LED Light Therapy in Boulder

Red Light Therapy – Personal Results & Supporting Research Written after one session at The Light Lounge, Boulder I recently tried red light therapy (also called photobiomodulation) at The Light Lounge in Boulder and was surprised by how much better I felt afterward. After just one session, I noticed a clear reduction in pain in both my neck (specifically in the cervical facet joints) and my knees. Before the session, I had been going down my stairs at an angle to ease the pressure on my knees. Afterward the light therapy, I was able to walk down the steps straight on, without discomfort. Which felt huge. I tend to be skeptical of new wellness trends, especially ones that promise wide-ranging benefits. I started reading up on the science behind it. Red light therapy works by using specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light (usually between 630nm and 850nm) that penetrate the skin and interact with the mitochondria in our cells. This process helps boost cellular energy (ATP), reduce oxidative stress, and trigger anti-inflammatory effects in the body. Here are a few research findings that stood out: • A 2009 meta-analysis in The Lancet found that low-level light therapy significantly reduced pain in people with chronic neck pain across several randomized trials. • A 2014 RCT published in Lasers in Medical Science showed improved knee function and reduced pain in osteoarthritis patients who received red light therapy. • A 2017 review in Pain Research and Management explained how red light therapy reduces inflammation and helps heal soft tissue and joint structures. I know more research is still unfolding—especially around ideal treatment plans and long-term results—my own short-term experience was meaningful enough that I’ve decided to sign up for their 3-month membership to give it a fair shot. If you’re dealing with chronic joint pain or stiffness, it might be worth looking into. At the very least, it gave me noticeable relief without meds or side effects, and that alone makes it worth exploring further.

Relaxed. Swelling went down Have you ever bit your cheek? Well mine was hurting. Hurting bad. It had been several days and it wasn’t getting better. Dentist? Doctor, I thought? Urgent care? Frankly I don’t like the co-pay, I don’t like the wait. The drugs. What about the Lightlounge? I remembered an “inflammation “ setting on the pod last time I was in. The right side of my face was visibly swollen and there was a pain under my right jaw day and night. I checked my app. There was an opening that morning, and I decided that it might help my pain to squeeze in a quick session. (For some reason, I usually fall asleep when I get in the pod. Does that ever happen to any of you?) I felt myself waking up twice during my 15 minute session. My toe tapped against the shell to shake me awake the first time. I realized that the red lasers were still on, and was happy to be able to return to my dream. The second time I woke, I felt like I had been in there for quite some time – like I had taken a well-deserved nap on a rainy afternoon. But it was 10:30am, and I needed to get back to the office. Worried that the timer might have malfunctioned, I pushed the shell up to open the pod. (The lights were all still on, but it wasn’t hot.) I stood and walked around to the screen. It showed that the “inflamation” program was still running. Then about three seconds later, it shut down, the red lights went off, and the room was silent again. I smiled; beside myself that I’d awakened almost exactly at the end of my therapy. What a power nap, I thought! My next sensation was that…as I opened and shut my mouth, wiggling my tongue from side-to-side,...my mouth felt a lot better! It was as if the pain and swelling that was there around my cheek, had somehow drained down and away when I emerged from the pod and stood upright. That did NOT happen this morning, after a mediocre night’s sleep. But it DID…just now after one dream, fifteen minutes on my back, and a feeling of restful awakening??!! Thank you!

I had bone on bone osteoarthritis in my hip. I tried everything from PT, dry, needling, massage, and stretching, and nothing would work. I saw a Facebook post about the Light Lounge get out of pain three weeks later I felt so much better now it’s been six months later and I feel amazing. I’m back to my old life. Thank you, Light Lounge. Absolutely, the best light therapy pod on the market.

This red light therapy experience was one of the best I’ve ever had! The environment was clean and welcoming. Would recommend!

PLEASE MAKE SURE MY LAST NAME IS CHANGED TO JUST M. I was dealing with systemic inflammation that was quite bad. This began to change after a couple of months and now I can safely say it is now under control. I attribute this to my sessions in the Light Pod. The folks there are great and the place is calm and clean. I am grateful to have found Light Lounge.
