What is a Red Light Therapy Bed?

A red light therapy bed is a device resembling a tanning bed that emits low-level wavelengths of red and near-infrared light. Exposing your mitochondria to this light–a treatment known broadly as photobiomodulation–stimulates the production of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the energy-carrying molecule found in the cells of all living things. Increased ATP production accelerates cellular repair, boosts collagen production and enhances skin health, making this treatment a powerful tool for anti-aging, skin rejuvenation and pain relief.

The therapy bed envelops your body in light, allowing for a whole-body treatment experience. Unlike tanning beds that use harmful UV rays, these beds use safe, therapeutic light wavelengths that do not damage the skin but promote healing from within, addressing issues from fine lines to inflammation and muscle soreness.

Results

Results of using a red light therapy bed can vary depending on the individual and the frequency of treatments. After the first session, you may notice subtle improvements in skin texture and a reduction in inflammation. With consistent use, typically after 4 to 6 sessions, the skin will appear firmer, with diminished fine lines and improved overall tone. For those using the therapy for pain management or muscle recovery, relief may be noticeable after just a few sessions, with enhanced mobility and reduced soreness. Long-term benefits, such as weight loss support and sustained skin rejuvenation, become more pronounced with regular use over several weeks to months.

When you arrive at our medical spa, you’ll be greeted by a trained professional who will guide you through the process if it’s your first time and assist you in positioning yourself comfortably on the red light therapy bed. Once you’re positioned, the therapist will turn on the lights and allow you to relax for the duration of the session. You’ll experience a feeling of warmth or relaxation during the treatment. After the session, you can get dressed and go about your day–there’s no downtime whatsoever!

Red Light Therapy Beds vs. Handheld Devices

Advertisements for consumer-grade handheld devices promising the same benefits of professional-grade red light therapy beds may be all over social media, but don’t be fooled. A full-body red light therapy bed at a med spa offers several distinct advantages, including:

1. Full-body treatment: Med spa beds provide complete coverage, ensuring that all areas of your body receive the benefits of red light therapy. Conversely, handheld devices can be cumbersome to use for large areas and may not provide consistent coverage.

2. Professional Expertise: A Med spa professional can assess your individual needs and recommend the optimal treatment plan. They can also ensure that you’re positioned correctly for maximum benefit.

3. High-Quality Equipment: Med spas typically invest in high-quality, FDA-approved red light therapy beds like ARRC LED with advanced features. These beds deliver consistent, powerful light output, ensuring optimal results.

4. Therapeutic Environment: A Med spa is a serene and relaxing environment for your treatments, offering a moment of quiet self-care during your busy day. This atmosphere may enhance the overall effectiveness of the red light therapy session.

5. Comprehensive Treatment Plans: Many med spas offer comprehensive treatment plans or memberships that combine red light therapy with other complementary therapies, such as facials or massages. This integrated approach can provide even more significant benefits for your skin and overall well-being.

FAQs

Are red light therapy beds safe for all skin types? 

Yes, red light therapy is generally safe for most skin types. However, it’s always recommended to consult with a healthcare professional if you have any specific concerns or active skin conditions.

Do I have to take my clothes off? 

Yes–for maximum effect, it’s recommended to take your clothes off during treatment. The bed is located in a private room where you’ll have space to change.

How is a red light therapy bed different from an infrared sauna?

While both red light therapy and infrared saunas use heat to provide health benefits, they differ in their primary focus. Red light therapy uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate cellular activity and promote healing. Infrared saunas, on the other hand, primarily use heat to induce sweating and detoxify the body.
