NCT ID NCT07477678

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether shining red and near-infrared light on the legs can improve ankle and hamstring flexibility, which may lower the chance of sports injuries. Forty healthy university students will try three things: no treatment, a 10-minute bike warm-up, or 10 minutes of red light therapy. Their flexibility will be measured before and after each session to see if the light helps.
