Red and near-infrared light therapy in Towson — a gentle, natural way to ease inflammation, support circulation, and speed recovery for the whole body.
Red and near-infrared light therapy bathes your tissue in gentle, precise wavelengths that your cells actually absorb and use. For Towson-area patients dealing with chronic aches, inflammation, or slow-healing injuries, it's a relaxing, natural complement to chiropractic care — one that works quietly at the cellular level while you simply rest under the light.

The basics
About light therapy
Red light (roughly 630–700 nm) and near-infrared light (700–1100 nm) penetrate the skin at different depths and are absorbed by mitochondria — the energy-producing centers in your cells. This stimulates the production of ATP (cellular fuel), nudges the body toward an anti-inflammatory state, and supports the formation of new capillaries that improve local circulation. The result is tissue that heals faster, hurts less, and recovers more fully.
Light therapy panels and wands deliver a broad, gentle dose rather than an intense focused beam — so sessions feel warm and relaxing, not sharp or intense. Because the mechanism is cellular rather than chemical, there is no drug load and no systemic side effects. It pairs well with chiropractic adjustments, myofascial release and rehabilitation exercise, helping everything else you're doing land a little better.

Light therapy — also called photobiomodulation or low-level light therapy — uses specific red and near-infrared wavelengths to stimulate cellular energy production, reduce inflammation, and support tissue healing. It is natural, non-invasive, and painless.
▸Does light therapy hurt?
No. Most patients describe it as pleasantly warm or simply relaxing. There is no UV light, no radiation, and no discomfort during a session.
▸What conditions does light therapy help?
We most often use it for arthritis, fibromyalgia, sprains and strains, post-injury recovery, and chronic inflammation. It also pairs well with flexion-distraction and soft-tissue work to accelerate overall healing.
▸Is light therapy safe?
Yes. Red and near-infrared light therapy has an extensive safety record. It is safe for most patients, though we screen for contraindications — such as active cancer at the treatment site or photosensitizing medications — before starting.
▸Will my insurance cover light therapy?
Coverage varies by plan. We accept many major insurance plans and offer affordable self-pay options. Contact us with your insurance details and we'll verify your benefits before your first visit.
▸What should I wear during a session?
Comfortable, loose clothing is fine. We expose only the area being treated, so you stay as covered as you like. Sessions typically last 10–20 minutes per area.
▸How soon will I notice a difference?
Some patients feel reduced soreness or improved mobility after the first few sessions. Cumulative benefits build over the course of a treatment series, and results tend to last well beyond the final session.
▸Can I combine light therapy with chiropractic care?
Absolutely — that's one of the best ways to use it. Light therapy supports the cellular environment so your adjustments and soft-tissue work produce more lasting relief. Dr. Abosh can integrate it into your existing care plan.
