What is Red Light Therapy?

It’s a painless and relaxing service that takes about 15 minutes. During your session, you’ll be in a private room with a contoured bed that emits red light. The process is 100% natural, drug and chemical free, non-abrasive, non-ablative (does not damage the skin), painless, safe for all skin types and ages, requires zero downtime or recovery.

 

How does Red Light Therapy Work?

It uses low levels of red and near-infrared light to help power your cells and promote healing and energy. Red Light can penetrate the skin to a depth of 8-10 mm. to reach underlying tissues and stimulate cellular activity/regeneration. The low level, targeted wavelength produced by the bed will be absorbed by the mitochondria in your body. Mitochondria is responsible for many important processes in your day-to-day health, including healing abilities and energy production. Mitochondria is said to be the “power plant” in our body’s cells. When the cells in our body are given this extra energy, they can do their jobs more efficiently. Depending on which wavelength is chosen for the Red Light, different areas will be targeted.

 

What are the benefits of Red Light Therapy?

Research and studies have shown that red light therapy is beneficial for:

• Improving energy

• Improving sleep

• Improving mood

• Reducing pain

• Reducing inflammation

• Improving eye health

• Improving physical performance

• Aid in muscle recovery

• Aid in fat loss

• Aid in wound healing

• Improve hair growth and prevent hair loss

• Increase collagen production and skin health

• Reduce fine lines and wrinkles

• Improve acne

• Improve rosacea

• Improve visible scarring and stretchmarks

• Reduce pain

• Influence gut microbiome

• Increase blood circulation

• Repair sun damage

• Aid in overall cell damage

 

Is Red Light Therapy Safe?

Yes! Red Light Therapy uses very low levels of heat and wavelengths that do not hurt or burn the skin. Unlike tanning beds, Red Light Therapy won’t expose skin to damaging UV rays. There are no known negative side effects of using Red Light Therapy.

 

What are other names for Red Light Therapy?

 

• Low level laser light therapy

• Low power laser therapy

• Non thermal LED light

• Soft laser therapy

• Bio stimulation or photonic stimulation

• Photo biomodulation or phototherapy

 

How will Red Light Therapy help with fat loss?

Red Light Therapy triggers the formation of small openings in pores or fat cells, which release fatty acids known as lipids. With consistent use of Red Light Therapy, these fat cells will release the lipids/fatty acids into your body and then you’ll excrete these lipids naturally.

 

 

How do I prepare for a Red Light Therapy Session?

It’s best to avoid eating 1 hour prior to your session and 1 hour after. Lotions and sunscreen will minimize the effect of the light, so coming with bare skin is best. We recommend drinking at least 30 oz. of water before your session followed by 90+ oz. throughout the rest of the day. Once you arrive, you will undress as much as you’re comfortable doing to maximize results. Red Light can not penetrate through clothing.

 

 

How do I maximize my results?

To maximize your results, consistency is key! The more frequently you use Red Light Therapy, the better the results will be. You might see results after just 1 session, but multiple sessions are needed to maximize results. It is recommended to use Red Light Therapy 2-3x/week for 2 to 3 months and then 1 weekly session to maintain your results.  It’s like exercise for your cells. You can’t gain muscle after lifting weight for just 1 day. The other way to maximize results is to fuel your body with proper nutrition and plenty of water. Once the cells begin to repair/regenerate, the toxins need to be released from your body. Drinking plenty of water will help flush the toxins and support the detoxification process.

Vibration plates generate high-frequency vibrations that cause muscles to contract and relax at a rapid pace. This involuntary muscle activity requires energy, which the body derives from burning calories, including those stored as fat. Regular use of a vibration plate can increase muscle strength, enhance blood circulation, and boost metabolism, all of which can aid in weight loss and body toning. The vibration also stimulates lymphatic drainage, which can help in reducing water retention and detoxifying the body. When red light therapy is combined with vibration plate exercises, the two methods complement each other to accelerate fat loss and improve muscle tone more effectively than when each is used alone. The red light could help in breaking down the fat cells, making them easier for the body to use as energy during the vibration plate exercises. This synergistic effect could not only aid in weight loss but also improve the elasticity and appearance of the skin, as red light therapy has been shown to stimulate collagen production.

 

 

Why is Red Light Therapy Worth the Investment?

The specific machine that we have is from Dahlia. It uses medical grade infrared light therapy specifically designed to target certain parts of the body. The Dahlia full body Red Light Therapy bed is the top of the line for getting results with the medical grade, targeted wavelengths. One session (15 minutes) in the Dahlia Red Light Therapy bed is the equivalent to six workouts (30 minutes each). That translates into getting the same results in a relaxing 15-minute nap in bed as you would if you worked out 6x/week for 30 minutes each day!!! The Dahlia Red Light Therapy beds are made in the USA and designed by biomedical engineers. The beds are put through an extensive process to earn the highest rating of Medical Grade Certification. The Dahlia Red Light Therapy bed is the only one of its kind to have earned this distinction.
