Light sessions are a stand alone service that can also be added to any other service. We can combine up to 2 light colors during one session. We recommend 4 to 6 sessions per month for optimal results.
(Note: You shouldn’t have light therapy if you have a rare condition called porphyria, which is a disorder of the blood that leads to heightened light sensitivity, or if you have allergies to porphyrins. You also shouldn’t use this therapy if you have lupus. These recommendations show the potential for the therapy but are not conclusive evidence that it will work in every case. Consult your doctor if you have any concerns or think you may have sensitivity to light for any reason. Never stop any medication for depression or other conditions without consulting your doctor.)
Infrared light is one of several innovative modalities being used and tested for the management of patients with acute or chronic pain. The therapy uses certain wavelengths of light that are delivered to sites of the body that have injuries.
Unlike ultraviolet light - which has damaging effects upon the tissues and cells of the body - infrared light helps cells regenerate or repair themselves. Infrared light also improves the circulation of oxygen-rich blood in the body, promoting faster healing of deep tissues and relieving pain.
One of the characteristics of infrared light is its ability to penetrate below the skin layers, providing a much greater depth which is able to effectively provide pain relief. In fact, this invasive, natural, and painless method can provide a vast range of health benefits, without damaging the skin through UV radiation
