Just like Manchester City striker Erling Haaland, more and more professional athletes are using red light to optimize their muscle recovery. Yet another marketing gimmick? "No!" assures Aurélien Marchesi, the performance manager of the Red Star academy. "It's a scientifically validated tool that limits inflammation and chronic pain, accelerates healing after minor trauma, improves tissue quality, and optimizes mitochondrial function, thus improving muscle performance," explains the man who also coaches the Central African national team. "It's not miraculous, but when integrated into a serious protocol (sleep, nutrition, appropriate planning), it becomes a real asset against aches and pains and for strengthening muscles."
