What is photobiomodulation

Photobiomodulation uses specific wavelengths or red and near-infrared light to stimulate cellular activity. This type of therapy is used for various medical and cosmetic purposes due to its ability to penetrate the skin and cells on a molecular level. Our red light laser has the ability to induce reduction in pain, accelerate cellular recover, and increase circulation to promote healing.

How It Works: 

Red light works by exposing the skin to low levels of red or near-infrared light. Unlike ultraviolet light, which can damage the skin, red and near-infrared light stimulate the mitochondria in cells, often referred to as the cell’s powerhouse. The mitochondria absorb the light and produce more adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the energy-carrying molecule found in the cells of all living things. This increased ATP production boosts cellular energy and accelerates healing and regeneration processes.

Benefits of Red light: 

  • Enhanced Tissue Healing due to enhanced blood circulation and lymphatic drainage
  • Accelerated Tissue Repair & Cell Growth due to increased available energy in the cell
  • Faster Wound Healing Red light stimulates fibroblast development, which are the building blocks of collagen. Collagen is the essential protein needed to repair tissue injuries
  • Reduced Fibrous Scar Tissue Formation by reducing formation of scar tissue following damage from cuts, burns, or surgery. Scar tissue is the primary source of chronic pain.
  • Modulating Inflammation by causing vasodilation and activating lymphatic drainage system
  • Analgesia Reduce the firing of the pain signals to the brain
  • Improved Vascular Activity by increasing the formation of new capillaries in damaged tissue to speed up healing process
  • Improved Nerve Function by speeding up the process of nerve cell reconnection
  • Immune System Regulation improvement of the local and global immune system

“I have been suffering from plantar fasciitis for nearly two year. Have tried so many things seeking relief. Jake offered to help me using Red Light .. after a number of sessions (which are pain free :)). I feel improvement occurring for the first time. While not yet “healed”, I am very happy that this therapy may be what I’ve needed. Working with Jake has been most helpful. The experience at Nekton is great… and I would recommend anyone suffering chronic pain to consider this alternative. Thank you!”

    Pricing:

    1 Session: $40

    Package option: $35/session (see below)

    Total cost is determined by the duration of the injury. Acute injuries typically do 6-8 sessions, while chronic injuries will have 10-12 sessions.
