IR and NIR Therapy to Improve and Function
Feel energized. Move Better. Notice the Difference.
At Longevity Lab, we harness the power of Infrared (IR) and Near-Infrared (NIR) therapies to reduce inflammation and accelerate the recovery and repair of skeletal muscle. These non-invasive, light-based treatments penetrate deep into tissues, promoting healing and enhancing mobility. By integrating IR and NIR into our personalized care plans, we help you recover faster, move better, and maintain optimal musculoskeletal health for a vibrant, active life.
How IR and NIR Work
Infrared (IR) and Near-Infrared (NIR) therapies use specific wavelengths of light—typically 700-1000 nanometers for NIR and 1000+ nanometers for IR—to penetrate skin and muscle tissue. Unlike ultraviolet light, IR and NIR are safe and generate gentle heat that stimulates cellular processes. When absorbed by cells, this light energy boosts mitochondrial function, increasing the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the energy currency of cells. Enhanced ATP production fuels muscle repair, reduces inflammation, and improves blood flow, all critical for recovery from injury or intense physical activity.
Reducing Inflammation
Inflammation in skeletal muscle, often caused by overuse, injury, or conditions like tendonitis, can limit movement and cause pain. IR and NIR therapies reduce inflammation by decreasing pro-inflammatory cytokines and increasing anti-inflammatory molecules. This process calms swollen or irritated tissues, relieving pain and restoring muscle function. For example, an athlete with a strained hamstring may experience faster pain relief and reduced swelling after IR/NIR sessions, enabling earlier return to training. We use these therapies to create an optimal healing environment for your muscles.
Speeding Recovery and Repair
IR and NIR therapies accelerate skeletal muscle recovery by enhancing blood circulation and oxygen delivery to damaged tissues. Improved blood flow brings essential nutrients and removes waste products, speeding tissue repair. Additionally, these therapies stimulate collagen production and fibroblast activity, key components of muscle and connective tissue regeneration. For instance, NIR can help repair microtears in muscles caused by intense workouts, reducing downtime and soreness. We tailor IR/NIR treatments to support your recovery, whether you’re healing from an injury or optimizing post-exercise repair.
