What Is Red Light Therapy, and Is It Like Tanning or a Sauna? | South Edmonton

Red light therapy is a gentle, non-heating light treatment. Here is what it is, what a session is like and how it differs from tanning and infrared saunas.

What is red light therapy?

Red light therapy uses red and near-infrared light to gently shine on the skin. It's non-invasive and relaxing, and people use it for muscle recovery, relaxation and skin glow.

What happens during a red light session?

You relax on the GloMat for a full-body session, or under a facial light, for the booked time. It feels warm and calm, with no downtime afterwards.

Is red light therapy the same as tanning?

No. Red light therapy does not use UV light, so it doesn't tan or burn your skin.

Is red light therapy the same as an infrared sauna?

No. An infrared sauna heats your body, while red light therapy uses specific light wavelengths and only feels gently warm.
