Tips for red light therapy shopping and use
Here are some tips to help you find the best red light therapy treatments and products for at home use:
When you are looking to enjoy red light therapy at home, it is important to be discerning with your purchases. While there are many red light therapy treatments, as well as devices on the market that you can try at home, some are more reliable than others. Read reviews and look for products that have real customer testimonials.
Or, if you are looking for at-home infrared and red light therapy, consider products from a longstanding brand with an excellent reputation in the wellness space, such as Jacuzzi.
Always use products as directed. While experts have deemed red light therapy to be safe, it is vital that at-home red light therapy products are used according to their specific directions and safety instructions.
When purchasing at-home devices, look for a label that states the item is FDA-cleared. According to an article on the American Academy of Dermatology Association website: “This means that the FDA considers that device to pose a low risk to the public. Keep in mind that FDA cleared doesn’t tell you anything about how effective the device is. It means the device is considered safe.”
The article also states to check labels closely and be wary of FDA declarations, such as “FDA approved” or “FDA certified.” The American Academy of Dermatology Association states, “While these terms sound impressive, they have no meaning when used to describe a medical device. The FDA clears devices. It doesn’t approve or certify them.”
If you wish to experience a red light therapy treatment at a salon or wellness center, do some research on the company, make sure you trust them before proceeding with a service, and get a recommendation from a trusted source. For example, if you are looking specifically for red light therapy to address skin issues, ask your dermatologist or health care provider to refer you to a credible company.
When considering the best red light therapy options on the market today, you know you can rely on a trusted and longstanding brand such as Jacuzzi. With a stellar reputation as a leader in the wellness space, Jacuzzi is dedicated to bringing you reliable, high-quality products that help you promote your wellbeing in the comfort of your own home or backyard.
As you continue to explore the best red light therapy options for you, consider a visit to your local spa store. Here, you can speak with a trusted Jacuzzi® Sauna or Hot Tub dealer about these products and how they work. You can also view a selection of high-quality models and discuss financing options.
