Phototherapy, also referred to as light therapy, involves the mechanism of utilizing specific wavelengths of non-ionizing light to stimulate a biological cellular response. Within the framework of wellness patches, this refers to the reflection of the body’s naturally emitted infrared heat back into the skin to stimulate specific pathways.

For additional scientific parameters on light frequencies and biological tissue interaction, you can read the foundational overview on Wikipedia.
