Discover the Wonders of Red Light Therapy

There are moments during my red light sessions when the room goes quiet and I swear I can feel my mom with me. Not in a dramatic, movie-scene way — but in the subtle, familiar way she always showed up in my life. A presence. A warmth. A knowing. Sometimes it's like she’s sitting right beside me, legs crossed, giving me that classic “I’m not saying anything but I’m totally saying everything with my eyebrows” look. Sometimes I hear her voice in my head — the encouragement, the

I’ll be the first to say it: red light therapy doesn’t mend a broken heart — at least not in the way people imagine. It doesn’t erase memories, silence the grief, or magically make the holidays easier. That kind of healing is sacred, slow, and very human. But what PBM has  become for me…is a calm, warm, non-judgmental space where my body can settle, my emotions can breathe, and my nervous system can catch up to the reality of my life. I didn’t expect that. Not at all. ✨ It c

My mom loved the holidays in that classic “I’m not doing anything special” way — while somehow making everything magical. She loved the twinkle lights, the smell of fresh baking, the warmth of people gathering. She loved the chaos too, even though she’d roll her eyes at it. If something burned, if someone was late, if wrapping paper ended up everywhere… she secretly thrived in it. And this year… she’s not here. And that absence is loud. Grief doesn’t march in with a megaphon

December hits differently after you lose someone you love. The lights are brighter, the music is louder, the decorations seem extra… extra. But inside? Everything feels a little softer, a little heavier, a little dimmer — like your heart is moving through the month with the lights turned down low. The holidays have their own rhythm: the gatherings, the traditions, the sparkle everywhere you look. But when grief enters the room, it changes the beat. Suddenly, the sounds o

Let’s talk about a hot topic. Literally. I hear it all the time: “Oh yeah, I’ve done red light therapy — I sat in an infrared sauna once.” 🙃 Deep breath. While both experiences involve warmth and light, saying they’re the same is like saying a steam room and a laser facial are interchangeable. They’re not. So let’s break it down — with love, truth, and a healthy dose of CELLebrate sass. 🔥 First, What’s an Infrared Sauna? An infrared sauna uses far-infrared wavelengths  (mos

Let’s get this one out of the way, shall we? “Isn’t red light therapy just for pro athletes and Hollywood types?” You know — people with private chefs, personal cryo chambers, and collagen smoothies flown in from a sacred mountain in Peru? NOPE. Let me say it louder for the folks in the back: Red light therapy is for everyone with cells . 🧠 Where the Myth Comes From Yes, red light therapy has been seen all over: NFL locker rooms Biohacker podcasts Skincare commercials with a

I need to say this loud and clear: Not all red light is created equal. And if you take one thing from this post, let it be this: Your healing deserves better than a light bulb from a hardware store. 🧠 The Big Misconception There’s a growing wave of people buying basic red light lamps, plugging them in beside their bed, and assuming they’re getting the same benefits as clinical-grade photobiomodulation (PBM). I get it — the word “light”  makes it sound simple.But the truth?

“I didn’t feel anything. Is that… bad?” This is hands-down one of the most common questions I hear from first-timers. And I get it. We live in a world of instant feedback — push a button, get a notification. Sip a coffee, get a jolt. Watch a sad movie, cry your face off. 😭 So naturally, when you lie down under a red light panel and don’t feel your body levitate or hear angelic harps… you wonder: “Wait. Is anything even happening?” Short answer? YES. Longer answer? Heck yes —

“Isn’t that just a trend?” I’ve been asked this more times than I’ve accidentally worn mismatched socks to the studio (and that’s saying something). And look — I get it. Red Light Therapy (or Photobiomodulation  if you’re feeling fancy) is suddenly everywhere . You’ve seen it in spas, on TikTok, and probably in a celebrity’s basement gym. It’s glowing (literally) in Instagram stories and lighting up magazine headlines like it just discovered fire. But here’s what most people

“Wait… is this going to tan me?” I hear this at least once a week. Usually followed by a hopeful glance and someone mentally packing their bags for Cabo. Let’s get this straight: Red Light Therapy is NOT a tanning bed. There are no UV rays. No bronzing. No sizzling.You will not come out looking like a glazed holiday ham. 🐷✨ 🔥 The Quick & Nerdy Breakdown: Tanning Bed Red Light Therapy Uses UV light  (bad for skin) Uses red & near-infrared light  (good for cells) Burns the t

I didn’t start CELLebrate Light just to sell machines.I started it because I believe in what light can do — when people actually understand it. You see, red light therapy isn’t just a service we offer. It’s a technology that has completely shifted how I think about healing, energy, recovery, and even aging . But despite its science, success stories, and global rise in clinics and homes… there’s still a cloud of confusion  floating around it. So I’m here, armed with passion an

So, I started a blog.Why? Because apparently “talking about red light therapy to strangers in grocery store lineups” isn’t scalable. 😅 Welcome to Red Light Real Talk  — a space where light meets laughter, science meets sass, and you might learn something about mitochondria and  menopause in the same sentence.
