What is LED Light Therapy? 

Low level light therapy uses light emitting diode technology and is a simple, non-invasive treatment that delivers specific wavelengths of light energy to the skin and cells to obtain therapeutic benefits. 

“Enhances the healing process by giving the cells a boost of energy”

 In 1993 Nasa first experimented with LED lights to boost plant growth. NASA engineers then developed low level light therapy for astronauts for pain management and injury treatment on long-term space missions.
