Red light therapy targets the mitochondria, the powerhouse of our cells, providing them more energy to function. The noninvasive treatment has been shown to alleviate pain and inflammation, and aid in muscle recovery, skin health, and more. While red light therapy once required cumbersome lamps or a trip to a specialized facility, Lumaflex Body Pro packages the tech in a flexible panel that straps onto any body part, putting its red- and infrared LEDs in direct contact with the sore area. Lumaflex touts the Body Pro as an athletic performance and recovery booster, but CEO John Graham says the FDA-cleared device can help anyone experiencing muscle pain.
