Red Light Therapy
What is Red Light Therapy?
Red light therapy (RLT) is a treatment that uses low levels of red light to stimulate your body's cells - so that they can do their work more efficiently.
How does it work?
Clearlight® Light Therapy combines powerful red light (650nm) and near infrared (850nm) wavelengths to offer you the best therapy available today. It provides the most proven and effective therapeutic wavelengths to the entire body reducing oxidative stress and stimulating the production of ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate).
This process, known as Photobiomodulation, has been extensively researched for many years and adds measurable energy to the mitochondria of your cells. Our Red Light Therapy Tower can also be used during your sauna session. Light therapy has been tested across hundreds of peer-reviewed clinical trials with positive results.

What is our Infrared Session like?
Your relaxing, private session can be anywhere from 20-30 min depending on how you position yourself and where your area of concern is. (See diagram on the left)
- Arrive for your session 5 minutes early (15 minutes early if first time for paperwork please!) When your room is cleaned and ready, you will be escorted in.
- Your LaVida representative will discuss the session with you and set the parameters of the red light.
- You have room to undress (a bathing suit is recommended); and a robe and towel are provided for you to use in the sauna.
- Enter the sauna and either sit facing the Red Light Tower - or, if you have a particular area of concern, you may stand and position yourself so that the area is closest to the Tower.
- You can press the power button on the Red Light Bar when you are ready. The max time this unit will deliver light therapy is 30 minutes.
- When your session ends, exit the sauna and dry off before dressin. You will check out at the front desk where you can rehydrate and book your next session!
Who should NOT Red Light Therapy?
Red light therapy appears to be safe and is not associated with any side effects, at least if used short-term and as directed. This therapy is not toxic, not invasive and not as harsh as some topical skin treatments. Unlike the cancer-causing ultraviolet (UV) light from the sun or tanning booths, RLT doesn’t use this type of light.
Seek permission from your doctor prior to use for the following:
- Have a history of skin cancer or eye disease
- Under 12 or over 65 years of age
Red Light therapy is contraindicated for people with following conditions:
- Have Diabetes or other diseases that involve the retina of the eye
- Take medications that increase their skin or eye sensitivity
How many sessions will I need?
While some use a session every day, it will depend on how you are looking to use Red Light Therapy.
For example; You may want to use red light therapy before and after a training session or marathon to boost performance or speed up recovery. If you are looking for skin improvement, you may want to go several days in a week until you are achieve the results you are looking for, then go weekly for maintenance. We would be happy to discuss your goals and help design a schedule best for you!
