infra red light therapy

[emmjay77]

good afternoon.

Has anyone tried infra red light therapy? Has it helped with the pain at all ?

I’m thinking of getting a belt (as against a lamp) as it would be targeted.

I’d just like to talk to someone who has tried this.

Thank you

I am going to follow…i haven't yet…very interested I read on several different sites it has helped greatly… I’m actually thinking of getting a sauna for inside my house with different light therapies.

I’ve just ordered an indoor sauna. There is a lot to research before you purchase. I have learned that you get what you pay for. Radiant Health Saunas, based out of Canada is what I decided on. Low EMFs and other features I liked. Check out Certified Saunas on YouTube with Matt Justice. He’s got a ton of videos on all different saunas - all different price ranges. I also joined the Certified Saunas Community on Facebook before I decided on my purchase. Lots of good info and feedback from community. Looking forward to using the sauna soon! Beware - some companies will hound you with phone calls and texts after you request pricing on line from them. Radiant Health does not do that. Good luck!

Hi Kat I have been wanting to get a small one or 2 person infrared sauna for our home for a long time Could you tell me specially which one you bought from radiant health ?

I bought the E-3H. It’s just the two of us but my understanding is better to go a little larger because the two person would be kind of tight for the two of us. My husband is 6’4, slender build, I am 5’3, also a slender build.

I have a Lifepro Red Light Therapy Belt. I've had issues with my hip/glute area. I usually use it post-workout recovery for about 25 minutes a session about five times a week. The heat from it does relaxes my muscles. Since I've been using it, I feel it does help with inflammation. I find it soothing, but I don't know how it would be if you used it for severe pain. There are places that have red light therapy that you could probably book a session with to see how your body responds to it before purchasing anything. For instance there are wellness centers, chiropractic places, medical spas and physical therapy, and cryotherapy centers that offer red light therapy.

I have a Lifepro belt and small square light. The belt is good for a small specific area (it helped my husbands arthritic hands). The square light is good for larger areas. I use that for my hip/lower back. I feel they both help.

Would it work on the tight tendon on the outside of my left knee? I have trouble with that. If it works on arthritic hands, surely it can go around my knee. . . .

I would assume so. I'm just going off of what we've done.

My daughter bought the Lifepro belt on Amazon last year. We both use it for back pain. The heat is very soothing and will wear it while watching tv. It definitely helps with pain and happy to get some relief.
