Light restores because it works on a cellular level to stimulate and accelerate the human body’s natural healing processes. This alone unlocks a cascade of positive benefits, outcomes, and capacities that were waiting under the surface.
- Light medicine is non-invasive, drug-free, and backed by science
- RLT targets mitochondria to activate cellular energy production
- Benefits include reduced pain, inflammation, better skin, mood improvement, and more
- Not all RLT systems actually achieve cellular regeneration
- RLT sessions should be daily or at least 1-2x per week for optimal absorption
- Targeted RLT or laser therapy is best for pain and recovery
- Work only with clinically-validated systems
Here’s Why You Should Care:
- Providers seeking non-invasive modalities to achieve better or faster patient outcomes should consider light medicine as a cash-flow service.
- Healers, biohackers, athletes, and wellness-minded individuals who want to own their wellness can seek out the right providers or bring home clinically validated solutions.
Photobiomodulation: Is It Really Fringe Medicine?
Light medicine has some old baggage that means many people and providers view it as a fringe or alternative intervention. It’s favored by those who seek natural, non-invasive treatment solutions, which appeals more to patients who think as they do.
And then there are the scams. So many “red light” devices have flooded the marketplace, at the provider and consumer levels. Unfortunately, most of them are just red light bulbs with unverified wavelengths and zero cellular impact.
This has led to a lack of trust in light-based medicine, one that we believe can be combatted with the facts. Our approach to living well through the power of light is based on NASA-inspired research and Nobel Prize–recognized science to ensure the best-possible patient outcomes.
How Red Light Therapy Works
At its core, photobiomodulation (PBMT) is cellular energy. The modality uses red and near-infrared wavelengths of light to target mitochondria and stimulate production of the body’s main source of energy.
- When targeted light wavelengths hit the body, they’re absorbed by the mitochondria
- Mitochondria generate more adenosine triphosphate (ATP), our main source of energy
- This increase in energy leads to cell damage repair, reduced inflammation, and new tissue growth
RLT is non-invasive, drug-free, and supported by decades of clinical research. And Aspen has been deeply embedded in its science, research, and application for 38+ years.
The Science Confirms It: 50+ Years of Proof
Scientists and clinicians both have published over 5,000 studies and 500+ randomized, double-blind controlled trials. Each one validates PBMT’s safety and effectiveness in accelerating the body’s natural healing and repair processes.
The founder of Aspen, Charles Vorwaller, has personally been at the center of this extensive research, including in this study: Utilization of the 1064 nm Wavelength in Photobiomodulation: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
That study found that PBMT was effective in reducing pain and increasing range of motion, functional scores, and quality of life. All with the power of light.
When you begin to look, the evidence is abundant:
- Studies show deep tissue laser therapy as a beneficial treatment option to relieve neuropathy symptoms.
- Several studies indicate that red light therapy may help alleviate mood disorders, including anxiety and depression.
- Red light’s effects on the brain have been shown to enhance mitochondrial function in brain cells, boosting mental clarity and focus.[1]
- In a review of over 60 randomized controlled trials, PBMT was found to reduce pain intensity by 30–50% across musculoskeletal conditions.[2]
- Study participants who received a month of red light therapy experienced significant, measurable decreases in the signs of aging (depth of wrinkles, cheek roughness, more skin elasticity, improved skin tone, and dermal density.
These results merely scratch the surface of what targeted, verified PBMT solutions can achieve. Aspen’s proprietary systems have been engineered to use the same clinically validated wavelengths and power parameters as those used in verified studies.
And those who use our products are finding similar outcomes for themselves and their patients.
Common RLT Treatment Outcomes
We hear stories on a regular basis of customers who feel the functional and energetic improvement, and providers who see measurable results like these:
- Reduced pain
- Reduced inflammation
- Tissue repair
- Tissue regeneration
- Better neurological function
- Improved circulation
- Better vascular health
- Less nerve damage
- Better athletic recovery and performance
- Skin rejuvenation
- Scar reduction
Experience or Share The Effects of PBMT
- Full-body red light therapy: At least 1 to 2x per week (daily if possible) in an RLT bed or portable RLT panels with verified wavelength production
- 10-20 minute sessions: This is plenty of time for the body to absorb light and stimulate cellular energy
- Use focused RLT or laser therapy as needed: Targeted light solutions for pain, inflammation, recovery, and more
- Only trust science-backed systems: Clinically validated wavelengths to generate meaningful outcomes
Key Takeaways: Accelerating The Body’s Natural Processes Using The Power of Light

- RLT activates cellular energy production, which supercharges everything else
- Patients experience reduced pain, inflammation, mood improvement, and more
- Only clinically-verified wavelengths achieve cellular regeneration
- RLT sessions should be daily or at least 1-2x per week for optimal absorption
- Targeted RLT or laser therapy is best for pain and recovery
