My Red Light Therapy Journey: A Deep Dive into Healing Wavelengths
“Beneath the glow of crimson light,
Healing waves shine soft yet bright.
Circulation flows, the pain retreats,
Cells awaken in warmth so sweet.
A biohacker’s silent, glowing space,
Where light and wellness interlace.”
Discovering Red Light Therapy: A Natural Wellness Evolution
As we grow older, our mindfulness around health and wellness naturally evolves. I’ve always been eager to explore biohacking practices like cold exposure (ice bathing), nutrient-rich meals, and holistic healing methods—which led me to red light therapy (RLT).
When I first stumbled upon the concept of "healthy wavelength exposure," I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect. But after incorporating consistent red light therapy sessions into my routine, I quickly realized its potential for pain relief, skin health, and overall well-being.
If you’re in Rogaland, Norway, and want to experience it for yourself, I highly recommend Rød Lys Terapi in Hommersåk. I visit 5-7 times a week for 20-minute sessions, and I can honestly say—it’s one of my favorite self-care rituals!
“Golden moments in a ruby hue,
A gentle warmth, a world anew.
Soft waves dance upon my skin,
Healing starts from deep within.
A daily ritual, calm and free,
A light-filled pause, just for me.”
My Go-To Red Light Panel: PlatinumLED Biomax 900
“A quiet space, a healing beam,
Waves of warmth, a gentle stream.
Tension fades, the body sighs,
As light restores and softly ties.
A simple pause, a moment free,
Just me, the light, and clarity.”
Red light therapy is a non-invasive, science-backed treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light to penetrate the skin, muscles, and joints, promoting cellular repair and regeneration. But not all red light wavelengths are equal—some go deeper than others, delivering unique benefits.
Key Red and Near-Infrared (NIR) Wavelengths Explained:
✅ 630nm & 650nm – Surface-level penetration, great for skin health, collagen production, and wound healing.
✅ 810nm – A special near-infrared (NIR) wavelength that reaches deeper into soft tissues, promoting nerve repair and cognitive function.
✅ 830nm & 850nm – These deep-penetrating NIR wavelengths target muscle recovery, joint pain, inflammation, and bone healing.
From my personal experience, I’ve found that regular exposure to these wavelengths has noticeably reduced my pain levels, especially in my chronic tennis elbow and fractured ankle (which is still healing).
Why I Love the PlatinumLED Biomax 900 Red Light Panel
At Rød Lys Terapi, I’ve tested different therapy lights, but PlatinumLED Biomax 900 is by far my favorite. This high-performance red light therapy panel is known for its:
🔥 Full-spectrum red & NIR light combination (630, 650, 810, 830, 850nm)
🔥 Powerful irradiance for deeper penetration
🔥 Award-winning status (voted Best Red Light Panel 2024 by Alex Fergus)
🔥 Includes 2% blue light for additional benefits
Why Blue Light Matters (Even in Red Light Therapy!)
Unlike red and NIR light, blue light (typically 400-480nm) doesn’t penetrate as deeply, but it plays a vital role in:
💙 Killing bacteria (great for acne and skin health)
💙 Regulating circadian rhythms (helps balance sleep cycles when used correctly)
💙 Enhancing mood and energy levels
While blue light exposure at night (like from screens) can disrupt sleep, in small, controlled amounts, it can support skin health and overall vitality.
Experiencing Red Light Therapy at Rød Lys Terapi in Hommersåk
One of the things I love most about Rød Lys Terapi is how simple and convenient the process is:
✔ Automated entry via the Boost System app
✔ Clean, well-maintained facility with essential oils, wipes, and sanitation sprays
✔ Three different therapy rooms with various light settings
When I first visited, I was warmly welcomed by Elin, the accommodating owner, who made the experience even better. The customer service is top-notch, and the facility’s setup allows for privacy and ease of use—perfect for regular therapy sessions.
“A quiet space, so warm and bright,
Open doors invite the light.
Soft wood floors and peaceful air,
A place to rest, renew, and care.
Step inside, let worries cease,
Find your moment, breathe in peace”
My Personal Results: Pain Relief, Recovery & Glowing Skin
“A door that welcomes, calm and bright,
A space for healing, bathed in light.
Step inside, let tension cease,
Find renewal, warmth, and peace.
With glowing rays, the body mends,
A journey of light, where wellness blends”
After nearly two months of consistent sessions, here’s what I’ve personally noticed:
✨ Pain Reduction – My tennis elbow and recovering ankle fracture feel significantly less stiff and sore.
✨ Improved Skin Texture – My skin feels softer, smoother, and more hydrated—hello, collagen boost!
✨ Relaxation & Well-Being – Each session leaves me feeling energized yet calm, almost like a post-meditation effect.
Of course, red light therapy isn’t a miracle cure—healing takes consistency and patience. That’s why I combine it with collagen supplements and ice baths to enhance the effects. But even without expecting instant results, I can confidently say I love this routine and how it makes me feel.
