Feel Better. Sleep Deeper. Think Clearer

Red and infrared light therapy does penetrate clothes.  It is recommended to wear light and breathable fabrics, choose lighter colors and shades, such as white or light grey.   Avoid thick materials, dark colors, and shiny fabrics, depending on the type of fabric, the light scatters or absorbs to some degree, reducing the therapeutic effects of the therapy. Factors, such as the fabric’s color, stretch, and moisture level, may also come into play. These elements will work together to determine how far the light penetrates.

For deep light penetration, it’s best to apply the light directly to your skin for optimal results.

Yes, Red Light is safe for eyes, in fact, research on red light therapy (RLT) shows promising findings for treating eye diseases.

Red Light’s ability to improve cellular energy production, reduce oxidative stress, and modulate inflammatory responses could also positively benefit your eyes.  We are not offering a recommendation; rather, talk with your doctor on your specific issues and red light therapy impact and recommendation.

However, for the comfort and convenience of our clients, Texas Wellness provides eye protection for use during your session.

Tips: Drink 16oz of water before your session to help flush the system.  RLT increases metabolic activity, your cells will produce more “waste” as they generate energy. Add a pinch of sea salt (electrolytes) before your session to help the “flushing” of inflammatory byproducts.

For optimal success in reducing fatigue, use the bed within 2 hours of waking up is best for circadian fatigue. It mimics the sunrise and signals your body to stop producing melatonin and start producing cortisol and energy.

Anxiety often comes with sensory overstimulation. Turn off the overhead lights, use the red glow of the bed, and wear earplugs or listen to “Pink Noise” or “Theta Waves” during your session

For improved results focused on gut-health, lie on your stomach to maximize results for gut health

Wound Protection:  DO NOT USE RED LIGHT BED if  the wound is hot to the touch, oozing yellow/green fluid, or you see red streaks.

While most people think of Red Light Therapy (RLT)—or more specifically, Photobiomodulation (PBM)—for skin or muscle recovery, its effects on the brain are gaining serious traction in clinical research.

1. Boosting “Brain Power” (Mitochondrial Function) – At its core, RLT is like a charger for your cells.  The light penetrates the skull and is absorbed by cytochrome c oxidase, an enzyme in your mitochondria.
2. Reducing Neuroinflammation- Chronic inflammation in the brain is a major “hidden” driver of both anxiety and depression.
3. Increasing Blood Flow – Near-infrared light can stimulate the release of nitric oxide, which dilates blood vessels (vasodilation)
4. Neuroplasticity and Neurogenesis – RLT may stimulate the production of BDNF (Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor)

When it comes to frequency, the “sweet spot” for red light therapy (RLT) is actually about finding a balance.  Unlike a cup of coffee where more might mean more energy, RLT follows a biphasic dose response—meaning if you do too much, the benefits can actually start to disappear.

1. Initial Phase (First 2–4 weeks): 3 to 5 sessions per week.
2. Maintenance Phase: 2 to 3 sessions per week.
3. Session Duration: 10 to 20 minutes per session.
