Clinical Trial: Red Light Therapy: a Potential Strategy to Reduce Sports Injury Risk?

U.S., March 18 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07477678) titled 'Red Light Therapy: a Potential Strategy to Reduce Sports Injury Risk?' on March 13.

Brief Summary: This study investigates whether near-infrared light therapy can acutely improve ankle dorsiflexion mobility and hamstring flexibility, two factors associated with sports injury risk. Healthy adult students will complete three randomized conditions: a control session, a 10-minute cycling warm-up, and a 10-minute exposure to a red and near-infrared LED panel (MITO LIGHT(R)). Mobility and flexibility will be assessed before and after each condition using the Knee-to-Wall Test (KWT) and the Active Knee Extension Test (AKET). The study aim...
