Overview of
Light Therapy

What is light therapy?
Light therapy—or photobiomodulation (PBM)—is a non-invasive therapy that delivers natural light to your skin and cells. Joovv uses only specific red and near infrared wavelengths that have been found to be the most clinically therapeutic, without harmful UV rays, heat, or side effects. Joovv uses medical-grade LEDs to deliver the light to your skin and cells, where it produces a wide range of clinically-proven health benefits.
How does light therapy work?
Light therapy works at the cellular level, in your mitochondria. They’re the powerhouses of your cells, always hard at work making more ATP (adenosine triphosphate) energy to fuel your body. The photons in red and near infrared light excite the electrons involved in cellular respiration, breaking up nitric oxide bonds and letting hydrogen and water move through the process. The more efficiently your cells create ATP energy through cellular respiration, the
OVERVIEW OF LIGHT THERAPY
better your cells function on all levels, and the better your body feels and performs.
That’s a pretty simplified version of an extremely complex, microscopic process in your cells. To learn more about the details of light therapy science, check out www.joovv.com/learn.
Clinically-Proven Health Benefits
Thousands of peer-reviewed clinical trials and studies have been conducted on the effectiveness of light therapy, with research showing a wide range of significant health benefits for skin, inflammation & joint pain, muscle recovery & physical performance, sleep quality, sexual performance, weight management, and many others.
You can find detailed articles about each of these benefit areas with ample scientific documentation at www.joovv.com/learn.
