Scientific Benefits of Light Therapy
Light therapy is far from being a fleeting trend or myth.
Over a thousand peer-reviewed studies and clinical trials have examined various forms of light therapy, also known as photobiomodulation or low-level laser therapy. The findings consistently highlight its effectiveness and benefits. This scientifically-backed health intervention is recognized for enhancing well-being, appearance, and performance.
Notably, NASA explored the use of light therapy in the late 1980s and 1990s for space applications. Over the past 20 years, clinical studies have confirmed that red and near-infrared (NIR) light therapy is non-invasive, safe, and effective, offering a versatile range of applications.
Light is as vital to human health as water, sleep, and nutrition. Our bodies are designed to thrive with abundant exposure to natural sunlight. However, with modern lifestyles keeping people indoors for over 90% of their time, most individuals fall short of their light needs. That’s where LUMYHEALTH steps in, offering premium, medical-grade devices that bring the benefits of light therapy to the comfort of your home.
Using a LUMYHEALTH device is simple—just sit or stand in front of it, and let your body and cells absorb the restorative light. Completely non-invasive and free from harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays, LUMYHEALTH treatments provide a safe and effective solution for optimizing your health and vitality.
Blue Light: 415–480nm – Acne Control & Skin Clarification
Key Benefits:
- Fights acne-causing bacteria
- Balances oil production
- Reduces inflammation and redness
How it Works:
Blue light penetrates the skin surface to target acne-causing bacteria (Propionibacterium acnes). By activating bacterial porphyrins, it generates oxygen radicals that naturally eliminate breakouts without chemicals. Blue light also calms inflammation, reduces redness, and helps regulate sebum, preventing clogged pores and future blemishes.
Enhanced Effects:
Pairing blue light with red light accelerates healing, soothes irritated skin, and promotes clearer, healthier skin over time.
Ideal For: Acne-prone skin, oily skin, teenage and adult acne management.

Green Light: 535–560nm – Skin Tone Balance & Pain Relief
Key Benefits:
- Reduces hyperpigmentation and dark spots
- Calms redness and visible blood vessels
- May relieve minor headaches and tension
How it Works:
Green light selectively targets melanin and hemoglobin, helping to even skin tone and reduce pigmentation. It may also have anti-inflammatory effects and can stimulate natural pain-relief pathways in the body. While research is emerging, green light therapy shows promise as a complementary treatment to red light for skin rejuvenation.
Ideal For: Uneven skin tone, hyperpigmentation, redness-prone skin.
