What is red light therapy?

Red light therapy is a non-invasive technique that uses specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light to stimulate cellular activity. Research suggests these wavelengths may support mitochondrial function, energy production, and cellular repair. It is also known as photobiomodulation.

Is red light therapy scientifically supported?

Red and near-infrared light therapy have been investigated in thousands of peer-reviewed studies examining cellular metabolism, inflammation, circulation, and neurological function. Research is ongoing in both clinical and academic settings.

What is the most comfortable red light helmet?

The Well Red Coronet is the lightest red light helmet and is the most comfortable to wear. It is also at the same time the coolest and highest intensity helmet because of it's open design, allowing the free flow of air to cool the scalp and helmet.

What is the best value red light helmet?

The Well Red Coronet combines low cost (under $1,000) with high output at each of the two optimum wavelengths (670 and 810nm) shown by clinical research to be the most effective. This makes the Coronet the best overall choice regardless of price.

Is the Coronet involved in any clinical trials?

The Well Red Coronet is currently being evaluated in several clinical trials, including those at Clinatec in Grenoble, France, the University of Lancashire in England and the National Institute of Integrative Medicine (NIIM) in Melbourne, Australia.

Journal article about lights in and on the head

Last year I wrote a blog post about a new journal article looking at the effects of red and near infrared lights shone inside the head (intracranial), and onto the head (extra-cranial).

I forgot to put a link to the article text. Oops.
