Best Red Light Therapy Treatment and Device
I am looking for the best red light therapy treatment and device for my muscle recovery. I have pain in my joints and bones and I am looking for relaxation and getting rid of the pain completely. Sometimes, I even have inflammation in my ankles.
I recently came across some posts talking about red light therapy for pain management and I was wondering if anyone uses it for muscle recovery.
I researched on it a bit and found out that the 810nm to 850nm wavelengths in red light therapy devices are very helpful in muscle recovery and joint pains and the 1064nm wavelength is best for deep tissue penetration.
Any thoughts on this? Any devices that you would recommend me?

I purchased mine for my gluteal tendinopathy in hips and low back. I haven't used it like I should but will look into issues where you maybe should not do it in certain areas. I bought mine from Forefront Health. I know certain facilities have rooms that are red light therapy and I could see that working for overall being. Mine is small and focuses on certain areas.
@loyd1957 i have several small area VICONOR RLT. Love them. 2 are strips that go around my ankle or shoujlder, or just use it straight across chest, stomach- and one larger stand up panel that can be mounted on table (I also just hld it 2-3 inches from chest, tummy- and I am certain it helped with a recent bad case of bronchitis. uaually takes months to clear- this time only 3 weeks! Love them. And the customer service is terrific.
I hope replies come in cuz I'm also interested in finding out. Too
Does anyone experience pain on only one side of their jaw while chewing?
UPDATE: So, after almost 2 months of posting this thread, I was finally able to choose a device and reap its benefits.
After a lot of research, I chose Helio Glow panel from Helio Cure. There were 4 main reasons for this - highest LED density of 1064 nm wavelength which penetrates deep into the tissues for muscle recovery, no blue light which messes up with the sleep, transparency on the site about the technical specifications like wavelengths, lab results, number of LEDs etc. and excellent customer support (they were very patient with all my questions on phone and I spoke with them for about 45 minutes asking all my doubts).
Update on my condition - I have been doing red light therapy continuously from the past 6 weeks and have started seeing positive results from it. My pain in the joins has significantly reduced and my ankles also feel much better now. I didn't realize this until I was able to walk properly one morning last week. 10 minute sessions are enough with these powerful devices. I have also started to use it on my lower back because I sit in front of a computer all day.
Hope this helps people in choosing the right device and getting a natural alternative to medicines.
