Muscle and Skin Pain:
Deep Red 630 670 nm or 650 nm plus Near Infrared (NIR)850 nm
Deep-tissue optical imaging of near cellular-sized features | nature.com sites A study using NIR-I imaging reported a maximum penetration depth through tissue of ~3.2 cm (1.5in)
Photobiomodulation (PBM) in human muscle tissue: an advantage in sports performance? ncbi.nih.gov compared studies of the results of 2 kinds of Light Therapy both after injury and before exercise to improve performance and prevent injury and reduce delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS).
They looked at 2 types
Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) (800 nm and 970 nm) or light-emitting diode therapy (LEDT) (850 nm and 660 nm).
Several studies showed a decrease of CK levels.
CK (Creatine Kinase protein) can rise after muscle injury.
There were studies showed positive results with both LLLT and LEDT.
Some studies had ambiguous effects (both positive and no effects.
Conclusion: PBM Works:
