A red light therapy blanket is a device that uses red and near-infrared light to promote healing and rejuvenation in the body. It uses low levels of red light to target your skin and cells. These red light blankets typically contain numerous light-emitting diodes (LEDs) that emit specific wavelengths of light, designed to penetrate the skin and stimulate cellular activity. Unlike infrared sauna blankets, led light therapy blankets do not rely on heat to achieve their therapeutic effects.
Because there are full-body benefits to red light exposure, wrapping up inside a blanket is a good way to absorb them from head to toe. "Consistent use of red light therapy has been shown to support post-exercise recovery, helping to reduce stiff muscles and calm your mind for optimized sleep.
Many people use red light therapy blanket to promote overall wellness, support muscle recovery after exercise, and experience temporary relief from minor aches and stiffness. Unlike tanning beds, Red Light beds do not expose you to UV radiation, so there is no risk of tanning or UV-related skin damage.
