Maybe a long shot, but... Anybody know about red light therapy? Legitimacy? Safety? Any side effects? Assuming no red flags, or from personal experience, particular brands to check out?
I mean, I come to a full stop and all at red lights but are you saying I'm missing out on some kind of therapy? On a more serious note, the wife was doing red light therapy at the cosmetologist office before covid but now she is scheming for a home unit that just looks like a tanning bed with red lights. She swears by it and I'm smart enough to neither complain or disagree.
You get to lock the old lady in a box for a few hours per week, and she volunteers for this? Sign me up. Made me think of this old SNL skit (relevant part is after Chris Rock's opener) very NSFW: https://player.theplatform.com/88b1cf1f-8706-4028-8017-5cfc5a1758da
So, the wife goes to some woowoo quack therapy and she's doing acupuncture and the red light therapy. It's supposed to (per studies and FDA) be good for skin (scar healing, wrinkle mitigation, psoriasis, acne, etc) but also has some artheritis benefits. She's been trying to get me to give it a go for my aches and pains. Not sure if she thinks of this as a cost save or maybe vanity... Or maybe a way to help me with my aches. Maybe a way for her to justify one with the other... Maybe she just thinks I'm looking ragged. Who knows. I did ask my sister (a doctor) about it, no real response... Pretty much inconclusive evidence out there.
ha Ha Ha He He He !!! A sucker is born every day ! I loved the red light helmets for hair loss ! laughed so hard almost creamed my pants
The mind is a powerful thing if it believes what you tell it... my wife goes for skin care and arthritis. For as smart as she is financially I sometimes wonder when I see the closet of past fads if she really would spell gullible to hear if sounds like you're saying giraffe.
Hair growth was another case for the red light, so there is some evidence behind it... I am rather hairy (damn anglo heritage), so that actually was a concern for me.
