Red Light Therapy is a process of emitting light wavelengths through the skin to stimulate your body's natural healing and regeneration processes. Learn more about how it works and how it can help you.
Let Light Work Its Magic on You.

Red and infrared light therapy boosts blood flow to hair follicles, reactivates dormant roots, and stimulates natural hair growth at the cellular level—thicker, fuller hair starts here.

Red & Infrared Light Therapy supports cellular function by enhancing mitochondrial activity and promoting natural cellular energy production (ATP), helping optimize tissue performance and recovery.

Red and infrared light therapy enhances skin health by stimulating collagen production, which helps reduce wrinkles and improve elasticity. It promotes cellular repair and boosts circulation, leading to a clearer, more radiant complexion and faster healing of damaged skin.

Red and infrared light therapy may boost fertility by increasing testosterone production and stimulating the brain’s pineal gland, supporting hormonal balance and reproductive health.

Red and infrared light therapy helps ease joint stiffness and soreness, diminishes inflammation, and reduces muscle spasms by increasing blood flow, promoting faster relief and recovery.

Red and infrared light therapy enhances sleep quality by boosting melatonin production and reducing pain and discomfort, helping you rest more deeply and wake refreshed.

Red and infrared light therapy accelerates muscle repair and stimulates mitochondria and stem cells, promoting faster recovery and improved healing.

Red and infrared light therapy dilates blood vessels to boost blood flow while protecting red blood cells and platelets, enhancing overall circulation and oxygen delivery.

Red and infrared light therapy soothes sore muscles, joint pain, and arthritis, while easing symptoms linked to autoimmune diseases, spinal cord injuries, and traumatic brain injuries.

Red and infrared light therapy increases endurance and reduces muscle fatigue to keep you moving stronger.

Red and infrared light therapy helps stimulate metabolism and reduce inflammation to aid healthy weight control.

Red and infrared light therapy supports brain health and reduces stress for a clearer, calmer mind.

Red and infrared light therapy enhances your body’s natural defences for better overall health.

Red and infrared light therapy accelerates tissue repair for faster recovery from cuts, burns, and scars.

Red and infrared light therapy accelerates tissue repair for faster recovery from cuts, burns, and scars a painless, drug-free therapy with no downtime, perfect for regular wellness maintenance.

Red and infrared light therapy is a non-invasive, pain-free treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light to penetrate the skin and stimulate cellular regeneration, blood flow, and tissue repair. This therapy is ideal for anyone looking to reduce inflammation, accelerate healing, enhance skin health, and support overall wellness—naturally.
Whether you're recovering from an injury, managing chronic pain, experiencing joint or muscle stiffness, or simply aiming to improve your skin's appearance and vitality, Red and infrared light therapy may offer the relief and revitalization you need.
Because it’s gentle, relaxing, and backed by scientific research, many clients find it to be an easy addition to their wellness routine with long-term benefits for the body and mind.

Red light (630–660 nm) and infrared light
(800–850 nm) penetrate the skin at varying depths. Red light reaches the surface and mid-layers of the skin, while infrared light penetrates deeper into muscles, tissues, and even joints. This light energy is absorbed by the mitochondria—your cells’ powerhouses.

Once absorbed, the light stimulates mitochondrial activity, boosting the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate)—the energy source for all cellular functions. This energizes the cells, supports repair processes, reduces oxidative stress, and promotes cellular regeneration at the source.

As a result of increased cellular energy and reduced inflammation, the body begins to heal more effectively. Benefits may include faster tissue repair, improved skin tone and collagen production, reduced joint and muscle pain, and enhanced circulation—helping the body recover and rejuvenate naturally.
Red and Infrared Light Therapy at CryoStrong Toronto is one of the most versatile treatments we offer because it genuinely benefits such a wide range of people. If you are dealing with chronic joint or muscle pain, skin concerns such as wrinkles, acne, or scarring, hair thinning, poor sleep, or slow recovery from workouts or injury — this therapy was designed with you in mind.
It is particularly popular among clients in Markham and across the GTA who are looking for a natural, drug-free approach to feeling and looking better. Because it is completely painless, relaxing, and requires no downtime, it fits easily into any lifestyle — whether you are a busy parent, a competitive athlete, or someone managing a long-term health condition.
Sessions at CryoStrong Toronto are simple and comfortable. You will lie or stand in front of our professional-grade red and near-infrared light panels for a set period of time, typically between 10 and 20 minutes depending on your goals. The light is warm and soothing — many clients use the time to relax, meditate, or simply decompress. There is no pain, no UV exposure, and no recovery period required afterward.
Results vary depending on the condition being treated. For skin health and anti-aging goals, most clients begin seeing noticeable improvements after 4 to 6 sessions. For pain management and recovery, benefits are often felt sooner — sometimes after just 2 to 3 sessions. For best long-term results we recommend 3 sessions per week for the first month, then reducing to 1 to 2 sessions per week for ongoing maintenance.
CryoStrong Toronto is located at 800 Denison St, Unit 5, Markham, proudly serving Toronto and the entire GTA. Our team will assess your specific goals and recommend the right session length and frequency to get you the results you are looking for.
