RED LIGHT THERAPY FOR FAT LOSS – FAQs
How does red light therapy help me lose fat?
Red light therapy uses specific wavelengths of light that penetrate fat cells and cause them to release stored fat, similar to how a grape shrinks into a raisin.
How much fat or how many inches can I expect to lose?
Many patients lose between 2 and 10+ inches in total circumference across multiple areas, even after just one session.
Is red light therapy safe?
Yes. It’s FDA-cleared, non-invasive, and completely safe. There’s no pain, no downtime, and no risk of burning or tissue damage.
Does it hurt?
Not at all. The therapy is gentle, warm, and completely painless. Most patients find it deeply relaxing.
How many sessions will I need?
Most patients benefit from a program that spans 4 to 16 weeks, depending on individual goals. Results are cumulative and improve over time.
How long is each red light session?
Each red light session lasts approximately 10 minutes, followed by an additional 10 minutes on a vibration plate to flush out the fat that has been released by the treatment.
How often do I need to come in for fat loss sessions?
Twice per week is ideal for best results. We recommend consistent visits during the active phase of treatment.
Is the fat loss permanent?
Yes—the fat that’s released is eliminated by your lymphatic system. As long as you maintain healthy habits, the results can be permanent.
What areas of the body can be treated with red light therapy?
Common areas include the abdomen, arms, thighs, back, hips, and chin. Most patients treat multiple areas during their sessions.
Can I just do one session to see if it works?
Yes! We offer a $49 introductory session. Many patients lose 1 to 3 inches after just one visit.
What should I wear to my red light appointment?
Wear comfortable clothing. For the actual session, you will fully undress in a private, locked room. We provide pads and towels to cover any areas you wish.
Do I need to change my diet or exercise?
While not required, clean eating and light exercise—including the use of the vibration plate after treatment—can significantly enhance your results.
What makes your red light therapy different from others?
We use the Pinnacle Dahlia Bed, a top-tier medical-grade device that requires a healthcare license to own. It is far more powerful and effective than spa or salon units.
What happens to the fat once it leaves the cells?
The released fat is processed through your lymphatic system and eliminated naturally. That’s why hydration and post-treatment movement are important.
Are there any side effects or risks?
There are no known side effects. It’s completely non-invasive and safe for all skin types and ages.
INFRARED THERAPY FOR PAIN REDUCTION – FAQs
What is infrared therapy and how does it relieve pain?
Infrared therapy uses light waves that penetrate deeply into tissue, increasing blood flow, reducing inflammation, and stimulating healing.
What conditions do you treat with infrared therapy?
Conditions include low back pain, neck pain, arthritis, joint pain, shoulder and hip pain, sciatica, nerve pain, and general inflammation.
Is this therapy covered by insurance?
Yes. Infrared therapy for pain relief is often covered under insurance when medically necessary and prescribed as part of a treatment plan.
Does infrared therapy feel hot or uncomfortable?
Not at all. Patients feel a mild, soothing warmth. You remain clothed during treatment, and it’s conducted in a comfortable setting.
How long is each infrared session?
Sessions typically last 10 minutes per area, and you may be treated on multiple areas depending on your condition.
How quickly will I feel results?
Many patients report noticeable relief after just one session. Most feel dramatic improvement within 1 to 3 visits.
Is infrared therapy safe for long-term use?
Yes. It is safe for continued and repeated use, and has no long-term side effects or risks.
Can I receive infrared therapy with a pacemaker or implants?
Patients with pacemakers cannot receive this therapy due to electromagnetic sensitivity. However, implants are safe, and care can proceed normally.
Does it help with inflammation and circulation?
Yes. Infrared therapy flushes out inflammatory chemicals, boosts oxygen-rich blood flow, and stimulates healing factors in the treated area.
How often should I receive infrared therapy for pain?
The standard frequency is three times per week, especially in the first few weeks of care for fast and effective pain relief.
GENERAL & COMBINATION QUESTIONS
Can I do red light and infrared therapy on the same day?
Absolutely. Many patients choose to combine fat loss and pain relief treatments during a single visit.
