlatinumLED Therapy Lights

When it comes to delivering consistent and clinically effective light therapy, not all devices are created equal.

We chose PlatinumLED Therapy Lights because of their superior engineering, high irradiance output, and proven results.

The Benefits You Can Expect

Whether you’re dealing with chronic pain, inflammation, or fatigue, red and infrared light therapy offers a natural way to support healing.

Here are just some of the clinically backed benefits:

• Enhanced circulation and oxygen delivery

• Reduced inflammation and joint pain

• Improved muscle recovery and tissue repair

• Boosted collagen production and skin tone

• Relief from neuropathy-related symptoms

• Faster healing and cell regeneration

• Better sleep quality and energy balance

How We Integrate Light Therapy at Hopkins Health

At Hopkins Health, red and infrared light therapy is often used as part of an integrated plan that includes non-surgical spinal decompression, neuropathy treatment, and home-based care protocols.

This combination allows our patients to heal naturally and maintain long-lasting relief — without drugs, injections, or surgery.

PlatinumLED vs. Generic Light Therapy Devices

Many inexpensive red light devices lack sufficient power or the correct wavelength balance, limiting their therapeutic value.

PlatinumLED’s BioMax series, on the other hand, offers professional-grade results, greater depth of penetration, and scientifically verified wavelengths — all essential for achieving measurable results.

Safety and Comfort

PlatinumLED devices are designed with safety in mind. With proper eye protection and adherence to treatment guidelines,

red and infrared light therapy is extremely safe, painless, and relaxing. Most patients describe the sensation as gentle warmth and often feel rejuvenated immediately afterward.
