Red Light Therapy

Aug 7

I’m loving my Joovv red light lamp! So, what’s red light therapy?

Red light therapy, or photobiomodulation, uses specific wavelengths of red light to treat the body. The key is finding the right wavelength – the sweet spot is between 630nm-670nm (skin level) and 810nm-880nm (cellular level). It increases the function of your cells’ mitochondria, which produce energy in your body.

8 More Benefits Of Red Light Therapy

There are several scientific studies on the benefits of red light therapy, including:

Improving thyroid function (especially hypo- and autoimmune thyroid issues)
Reducing eczema, rosacea, and acne
Increasing testosterone production
Increasing collagen production, reducing wrinkles and scars
Activating the lymphatic system which helps with detoxification
Increasing weight loss
Enhancing muscle recovery and peak performance
Decreasing joint inflammation

Where To Find A Red Light Therapy Lamp

Some spas have red light therapy lamps or you can purchase one for your home – the red light lamp I have hangs over my door and is really easy to use.

I have a combination light that has red light wavelengths that hit both the skin and cellular levels.

But taking a holistic approach that addresses your body, mind, AND spirit is the “secret sauce” to healing.

Why I Set New Year’s Intentions And Not Resolutions

What’s the difference between a resolution and an intention? At first glance, it may seem like a distinction without a difference, but they represent two different approaches. A resolution is a definitive course of action that is rooted in the future. It’s absolute – you either succeed or fail. An intention is an objective that is rooted in the present and does not limit you to a single outcome. And because of this, you can’t fail.
