The basic takeaway is this: we as humans need red and infrared light, and we don’t get enough of it. The engine of our cells, so it makes total sense that it could help so many functions in your body. It sounds really hokey that a light could make you feel better in all the ways, but there is a lot of science behind it (thousands of well-run studies), it’s already FDA approved for many uses (and is used by doctors, health spas, and physical therapists), and they actually know what the red light does – it activates, heals, and energizes mitochondria – i.e. You can see why I waited until now to try it. Each light that I bought was $799, and their price has since dropped to $699 (and you really only need one, but two makes the process quicker.) A couple of years ago, the cheapest Red Light Therapy device we knew of was $100,000. You haven’t heard of it because it only recently became affordable for consumers to own. So what the heck is Red Light Therapy and why haven’t you heard of it? Two weeks later, I bought the second Red Light. I never went back to my physical therapist – I had no need.
Within days, my back was significantly better and I was able to quit taking all medication. The book documented the many ways red light therapy had been proven to help the body, and the list of extensive FDA approved red light therapy uses won me over. So the fact that I am objectively, absolutely, 100% convinced of the results I have seen in the past month and a half is mind-blowing – especially to me.Īfter three years of regular physical therapy visits for my back, legs, and other ailments, and a year of my physical therapist continuously telling me that he thought I could benefit from Red Light Therapy, I bought a book – “The Ultimate Guide to Red Light Therapy” – that put the thousands of scientific studies into plain English, read the book in one night, and ordered my first Platinum LED BIO-600 Red Light that same night. So I try all the things, and I keep doing hardly any of the things. I take good notes, I measure results without emotion, and I usually come up short. I’m an early adopter of new things, and get excited about those things, but then I take a deeply analytical and objective view of them, and therefore cannot convince myself that they’re working. They never seem to work on me because placebo effects don’t work on me due to my extreme skepticism. Especially regarding the newest, greatest, fix-everything solutions. But let’s start by where I’m coming from. 45 days later, I now have zero back pain, I am running with zero pain AND at a pace that is 1 to 2 minutes a mile faster than I have been able to in over three years, and am falling asleep faster and sleeping comfortably. I also had sharp hip flexor pain when I tried to run, and an inability to get comfortable while sleeping. Two months ago I had chronic and continuous back pain (caused by dozens of recurring muscle knots) – I was seeing a Physical Therapist regularly, taking a muscle relaxer at night, 1-2 doses of ibuprofen a day, and having to take 1-2 heating pad breaks every day.
