Photopuncture is targeted light therapy on specific points that correspond to nerves, muscles, and meridian pathways. Low level red and near infrared light is applied to selected points to encourage local circulation, reduce tension, and support the body’s self regulation. Photopuncture uses non thermal, low level light at select wavelengths, typically in the red range around 630 to 660 nanometers, and the near infrared range around 810 to 880 nanometers, to modulate cellular signaling in the skin and superficial tissues through photobiomodulation. The goal is to influence nitric oxide availability, mitochondrial activity, and local microcirculation.
Clothing: Wear comfortable clothing that allows access to arms, legs, back, and neck. Shorts or leggings and a tank or sports bra are perfect.

Who Benefits, Examples of Client Goals
Safety, Contraindications, and Informed ChoiceGeneral safety: Low level red and near infrared light is non invasive and considered low risk for general wellness use.

The Red Light Queen™ Difference
Results and ReviewsClient notes:
“Neck felt lighter and I slept so well that night.”
“My cooldown after lifting felt faster with the point work.”
“I love the ritual, breathe, light, then sauna.”
Individual experiences vary.
FAQIs it the same as acupuncture
No needles are used. Photopuncture uses light on points, some overlap meridian maps, some align with modern trigger points and nerves.
Does it hurt
Clients usually feel no pain, only gentle contact and a sense of warmth or calm.
How many sessions will I need
Many feel relaxed after a single session. For a goal based series, we suggest two sessions per week for two weeks, then weekly check ins, then maintenance as desired.
Can I tan on the same day
Yes, however schedule photopuncture when the body is cool, then tan later or on alternating days for best rhythm.
Can I combine with massage
Yes. Photopuncture first, massage second, or on separate days.
Is it safe for kids
We limit photopuncture to adults 18 and older except by special arrangement with parental consent.

- You are pregnant and have not discussed light exposure with your prenatal provider
- You have active cancer under treatment, defer until cleared by your oncology team
- You have active bleeding, infection, or open wounds in the target area
- You have implanted light sensitive medical devices, or any device that could be affected by light or gentle pressure
Use caution and ask us first if: - You have migraines triggered by light, we can modify exposure
- You have a history of seizures, we avoid flicker and intense ambient light
- You have very recent cosmetic procedures, including injectables or resurfacing
What to Expect, Aftercare
- You should feel relaxed, lightly energized, or both
- Hydrate well, a glass of water before and after is ideal

Light at 630 to 660 nanometers interacts primarily with superficial tissues in the skin
- Near infrared around 810 to 880 nanometers reaches deeper, often associated with microcirculation support
- Photobiomodulation describes non thermal light triggering a photochemical response, similar to photosynthesis analogies, without heat damage
- Nitric oxide signaling and mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase are two proposed targets in the literature
