What Is Photobiomodulation (Red And Near-Infrared Light Therapy)?
Red and near-infrared (NIR) light therapy, also known as photobiomodulation (PBM) and low-level light therapy, uses emitted light to interact with cells and tissues in your body.
Safe and concentrated wavelengths of light are delivered into your body and absorbed by cells, enhancing their ability to generate energy and your ability to recover.
Different wavelengths of light are useful for different goals. The developers and engineers at Speed Of Light Products have carefully calibrated the wavelengths used in The BodyGuard to emit light at two very specific wavelengths in the red and near-infrared spectrum, and optimized dosing and treatment time.

There are many benefits to red and NIR light therapy, including but not limited to:
Benefits Of Red And NIR Light Therapy
- Increased exercise performance and recovery
- Reduced inflammation and pain
- Boosted immunity
- Faster healing
- Improved sleep quality
- Increased testosterone
- Improved skin health
Terms To Know
Photobiomodulation (PBM): This light therapy uses red and near-infrared light directed through your skin to enhance your body by helping with pain relief, wound healing, tissue regeneration, and immunomodulation, while also reducing inflammation.
Low Level Laser (Light) Therapy (LLT): his term is sometimes also used to describe photobiomodulation. PBM is generally the more scientific term used to describe this type of technology.
Red Light Therapy (RLT): This uses the same overall concept of PBM and LLLT, but specifically uses red light wavelengths to treat your body.
Near-Infrared Therapy: This therapy uses light invisible to the eye to penetrate deeper into your body. While there is no significant heat, it has a plethora of benefits for your body.
