How Chiropractors Use Red Light Therapy to Improve Patient Outcomes

Chiropractors across the country are looking for new ways to improve outcomes and keep patients coming back.

Red light therapy is one of the most effective—and profitable—modalities they’re adding to their care plans.

Whether your focus is spinal health, pain management, or athletic recovery, integrating red light therapy into your chiropractic treatments helps patients heal faster, feel better, and stay loyal to your practice.

Here’s how it works and how to get started.


Why Chiropractors Are Using Red Light Therapy

Red light therapy (RLT), or photobiomodulation, uses clinically proven wavelengths of red (625–670nm) and near-infrared light (830–910nm) to:

  • Reduce inflammation

  • Stimulate ATP production in cells

  • Improve blood circulation

  • Accelerate soft tissue healing

All of which support better outcomes for your chiropractic care plans.

Unlike panels that only target small areas, a full-body therapy bed like the Max Miracle 9600 offers 360-degree coverage—hands-free.


Benefits of Red Light Therapy in Chiropractic Clinics

🟢 Pre-Adjustment Preparation

Applying RLT before manual adjustments helps relax tissues and reduce muscle tension—making adjustments easier and more effective.

🔴 Post-Adjustment Recovery

After an adjustment, RLT reduces inflammation and supports tissue healing, speeding up recovery and reducing soreness.

💡 Faster Pain Relief

Studies show that red light therapy can reduce chronic pain, joint stiffness, and muscle soreness by enhancing mitochondrial function and circulation.

🧠 Bonus: Brain + Nerve Benefits

Red light therapy shows promising potential in helping with cognitive health and neuropathy—especially relevant for aging chiropractic patients.
