The Lightstim LED Bed can be a great option for anyone looking to address a wide range of concerns. This often includes stress and anxiety, sleep issues, circulation issues, and many other conditions of the skin and body.
How the LED Bed Works
The Lightstim LED Bed uses specific wavelengths of light—which interact with your cellular structures—to stimulate healing and regeneration.
The red and near-infrared lights
penetrate into the skin, creating a number of cascading beneficial effects. The lights stimulate the release of cellular energy (NO and ATP), providing a rejuvenating effect to the entire body. Vaso-dilation reduces blood pressure and improves blood flow to the body, helping with pain and soreness. And the lights also stimulate collagen and elastin production to improve your overall appearance.
The combination of these processes can have a therapeutic effect on your body, which relatively improves sleep quality and energy levels. Additionally, the light can help regulate your circadian rhythms and encourage the production of melatonin, which also contributes to good-quality rest.
The soothing effect of the Lightstim LED bed can also help with chronic stress and tension. It contributes to an overall enhanced feeling of well-being and relaxation, which can help alleviate the physical symptoms of stress, such as feelings of anxiety.
Among its other various benefits, the Lighstim LED Bed can support healthy blood pressure by improving your cardiovascular health. The red and near-infrared light wavelengths can stimulate relaxation and dilation in your blood vessels, improving blood circulation. Additionally, the stress-reducing effects of the Lightstim LED Bed can promote a healthy heart.
