Top 10 Reasons to Use Quality Red Light and Near-Infrared Therapy in the Summer-Why your body still needs light even when the sun is shining


When summer rolls around, many people assume they’re getting “enough light.” But sunshine alone doesn't deliver what full-body red light and near-infrared therapy offers, especially when it's high quality, pulsing, and calibrated for deep tissue healing like the pods at The Wellness Center.

Let’s get real: friends don’t let friends use cheap red light. If you're using a panel, mask, or gadget off the internet that isn’t calibrated, or worse, doesn’t even include both red and near-infrared wavelengths, you’re setting yourself up for disappointment.

That’s like pitching a tent in your backyard and pretending it’s a trip to Maui. Sure, it’s outdoors… but it’s not the same. Before you give up on red light therapy, give quality a try.


Here are 10 reasons why using the pods during summer matters, maybe more than ever:


🔟 Top Reasons to Use Full-Body Red Light and Near-Infrared Therapy in Summer:

  • 1. Repair UV Damage Before It Shows Red light helps calm inflammation and supports skin cell repair after sun exposure, protecting your glow instead of sacrificing it.

  • 2. Boost Collagen and Maintain Skin Elasticity Sun can dehydrate and age your skin. Red light keeps your collagen production going strong so you stay radiant, not wrinkled.

  • 3. Improve Sleep Despite Longer Days Summer light patterns can mess with your circadian rhythm. Red light helps regulate melatonin naturally for deeper, consistent rest.

  • 4. Soothe Overheated Joints and Muscles Whether you're hiking, biking, or working in the yard, the pods reduce inflammation and speed up recovery without ice packs or pain pills.

  • 5. Enhance Mood During Overstimulating Months Summer’s social pace can be overwhelming. Red and near-infrared light calm the nervous system and support serotonin balance.

  • 6. Rehydrate Energy Systems Sun drains your energy in a different way than red light. Pods recharge mitochondria, the battery packs of your cells, for deeper energy reserves.

  • 7. Reduce Oxidative Stress from Environmental Exposure Pollution, allergens, and chemicals are all higher in summer. Red light therapy strengthens your cellular defense system.

  • 8. Calm Skin Irritations Like Rashes or Bug Bites The anti-inflammatory properties of the pods can reduce itching, swelling, and redness from those summer skin annoyances.

  • 9. Protect Brain Health During Heat Stress Summer heat can increase brain inflammation and fatigue. Near-infrared light penetrates the skull and supports neuroprotection and clarity.

  • 10. Keep Your Wellness Routine Consistent Summer is when routines fall apart. The pods are a fast, effective reset button for your body and mind, keeping you grounded and glowing.


Don’t Be Fooled by Knock-Offs

Just like you wouldn’t trust a dollar-store sunscreen, don’t settle for untested light panels or gimmicks. Real healing comes from precision. If it doesn’t have both red and near-infrared, if it isn’t pulsing, or if it isn’t calibrated to penetrate, then it’s like tanning through a window. You’re not getting what you think.


So if you’ve tried red light and didn’t notice results…Try quality before giving up. You might just experience the breakthrough your body’s been waiting for.

And remember: friends don’t let friends use cheap red light.
