As a personal trainer helping active adults and busy parents optimise their health and fitness, I always explore effective recovery tools. One treatment that's gained significant attention is red light therapy (RLT). This non-invasive approach uses specific wavelengths of light to potentially improve skin health, reduce inflammation, and support recovery after workouts. But what exactly is it, and could it benefit your wellness routine?

One of my sports-specific clients recently asked me what benefits can be gained from doing cardio as part of their recovery programme. Walking or jogging at a leisurely pace can enhance blood flow and help you recover. Even a few minutes of movement the day after a challenging workout is enough to promote circulation and help reduce stiffness and soreness. If you have been training hard and enduring it but still being plagued by muscle soreness, it is time to give cardio a try.
