What it is

Red light therapy uses a device that gives off red and near-infrared light at low power. It is not a laser and does not burn or tan the skin.

At this clinic it is usually added to a visit for muscles and joints, alongside adjustments or acupuncture.

Who it may help

People with sore muscles or stiff joints
People who want a gentle, no-contact add-on to their visit

Every patient is different. Dr. Hua will tell you after the exam whether this is a good fit for you.

What a session is like

You sit or lie near the light with the area uncovered. Eye protection is provided.

The light runs for about 10 minutes. Most people feel mild warmth or nothing at all.
