Frequently Asked Questions

Red light therapy works by using specific wavelengths of red or near-infrared light to penetrate the skin and stimulate cells. This light energy is absorbed by the mitochondria, the powerhouses of cells, which can enhance their ability to produce ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the energy needed for cellular functions. This boost in cellular energy helps to promote healing, reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and support tissue repair.

At Magnolia Wellness, we use LED red light therapy (RLT) with therapeutic wavelengths that are safe and effective for your wellness goals. Unlike harmful UV light, the wavelengths in our devices are specifically engineered to promote healing and restoration.
Originally developed by NASA, red light therapy has been used successfully in medical and therapeutic settings for decades. While there are no known contraindications for LED red light therapy, we still recommend consulting with your doctor to ensure it’s the right fit for your individual needs. Your health and safety are always our top priority.

Always consult a healthcare provider before starting BEMER therapy, especially if you have chronic conditions or are taking medications.
Absolute Contraindications:
Pregnancy: While not universally contraindicated, BEMER therapy is often avoided during pregnancy as a precautionary measure due to limited research.
Active Implanted Medical Devices: Individuals with pacemakers, defibrillators, or other active implants may experience interference with the device.
Uncontrolled Seizure Disorders: The electromagnetic fields might potentially provoke seizures in sensitive individuals.
Active Bleeding Disorders: BEMER therapy can improve microcirculation, which might exacerbate active bleeding.
Acute Infections: Its use may potentially worsen acute infections by stimulating circulation.
Relative Contraindications (Use with Caution):
Cancer: While there is no evidence that BEMER therapy promotes tumor growth, its use in individuals undergoing cancer treatment is controversial and should be guided by a healthcare provider.
Organ Transplants: Enhanced circulation might affect immunosuppressive therapy, so consultation with a specialist is recommended.
Severe Arrhythmias: The therapy might theoretically interfere with electrical activity in the heart.
Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT): Improved circulation could risk dislodging a clot.
Metal Implants: Although BEMER therapy typically doesn't interfere with inert metal implants (like screws or plates), its use should be cleared by a physician.
