Red Light Wellness

Written By Dr Benjamin Bleess, Physical Therapist, CCI, CWS, Cert DN

Warroad Physical Therapy is excited to offer whole-body Red-Light therapy to our community. Our heavy-duty Red-Light Wellness bed uses 2000 therapeutic LEDs, accommodates up to 450-pound clients, and is made in the USA.  It combines red-light (625-670 nm) and near infrared light (830-910 nm) over your whole body to provide cutting edge health and wellness care that is typically only available in the metro areas but is now available right here. Soon, we will be 24/7 access when you need and want it most.

Red Light sessions are up to 15 minutes of daily pure relaxation. Single sessions are available to immediately stimulate wellness throughout your whole body. Larger session packages are also available which provide more dramatic results when done over longer periods of time.

Red Light doesn’t not burn the skin like ultraviolet light used in tanning beds, but instead gives you a healthy glow through increased circulation and natural collagen production which declines with age causing thinner, wrinkled, fragile skin. Your skin will feel healthier, more supple, and improved vitality to heal and repair.

Your body is nearly completely covered most of the time to protect it from mosquitoes and cold. Winters are long and cloudy days are frequent. This lack of light stimulation prevents your body from experiencing optimal health the way it was designed to thrive. Research demonstrates benefits for numerous conditions including concussion, acne, skin damage, depression, macular degeneration, retinopathy, chronic kidney issues, hair loss, sports recovery, and so much more.

Journal and take selfie prior to your first session and then retake pictures at least monthly to monitor your progress. We know that you’ll not only look better but you’ll also feel better.

Come by Warroad Physical Therapy and take one step closer to a healthier you! LIVE better, FEEL better, LOOK better, TODAY!
