About Red Light Therapy

At Wavelength Wellness, we use MedWave™ 635nm Narrow Light™ Therapy, a non-invasive technology that uses the therapeutic power of red light to stimulate the body’s natural healing, rejuvenation, and metabolic processes—without pain, heat, or downtime.
  • Safe, Non‑invasive, quick & Painless
  • Medical‑grade devices (FDA & SAHPRA registered)
  • No downtime, needles, medication, or side effects
  • Backed by years of science & peer-reviewed studies
  • More results, in less time, for less cost

What Is Red Light Therapy?

Red Light Therapy (RLT), also known as photobiomodulation (PBM), is a form of light treatment that delivers red wavelengths of light to the skin and deeper tissues.

When delivered at specific wavelengths—most notably 635nm—this light energy is absorbed by the mitochondria, the “powerhouses” of your cells.

This stimulates ATP production, enhancing cellular repair, regeneration, and performance across multiple systems in the body.

Our Medwave devices™ are 3-5x more powerful than conventional red light contouring. It also utilises 585 LED focal lenses to deliver more powerful photonic energy than typical red light contouring — this more narrowed, focused design is why we call it Narrow Light™.

The Power of 635nm Narrow Light Wavelengths

635nm red light is a highly specific wavelength in the visible red spectrum that's been shown to:
  • Activate mitochondrial function and ATP production
  • Stimulate collagen and elastin synthesis in the skin
  • Trigger lipolysis (the breakdown of stored fat) in adipose tissue
  • Increase blood flow and oxygenation
  • Promote anti-inflammatory effects and reduce oxidative stress
MedWave™ technology uses narrowband light, which focuses the light emission for maximum therapeutic absorption—without damaging surrounding tissues.

Is Red Light Therapy Backed by Research?

Yes. Red light therapy has been extensively studied for decades in both clinical and research settings.

Thousands of peer-reviewed studies have demonstrated its effectiveness across a wide range of conditions, including:
  • Skin health: Improved texture, tone, elasticity, and reduction in fine lines
  • Fat loss: Reduction in circumference and cellulite via mitochondrial fat release
  • Wound healing: Accelerated tissue repair and inflammation reduction
  • Pain relief: Support for arthritis, muscle recovery, and joint inflammation
  • Metabolic support: Improved energy, hormonal regulation, and mitochondrial performance

How Long Has It Been Used?

Red light therapy has been used in clinical settings since the 1960s, originally explored in Eastern Europe and further developed by NASA in the 1980s to promote healing in zero gravity.

Since then, it has been widely adopted in:
  • Medical clinics
  • Sports and rehab centres
  • Dermatology and aesthetic practices
  • Chiropractic and wellness facilities
  • Elite athletic programs and physiotherapy practices

Who Is It For?

Red light therapy is suitable for most healthy individuals and is commonly used by:
  • People looking to reduce visible signs of aging
  • Clients wanting to slim, sculpt, or improve skin tone
  • Athletes recovering from injuries or fatigue
  • Individuals with chronic skin conditions like acne or eczema
  • Wellness clients looking to boost energy, detox, or support metabolic health
At Wavelength Wellness, we tailor every program to your unique body and goals, starting with a free 15-minute consultation.

Is It Safe?

Yes—red light therapy is non-invasive, non-thermal, and has an exceptional safety profile when used at appropriate wavelengths and doses. It is:
  • FDA-cleared for certain therapeutic uses
  • SAHPRA registered
  • Backed by clinical studies with no reported adverse effects when properly administered
  • Free of UV or damaging heat
  • Wellness clients looking to boost energy, detox, or support metabolic health
However, contraindications may apply for certain conditions. We assess this through a client intake form and initial consultation before starting any treatment.
