What Is Red Light Therapy?
Red light therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses specific wavelengths of visible red and near infrared light to stimulate activity inside your cells. At iCRYO Blakeney, our medical-grade LED panels deliver both 660nm red light and 850nm near infrared light, a combination studied for its ability to support mitochondrial function, the part of the cell responsible for producing energy.
This process, known as photobiomodulation, has been researched for decades in sports medicine, dermatology, and pain management. Unlike tanning beds or heat lamps, red light therapy uses no UV rays and produces no burning or peeling. You simply stand or sit under the panels while the light penetrates skin and soft tissue.
We offer red light therapy at our Blakeney wellness spa because it pairs naturally with our other recovery services, including whole body cryotherapy, infrared sauna, and compression therapy. Many Charlotte guests stack red light with these treatments as part of a broader medical spa routine focused on energy, recovery, and skin health. Each relaxed session lasts about 12 minutes, making this medical spa treatment an easy fit for a busy South Charlotte schedule.
How it works
Inside a Red Light Therapy Session
A typical visit takes about 15 minutes total, including a brief setup, with the light exposure itself lasting around 12 minutes. Here's what happens once you arrive at our Blakeney studio.
02
Get Positioned Under the Panels
You'll change into minimal clothing and step in front of or under the medical-grade LED panels. Protective eyewear is provided, and the panels can be adjusted for full-body coverage or a targeted area.
03
Absorb the Red and Near Infrared Light
For about 12 minutes, red and near infrared light penetrate your skin and underlying tissue. There's no heat buildup, no UV exposure, and no discomfort, just a warm, comfortable glow while your cells get to work.
04
Walk Out and Resume Your Day
There's no downtime after red light therapy. Most guests head straight back to work, the gym, or errands around Blakeney and South Charlotte, often noticing an energy lift right away.
What We Offer
Benefits of Red Light and Near Infrared Light Therapy
Red light therapy supports the body in several ways at once, which is part of why it has become a staple at our medical spa. Below are four of the most common reasons Charlotte guests add it to their routine.
Faster Muscle Recovery
Near infrared light therapy improves circulation and helps reduce inflammation after training, so soreness fades faster and you're ready for your next workout sooner.
Calmer Joints and Less Inflammation
Regular sessions can help ease chronic stiffness and joint discomfort by targeting inflammation at the cellular level, without medication.
Brighter, Firmer Skin
Red light therapy stimulates collagen and elastin production, which supports firmer texture, more even tone, and softer fine lines over time.
More Energy and Sharper Focus
By boosting cellular ATP production, red light therapy can leave you feeling more alert and clear-headed, without needing extra caffeine.

01Common Questions
Red Light Therapy Frequently Asked Questions
Here are answers to the questions we hear most from Charlotte and South Charlotte guests considering red light therapy at our Blakeney medical spa.
What is red light therapy?
Red light therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses red and near infrared light wavelengths to stimulate cellular activity. It's used to support recovery, reduce inflammation, and improve skin appearance without heat, UV exposure, or downtime.
Is red light therapy safe?
Yes. Red light therapy uses no UV light and produces no heat damage, making it a safe, well-tolerated treatment for most adults. As with any medical spa service, guests with certain conditions, such as pregnancy, photosensitivity, or active skin cancer in the treatment area, should consult their physician first.
How often should I do red light therapy?
Most guests see the best results doing 3 to 4 sessions per week, with each session lasting about 12 minutes. Consistency matters more than intensity, so building it into a regular routine tends to produce the most noticeable results.
What should I wear during treatment?
Minimal clothing works best so the light can reach as much skin as possible. Undergarments are typically fine, and protective eyewear is provided for every session.
When will I see results?
Many guests notice an energy lift and softer-feeling skin after their first session. Benefits like reduced fine lines, improved muscle recovery, and calmer inflammation tend to build over several weeks of consistent sessions.
