The Common Mistakes Of Red Light Therapy At Home

Red light treatment has existed for a long time, and it has evolved innovatively. Now, it’s easily accessible and available at home, with Its devices allowing for a cost-effective and convenient solution to treat a myriad of conditions. However, red light therapy at home can be complex, with many users making mistakes. Hence, in this blog, Rojo Light Therapy dives into the mistakes to avoid in your routine at home.

Red Light Therapy At Home

Red light therapy is a treatment process that delivers health benefits for your skin, muscle tissue and other conditions. With flexible and user-friendly devices, its benefits can be implemented in your daily routine at home, without the need for specialist facilities. At Rojo, we offer therapy devices in our Refine and ROJO product collections. 

Treatment Inconsistency

For many processes, consistency is the key to success - and red light treatment is no exception here. Inconsistent sessions will often waste your investment and prevent you from receiving the maximum potential benefits. Regular sessions enable the body to adapt and positively respond to red light therapy. 

Session Times

A common mistake is engaging in red light therapy at home for the wrong period of time - too long or too short. Establishing a series of treatments that work best for you is ultimately the key here, with best practices for duration often ranging from 10 to 15 minutes.

Wearing Sunscreen, Clothes, Makeup

The effectiveness of your treatment rests greatly on how receptive your body is to the presence of red light, at the end of the day. Though Near-Infrared Light is capable of stimulating the body without being hindered by garments and clothing coverage in the 600 - 800 nanometer spectrum, forms of red light therapy that work in a higher spectrum has the potential of having a reduced effect where encountering SPF-sunscreen, makeup, or high-fabric density clothing.

Lack Of Hydration

Although drinking water is a simple task, many people do not properly hydrate. Proper hydration helps facilitate the effectiveness of red light therapy. Research and studies suggest that red light therapy prefers hydrated cells due to the higher amounts of energy stored.

Device Sizing

Red light therapy devices have a great range of sizes to select. Thus, it is common for users to purchase the wrong sizing. Different sizes will determine the coverage area and how deep it penetrates into the body tissues. Therefore, define your goals and what you want to treat to find the suitable device size. If a device is either too small or too large, this will not effectively achieve the intended treatment's goals and prevent users from receiving optimal results.

Unrealistic Expectations

Regardless of how promising red light therapy seems, many people tend to have unrealistic expectations. It is critical to understand that this treatment is not a miracle solution to all your conditions. However, it does deliver health benefits with consistent use. Furthermore, the positive results are not immediate. Red light therapy users must have a sense of patience and commitment to achieve the changes. The treatment involves processes of collagen production, cellular stimulus and tissue healing which all take time. Every individual's body reacts differently, which may mean different results being achieved at various times. With progress tracking, you will be able to take notice of the results.

No Proper Consultations

Remember to consult with professionals such as doctors or health care providers to ensure a safe and painless treatment process! For specific individuals such as pregnant women, please consider such risks and consult properly!
