For body and mind
Taking time for yourself should feel simple. At Lincoln Performance and Recovery Clinic, red-light therapy offers a calm, comfortable session that fits around busy days, training schedules and regular recovery routines.
The treatment exposes your skin to selected wavelengths of red and near-infrared light. You may also hear it called photobiomodulation. It doesn’t involve the ultraviolet light used in tanning beds.
Why people choose red-light therapy
People explore red-light therapy for a variety of reasons, including skin appearance, exercise recovery and muscular or joint discomfort. Others enjoy having a quiet appointment dedicated to their wellbeing.
Research is developing, and findings depend on the condition being studied, the equipment and the dose delivered. We’ll explain our service clearly, without promising the same outcome for everyone.
How often should you visit?
Your routine should reflect your goals, suitability and experience of the sessions. Some clients include red-light therapy in their regular recovery schedule; others start with a small number of appointments before deciding whether to continue.
We’ll explain the recommended schedule for our equipment and review how you’re getting on. More time under the lights doesn’t automatically mean a better result.
What happens during a session?
Before your first appointment, we’ll go through a health screening and explain how to use the equipment, including any eye protection required.
You’ll settle into position while the lights run for the set session time. The experience is generally quiet and comfortable, and you may notice gentle warmth. Your operator will explain what to expect and how to let us know if anything feels uncomfortable.
What to wear and bring
Wear comfortable clothing that allows the area being treated to be exposed to the light. We’ll explain any preparation needed when you book, including guidance on skincare products and eye protection.
Please tell us about any medication you take, any sensitivity to light and any changes to your health before your appointment. This helps us check whether the session is appropriate for you.
A practical approach to recovery
Our Lincoln team brings the same straightforward approach to every service: clear explanations, attentive care and honest expectations. Book red-light therapy on its own, or speak to us about including it alongside other suitable services at the clinic.
