What Is Red Light Therapy?

MedWave delivers low-level red and near-infrared light to the skin and underlying tissue. This light is absorbed by mitochondria — the “powerhouses” of your cells — helping them produce more usable energy (ATP) to support repair and resilience.

When cells have greater energy availability, they are better able to:

• Repair and rebuild tissue efficiently
• Manage inflammation and oxidative stress
• Support healthy circulation and recovery

The goal is straightforward: support your body’s natural ability to function, recover, and adapt.

How MedWave Supports Healing

MedWave Red Light Therapy is designed to support biological processes that play a role in comfort, recovery, and physical performance:

• Increased Cellular Energy (ATP): supports tissue repair and resilience
• Improved Circulation: enhances oxygen and nutrient delivery while supporting waste removal
• Inflammation Support: helps promote comfort and mobility
• Tissue Recovery: assists muscles, tendons, ligaments, and joints

 Conditions MedWave May Help

MedWave Red Light Therapy is often used as part of a broader care plan to support a variety of concerns, including:

• Muscle soreness and post-activity recovery
• Joint stiffness and discomfort
• Tendon and ligament strain
• Neck and back discomfort
• Localized inflammation and swelling
• Recovery support between SoftWave sessions
• General wellness, energy, and performance support

MedWave vs. Other Light-Based Treatments

Not all light-based therapies are the same. MedWave stands apart because it is:

• Non-invasive and comfortable, with no downtime
• Non-thermal, meaning it does not burn or damage tissue
• Designed around clinically relevant wavelengths
• Quick and convenient, making it easy to fit into daily life

Rather than masking symptoms, MedWave focuses on supporting cellular health and recovery processes.

What to Expect During Treatment

1. Target Area Identified: based on your goals and areas of concern
2. Light Applied to Skin: gentle warmth with no discomfort
3. Relax: sessions typically last 10–20 minutes
4. Return to Your Day: no downtime required

Many patients choose MedWave as a complementary service alongside SoftWave Therapy for added recovery support.
