Red Light Therapy for Pain Management & Relief

Restore comfort. Reduce inflammation. Move freely again.

At Wavelength Wellness in Cape Town, we combine the power of 635nm Red Light Therapy to offer a natural, non-invasive solution for pain relief and tissue recovery.

Whether you’re struggling with chronic pain, inflammation, or post-injury discomfort, our treatments are designed to address pain at its source — not just mask the symptoms.

Ideal for:
  • Chronic pain (neck, back, shoulder, hip, knee)
  • Muscle tension or stiffness
  • Tendon or ligament injuries
  • Arthritis or joint inflammation
  • Sports recovery or overuse strain

How red light therapy works for pain management and relief

Red light therapy uses gentle, narrow-band wavelengths that penetrate deep into the body’s tissues. This light energy boosts cellular metabolism (ATP production), reduces oxidative stress, and increases circulation — all of which help your body heal faster and more efficiently.

It’s particularly effective for:

  • Joint and muscle pain
  • Inflammation-related discomfort
  • Stiffness and mobility issues
  • Nerve pain and fibromyalgia

Red light therapy reduces inflammation and accelerates cellular repair.

What Happens During a Session?

Each pain management session is designed to deliver targeted, effective relief in a calm and supportive environment.

All equipment is self-operated, which gives you full control and privacy during your treatment. But don’t worry – during your initial consultation, we’ll walk you through the entire process, step-by-step.

Our friendly assistant will also be available before your first session to make sure you feel completely confident using the equipment.

Each session typically lasts 30-45 minutes and is completely non-invasive, with no downtime required. 

Frequently Asked Questions

This depends on your specific condition and goals. Most clients begin noticing improvement after 3–5 sessions, with continued benefits over time.

Chronic or long-standing pain may require a longer, progressive treatment plan.

Red light therapy is completely painless and relaxing.

Shockwave therapy may cause mild discomfort during treatment, especially in sensitive or inflamed areas, but it’s short-lived and subsides quickly afterward.

Yes. Both therapies are non-invasive, FDA and SAHPRA registered, and have an excellent safety profile.

They have been used for decades in wellness, sports medicine, and rehabilitation settings.

Side effects are rare and minimal. You may experience temporary redness, mild swelling, or sensitivity after shockwave therapy, but these typically resolve within a few hours.

Red light therapy is very safe for most people, but there are a few exceptions. You should avoid or speak with your doctor first if you:

  • Are pregnant or breastfeeding

  • NLT™ Therapy might cause a reaction with some tattoo inks. If you have tattoos in the treatment area, monitor
    the response and consult with a healthcare provider if concerned.
  • Have a history of or active cancer or tumors

  • If there's an active bleed or a tendency to bleed (like in hemophiliacs), NLT™ therapy might not be recommended.
  • Take medications that cause light sensitivity / photosensitivity (like some antibiotics or acne meds)

  • If you've recently undergone radiation therapy, consult with your healthcare provider before starting NLT™ Therapy.
  • Have a severe eye condition and are not using proper protection

  • If you have an active skin rash, sunburn, or infections.
  • Have had recent organ transplants or photo-sensitive autoimmune diseases

  • Have any thyroid conditions or issues

We’ll go over this with you during your initial consultation to make sure the treatment is right for you.

Please wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that allows easy access to the treatment area (for example, shorts for legs or a tank top for shoulder treatments).

This helps us position the equipment correctly and ensures that red light and shockwave therapy are applied effectively to the affected area.

No downtime required. You can return to your normal daily activities immediately afterward — feeling lighter, looser, and more comfortable.
