Athletes work hard. Their bodies work even harder. Training, conditioning, and competition place constant stress on muscles, joints, and connective tissue. The real secret to performing better isn’t training more, it’s recovering smarter.
That’s exactly why red light therapy is becoming a must-have tool for athletes at every level. Backed by clinical research, red light therapy supports faster recovery, improved strength, and enhanced performance by working at the cellular level.
With high-performance devices like the JNH Lifestyles LT-300 and LT-100, athletes can now bring professional-grade recovery straight into their homes or training facilities.
How Red Light Therapy Works
Red light therapy uses wavelengths between 630–850nm, a therapeutic range known for increasing cellular energy, reducing inflammation, and supporting tissue repair.
Boosts Cellular Energy (ATP)
These wavelengths stimulate the mitochondria, increasing the production of ATP, the energy your muscles rely on for power, strength, and endurance.
More ATP means:
- Stronger performance
- Better training output
- Less fatigue
Reduces Muscle Soreness & Inflammation
Intense training creates micro-tears and inflammation. Red light helps calm this response while supporting natural tissue repair, helping athletes feel better between sessions.
How Athletes Use Red Light Therapy
Pre-workout: 10–15 minutes
- Increased circulation warms the muscles
- Improved neuromuscular activation
- Enhanced reaction time
- A more efficient warm-up with lower injury risk
Post-workout: 10–20 minutes
- Reduces DOMS (Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness)
- Accelerates tissue repair in muscles, joints, ligaments, and connective tissue
- Supports natural recovery processes
Frequency: 4–6 times per week
Distance: 6–12 inches from the body
Ideal range: 630–850nm (and the LT-300 extends even further for deeper benefits)
Long-Term Benefits for Athletes
- Improved endurance
- Faster recovery between sessions
- Better mobility and flexibility
- Reduced chronic inflammation
- Enhanced strength gains
- Greater overall training capacity
- Better sleep quality and circadian rhythm regulation
JNH LT-100 Targeted, Portable Athletic Recovery
The JNH LT-100 delivers two of the most researched and effective wavelengths:
- 660nm (red)
- 850nm (near-infrared)
This dual-wavelength combination is perfect for localized recovery, warm-ups, mobility routines, or smaller muscle groups. Its portable footprint makes it easy to position anywhere, from home gyms to locker rooms.
Ideal for: Pre-training warm-ups, targets recovery, shoulders, knees, lower back
JNH LT-300 Full-Coverage Performance Recovery
The JNH LT-300 Red Light Panel offers expansive coverage and features 8 therapeutic wavelengths:
This full-spectrum range targets both surface tissue and deep muscle recovery, making it ideal for athletes who want powerful therapy or need to address larger muscle groups like hamstrings, quads, glutes, and back.
Ideal for: Full-body recovery, post-training sessions, serious athletes
