Does red light therapy lower blood pressure?

google.com/search?q=does+red+light+therapy+lower+blood+pressure

A regular Google search showed mixed results, and no official science studies from the National Library of Medicine in the top nine results. A check directly on PubMed.gov discovered an interesting study involving hypertensive rats. The scientists applied red light therapy (660 nm) and concluded that PhotoBioModulation Therapy (PBM) reduced Systolic Arterial Pressure (SAP) in hypertensive rats, but not in normotensive rats. The PBM application also induced an elevation of Nitric Oxide (NO) concentration in serum from hypertensive and normotensive rats. Nitric Oxide is known to cause vasodilation.
