Red (635 nanometer) is one of the most common wavelengths used by Acupuncturists to provide an effective and safe alternative to needles for patients with certain sensitivities or fear. It is completely painless which makes it great for children and those with sensitivities. The red laser model's wavelength is the same wavelength of a healthy cell. It's commonly used to increase ATP production in the cell and gently stimulate Acupuncture points and increase circulation.
