Autoimmune conditions require a thoughtful, individualized approach. One thing some people may experience when starting red light therapy is a temporary worsening of symptoms, sometimes referred to as the “Herxheimer” or “herxing” effect.
✨
As red light stimulates mitochondrial activity and cellular function, it can mobilize stored toxins, aggravate underlying infections, or stir up inflammatory byproducts. For systems that are already under stress, this may temporarily feel like a flare-up.
✨
To help minimize this response, proper dosing, intensity, and pulsation of the light are essential. This is where experience and clinical knowledge truly matter.
✨
At Wellful Body, we’ve been providing red light therapies for over 10 years, long before it became widely known or trendy. We take pride in delivering the highest level of care through both our expertise and the technology we use: medical grade devices that are FDA approved and certified by Health Canada, designed to deliver therapeutic results when used correctly.
✨
If you or someone you know struggles with an autoimmune condition, consider booking a consultation to see if this therapy may be a good fit. Join the many clients we support every day in improving their health and enhancing their quality of life.
