Light therapy offers a simple, natural way to support daily vitality, especially when used consistently and intentionally. Two wavelengths stand out when it comes to activation and clarity: Red light (660nm) and Near‑Infrared light (NIR). These wavelengths interact with the body in ways that help lift energy, support clarit
