🌟 Red Light Therapy (RLT) at Healing Connections

At Healing Connections, we recognize that trauma is not only held in the mind, but also deeply within the body. Red Light Therapy (RLT) is a gentle, non-invasive treatment that supports healing on a cellular level while calming the nervous system. It offers a restorative way to help the body release stress, reduce pain, and create a stronger foundation for recovery.

RLT uses safe, low-level red and near-infrared light that penetrates into the body’s tissues, stimulating circulation and cellular repair. This process can reduce inflammation, ease muscle tension, and support overall resilience. Many individuals find that it helps with chronic pain, headaches, and the physical aftereffects of trauma. It can also improve sleep, lift mood, and enhance the body’s natural ability to heal from the inside out.

Sessions are designed to be calming and restorative. You will be seated or lying down comfortably while light panels gently deliver targeted wavelengths. There is no pain or invasive procedure — only soothing warmth and the opportunity for your body to reset and recharge.

We offer Red Light Therapy as a complementary support alongside trauma-focused psychotherapy. While it is not a replacement for therapy, it can be a powerful ally in the healing journey, helping to regulate the nervous system and reduce the physical burden of stress and trauma.

✨ Red Light Therapy at Healing Connections is here to support your whole-person wellness — mind, body, and nervous system.
