Red + near-infrared · Cape Town

Light, delivered with intention.

Photobiomodulation, or PBM, is a treatment that uses red and near-infrared light to help your cells make more energy. People often use it to help with recovery after exercise, support relaxation and nervous system balance, improve skin health, and feel more energized overall. Our machine has the PBM, NIR and FIR. FIR is a possible anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and has wound healing effects. It is known to reduce muscle fatigue, increases nitric oxide and therefore speed up healing.
