Gary Brecka’s Red Light Therapy (2025)
At-home red light therapy devices recommended by Gary Brecka (10x Health coFounder)
Red light therapy is one of the most powerful biohacking tools available today—and Gary Brecka, a leading human biologist and longevity expert, swears by it.
But does it really work? Or is it just another wellness trend?
Let’s dive into the shocking benefits, the science behind it, and why Brecka calls it a "game-changer" for anti-aging, energy, and overall health.
What Is Red Light Therapy? (And Why Gary Brecka Loves It)
Red light therapy (RLT) uses specific wavelengths (680-940nm) to penetrate your skin and supercharge your mitochondria—the tiny power plants inside your cells.
"Red light therapy isn’t just about glowing skin—it’s about cellular rejuvenation. It’s like giving your cells a caffeine shot without the crash." — Gary Brecka
How it works:
- The light boosts ATP (cellular energy) production by up to 16x.
- It reduces inflammation, speeds up healing, and stimulates collagen for younger-looking skin.
- Unlike UV rays, it’s safe, painless, and has zero downtime.
A Real-Life Success Story
One of Brecka’s clients, a 52-year-old executive, struggled with chronic fatigue and joint pain. After just 3 weeks of red light therapy, he reported:
- More energy (no afternoon crashes)
- Less joint stiffness (could finally play tennis again)
- Brighter, tighter skin (his wife asked if he got Botox!)
The 5 Biggest Benefits (Backed by Science)

How to Use Red Light Therapy (Gary Brecka’s Protocol)
Brecka recommends:
- 10-20 minutes per session, 3-5x per week.
- Stand 6-12 inches from the device for best absorption.
- Best time? Morning (for energy) or post-workout (for recovery).
"The Ten X red light bed is the Ferrari of RLT—but even affordable handheld devices work wonders." — Gary Brecka
