RedMed allows you to generate red light on your device's screen for a specific duration at a preferred pulse (from 0 to 30 Hz or up to 120 Hz on the iPad Pro) at the maximum brightness of your display. Red light has been shown to have a therapeutic effect, some studies show a heightened effect when the light is pulsed rather than static. 10 Hz is a good starting point for pulsing. The software aids you to turn off all the devices radio hardware (enable airplane mode) as well as mute the audio to enhance the therapeutic effect without any disturbance of calls or EMR (electromagnetic radiation). When cells are exposed to red light the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) increases along with ROS (reactive oxygen species) and NO (nitric oxide). All of these factors aid cellular repair. Important Note: Pulsing light is not suitable for photosensitive epileptics.
