What Is Red Light Therapy and why Is It Trending in Ireland?

If you've noticed more people talking about red light therapy lately, you're not alone. From Instagram skincare routines to veterinary clinics and physiotherapy centres, this non-invasive treatment is making waves across Ireland.

What Is Red Light Therapy?

Red light therapy uses LED devices to deliver specific wavelengths of red (633nm) and near-infrared (850nm) light to the skin and tissues. These wavelengths are clinically proven to:

  • Stimulate cellular energy (ATP)

  • Increase circulation

  • Reduce inflammation

  • Accelerate healing

It works by reaching deep into the skin, muscles, and even joints, triggering natural healing responses without heat, damage, or downtime.

Why Is It So Popular?

  1. It’s Safe & Non-Invasive: No needles. No chemicals. Just light.

  2. Multi-Purpose: Users report improvements in everything from joint pain and sports injuries to acne, scars, and ageing skin.

  3. Home-Use Convenience: Handheld devices like Photizo allow for treatment from the comfort of your couch.

Why Ireland Loves It

As people across Ireland seek holistic wellness solutions, red light therapy is gaining traction for:

  • Managing chronic pain in ageing populations

  • Supporting recovery for athletes

  • Offering gentle skincare solutions for rosacea, fine lines, and pigmentation

"I was sceptical at first, but after three weeks my rosacea had visibly improved." — Clare, Co. Kildare
