Near Infrared Wavelengths

Meaning

A specific range of electromagnetic radiation, typically spanning from approximately 700 to 1400 nanometers, which is invisible to the human eye but possesses unique biological effects due to its deep tissue penetration capabilities. These wavelengths are utilized therapeutically in photobiomodulation (PBM) to non-invasively target cellular structures beneath the skin’s surface. Near infrared light is clinically applied to promote healing, reduce chronic inflammation, and enhance cellular energy production across various tissues.
