The Science Behind Red Light Therapy
Red and near-infrared light therapy uses specific wavelengths to support cellular energy production and overall health. Joovv devices are designed around clinically studied wavelengths and dosages to deliver consistent, reliable results
How Red Light Therapy Works at the Cellular Level
Scroll to learn how red light therapy works and the impact it has on our bodies.
Cells are the Foundation
The human body contains trillions and trillions of microscopic cells responsible for every structure and function. Known as the building blocks of life.
Power House of the Cell
Inside every living cell are mitochondria known as the “powerhouse” of the cell. These tiny organelles convert food and oxygen into energy for the human body.
Optimal Energy and Balance
When our cells can produce the right amount of energy our bodies can function as they were intended maintaining an optimal state of balance and harmony.
Cellular Imbalance Over Time
When cells cannot produce enough energy, performance and recovery can decline. This imbalance is often linked to reduced cellular efficiency over time.
Red and Near-Infrared Light Supports Cellular Energy
Red and near-infrared light therapy delivers wavelengths that are absorbed by mitochondria within cells, helping support cellular energy production and restore balance at the source.
One Joovv Two Spectrums of Light
Joovv devices deliver an even blend of red and near-infrared light, designed to support both surface-level and deeper tissue treatment.
Red (660nm)
Red light is absorbed by surface tissue and skin, supporting cellular function and skin health.
Near-Infrared (850nm)
Near-infrared light penetrates deeper into the body, helping support recovery, circulation, and overall cellular performance.
Systemic Benefits of Red Light Therapy
The benefits of red light therapy have been studied in clinical research and published in medical journals. These findings highlight its potential to support whole-body health and performance.
Discover All the Benefits
Better cellular health can lead to systemic improvements across your body.
