Has anyone tried red light therapy
Like most of us, I’ve tried various treatments to no avail. Has anyone tried red light therapy? My symptoms involve numbness from the knees down and some weakness in my hands.

Thanks
Are you using the Red Rush 400 for the Degenerative Discs?
Exactly how do you postion it relative to your lower back......parallel
to the lower bacK and 6 or so inches away?
Sitting., Standing Lying?
What are the settings you use on the machine?
@soby
Yes, I use it parallel to my back and stand or sit in front of it. It comes with a pulley so you can put a hook on the wall and raise it or lower it depending on which part of the body you need therapy. The red light is preset so you only need to push it on, and the NIR (near infrared) I used the 1st pulsing mode which was supposed to be relaxing. I would stand about 8” from the device for 10 minutes a day. I once had bad pain in my neck that NSAIDs weren’t helping and I used it twice a day for several days and it took care of it! When I bought it I used the discount code ENERGY BLUEPRINT for $100 off. Also there was another code TRUDYREDTHERAPY for the same discount. If you google Red Rush 400 user manual it tells you more about the machine. I have been totally amazed how much it has helped. I’m sure there are other great red light devices out there- but this was recommended by Ari Whitten and Trudy Scott, both of whom I follow. I really bought it last year for the plantar fasciitis but now I use it for my back and neck. It’s a powerful machine so I use it 5 days and then take 2 days off.

I heard about it on a podcast by Ari Whitten (Energy Blueprint) and he gave it a really good recommendation and had a link to order it with a discount code ENERGY BLUEPRINT for $100 off. (That was last year so I don’t know if that code still works). If you google Red Therapy Company they are the ones who sell it. I also follow Trudy Scott and she had a discount code TRUDYREDTHERAPY which also was $100 off. Or just google Red Rush 400 and it should take you right to their website. I found out Trudy Scott (everywomanover29) uses the same machine when she was blogging about redlight therapy and I emailed her to tell her how effective it was for me!

I don’t know if this link will work for Trudy Scott’s blog about red light.

thanks Old Soul....very helpful.
@tessie63 I use The Protocol from a group called The Protocol Works on Facebook. I've used it for about 14 years. It does help my pain levels significantly but it has been slowly progressing.

1 Reaction@lesx R lipoic Acid does help me a lot and has done so for 14 years along with B12 and other nutrients in The Protocol. It is a Facebook group called The Protocol Works.
Thanks. I'll look into R Lipoic Acid and B12 again. Also, I'll see if I can find "The Protocol Works" on Facebook.
