Red light therapy

Red light therapy

Back pain is no joke. I have suffered with it my entire life and even considered surgery in my 20s. The longest I had ever gone without seeing a chiropractor was probably 6 weeks. I've been using red light therapy for over a year now and it has been life changing. My chiropractor (who I haven't seen in 6 months), thought I moved away 😂 But no, I've just learned how to treat my back pain at home.

Red light (and near infrared light) has so many benefits. This is how I use it:

Skin health (wrinkles, acne, scars): 10 minutes, 3-5 times/week (red light) I recommend using a good serum (read more here).

Joint pain relief: 10 minutes, 6-7 yimes/week (near-infrared light)

Muscle recovery: 10 minutes, 3/5 times/week (red + near-infrared light)

Sleep and circadian rhythm: 10-15 minutes before bed nightly (red light)

Brain health: 10 minutes, 5-7 times/week (near infrared light)

Thyroid health: 10 minutes, 5=7 times/week (either red or near infrared light)

This is not medical advice, so please consult with your healthcare professional and do your own research before using light therapy. It has helped me (and my wallet from not having to pay for chiropractor visits) immensely.

Here's a link to the red light I use. 

BONUS: This past year, I have improved my eye sight using red light. You can read all about the recent study here. And luckily the red light that I use has the correct settings for red and infrared light to help your vision.

Eye sight: 3 minutes in the morning with eyes closed. (red + near infrared)
