*Infra red light therapy is one of the effective therapies applied in treating patients with chronic pain, Inflammation, and conditions like Frozen shoulder , Osteoarthritis ,Rheumatoid arthritis etc.
*This therapy is done by delivering certain wavelengths of light on various parts of the body ,then penetrates to inner layers of the Skin , reaches Muscle , Nerves and Bones and helps in healing tissues in a deeper level.

Switch on the light
Maintain a safe distance between body and light approximately- 1 feet
Good results need 15 min of exposure
Dosage should be decided by the Doctor.
