As interest in light therapy and its health benefits grows, we face the exciting choice between different products that offer both red and near-infrared (NIR) light. Deciding which product best suits our specific needs becomes an important consideration.
The Great Jungle of Light Therapy
So, when we dive into this world of light therapy, it's like navigating through an exciting jungle of products and possibilities. Some products offer the magical combo of both red and NIR, while others fully commit to the deep-penetrating NIR light.
Light therapy like Your Favorite Drinks
It's like standing at a café counter full of delicious options. On one side, we have the combined "smoothie" of red and NIR – the energy-filled boost that reaches deep into the body. On the other side, we have the specialized "espresso" of only NIR – concentrated and focused on hitting the deep areas that need extra love.
Which drink do you want? The sparkling combo or the concentrated kick? The choice is yours, and that's where the adventure in the world of light therapy begins. Join us as we explore and navigate through these exciting options to find what suits your unique needs.
Red Light: The Skin's Radiant Secret
What does red light do on its own? Red light has been shown to offer benefits by penetrating about 2-3 cm into the body's tissues. It stimulates the cells' energy production and thereby promotes recovery and healing. Additionally, red light has positive effects on skin health and increases collagen production, which can contribute to radiant skin.
Near Infrared Light: The Silent Power
Near-infrared light (NIR) is like the silent hero in the world of light therapy. The invisible light from NIR penetrates deeply into the body and reaches organs, tissues, as well as the brain and nervous system. NIR has documented pain-relieving properties and can be used to alleviate discomfort when needed. It has also been shown to have benefits for muscle recovery and can penetrate the skull, increasing effectiveness in brain treatment.
Best of Two Worlds: The Combination of Red and NIR
What happens when we combine red and NIR? We get the best of both worlds. The combination provides both superficial and deep treatment, resulting in a comprehensive therapeutic experience. It's like giving the body a complete wellness experience, where energy flows from the surface down to the deepest layers.
Nutrilights Blackline Series: Focused Therapy for Measurable Results
And then we have the Nutrilights Blackline series – the innovative light therapy panels that stand out by delivering only near-infrared light in four different wavelengths. This series takes it to the next level by focusing on deep treatment.
The invisible light in this product series is only of the type that penetrates deeply into the body and reaches large parts of organs, tissues, the brain, and the nervous system. It is documented to relieve pain and can be used for pain as needed. The skull can be penetrated by the light, making brain treatment more effective with only near-infrared light.
For those who train a lot, the Blackline products may also be preferable as larger muscles require more energy at depth to recover and grow. Although near-infrared light passes through superficial areas such as skin and hair follicles, very little of its energy actually accumulates there, making the Blackline products slightly less effective than regular red light lamps when it comes to hair growth and skincare. While they may not provide the same broad coverage in terms of applications within both beauty and health as a combined panel does, it is ideal for those seeking specific and concentrated near-infrared therapy. The Blackline series is designed to give you exactly what you need, without unnecessary excess.
Double NIR - Advantage with Nutrilights Blackline
The unique concept behind the Nutrilights Blackline series offers advantages in two crucial ways. Firstly, the products within the series provide four different wavelengths of near-infrared light (NIR), enabling broader spectral coverage and thus potentially more effective treatment. The increased variation in NIR wavelengths can contribute to a more targeted and diversified light therapy.
Secondly, and equally importantly, the Blackline series has twice as many NIR diodes compared to conventional panels, with both red and near-infrared light. Traditional panels, which combine both red and near-infrared light, are usually constructed with half of the diodes emitting red light and the other half emitting near-infrared light. This translates into increased intensity and efficiency in NIR treatment. By maximizing the number of NIR diodes, the Blackline series aims to optimize results for users.
Traditional Red or Revolutionary Blackline?
Choosing between our traditional red light panels and a product from the Blackline series gives you the opportunity to customize your light therapy according to your unique needs and preferences. Depending on your specific goals, each option can offer benefits that will enhance your overall health and well-being.
If you are aiming for a comprehensive solution to promote both skin health and deep muscle therapy, a combined red and NIR product may be the optimal choice. These advanced panels provide broader coverage, which can enhance the ability to improve your skin and facilitate muscle recovery.
If you want to take the next step in your red light therapy routine and wish to reach deeper and achieve better results in reducing inflammation, muscle pain, improving cognitive performance, better sleep, etc., a device with only near-infrared light (NIR) from Nutrilights Blackline series is a powerful and targeted solution.
The studies and research presented here are conducted by independent researchers and institutes. Nutrilight does not fund these studies and has no connection to their execution. These studies generally concern photobiomodulation and are not specifically related to Nutrilight's products.
