Red light therapy for sleep problems
Sleep problems can have major short- and long-term effects. Whether you have trouble falling asleep, wake up during the night or don't fall into a deep sleep, red light therapy is one way to tackle these sleep problems. Read here what red light can do for you and how you can treat yourself.
What are sleep problems?
Sleep problems disrupt your normal sleep rhythm or sleep quality. This means, for example, that you have difficulty falling asleep or wake up during the night. It may also be that you sleep well, but still wake up feeling tired.
Better sleep is very important for maintaining your concentration, mood and energy levels. A period of poor sleep can even have long-term effects.
What are the symptoms of sleep problems?
The symptoms of sleep problems manifest themselves differently in many people. You may have difficulty falling asleep, wake up frequently, or wake up early. You may not necessarily sleep “poorly”, but you may feel tired during the day, be irritable, and even have a lower immune system.
How can red light therapy help to sleep better?
Intranasal red light therapy, which involves using red light through the nose, helps you sleep better. The light directly influences blood flow and energy production in the cells. This stimulates the natural processes in your body, allowing you to relax more easily.
In addition, the red light also stimulates the production of melatonin, the “sleep hormone”. This not only helps you sleep better, but also restores your natural day-night rhythm. Many users notice that their body becomes calmer, that they fall asleep more quickly and wake up more rested.
After 2 to 4 weeks of use, the following effects are often experienced: you fall asleep more quickly, wake up less often during the night, feel more deeply rested and notice a calmer heartbeat due to improved heart rate variability (HRV).
How this works:
- Mitochondrial stimulation: restores energy production and balance in the cells.
- Nitric oxide regulation: improves blood flow and oxygen supply.
- Melatonin normalisation: supports faster and more stable sleep.
- Neuro-inflammation inhibition: reduces brain overactivity and worrying.
- Parasympathetic activation: calms the nervous system and lowers the heart rate.
- Circadian reset: helps restore your natural sleep-wake rhythm.
In this way, intranasal red light therapy can not only help alleviate sleep problems, but also contribute to addressing the underlying causes.
Is the use of red light therapy for sleep problems scientifically proven?
There is a growing body of research showing that red light therapy can contribute to better sleep quality. Studies conducted on photobiomodulation show that red light stimulates melatonin production, reduces inflammation and calms brain activity.
Which device is best to treat sleep problems?
To address the cause and effects of sleep problems, we recommend using the IN-light red light therapy laser. This makes it possible to treat the problems from within. Not only do you address the cause, but your body also actively works to promote the production of melatonin.
Treatment protocol IN-light Pro for sleep problems
Our guideline for the IN-light is to use the laser twice a day for half an hour. When you purchase the device, you can use the manual to calculate the exact treatment duration based on your age and weight.
