Can you take a red light bath every day?
Red light baths have already become a highly recommended way of relaxation and health care. However, can one take red light baths every day? And does it mean that the more frequently and for a longer duration one takes red light baths, the better the results will be?
Can one take red light baths every day? Generally speaking, it is allowed to take red light baths every day, with an interval of 4 hours between each session.
The benefits of red light baths are as follows:
- It accelerates metabolism, promotes the generation of new cells, and speeds up the healing of wounds.
- It can promptly eliminate waste toxins in the body, maintaining a good physical condition.
- It promotes digestion, and a fast metabolism makes the skin better.
- It promotes the secretion of growth hormones in the body, facilitating bone growth.
- It helps burn fat and aids in weight loss.
- It decomposes aging cells and replaces them with normal cells, delaying the aging process.
The reason for not sweating during a red light bath may be due to poor metabolism in the body or a deficiency of yin fluid in the body. Slow sweating or sweating less may be because the sweat glands have not yet opened, which often occurs to those taking a red light bath for the first time.
People with underdeveloped sweat glands, a cold constitution, qi and blood deficiency, or heavy dampness in the body will also sweat more slowly. Taking it a few more times will gradually improve the situation. Of course, another reason is that the ambient temperature is too low and the body has not absorbed enough heat, so enclosing the area well is important. There should be no gaps at the top.

The red light bath is only glaring for an instant when it is just turned on. The closer the eyes are to the device, the less glaring it will be.
-
First, irradiate the front side of the body. Do not wear any clothes. Try to get the body as close to the device as possible without touching it, and relax the whole body.
-
For the best effect, keep the face about 3 - 5 centimeters away from the device and close the eyes gently. After about 5 - 10 minutes, the pores on the facial skin may start to itch or sweating may occur. This means that the sweat glands have been opened. Especially for women, if there is makeup on the facial pores, this is a process of detoxification. Therefore, it is recommended to take a red light bath after washing the face for better results. If you keep doing this for a period of time, the facial skin will become more delicate and smooth.

During the red light bath, sweating usually starts at 8 - 12 minutes. Do not wipe the sweat. You can move your hands freely and let the sweat drip onto the disposable towel placed under your feet. You can also gently pat the areas under the armpits that are difficult to be irradiated during the red light bath.
-
After fifteen minutes, turn around. At this time, you can open your eyes and you can play with your mobile phone. Of course, it is recommended not to do so. Although red light has the effect of preventing myopia for the eyes, using the eyes under strong light will inevitably make the eyes feel sour and astringent.
-
After 20 minutes of the red light bath, if you need to take photos for checking in, you can take pictures of your arms, but do not take pictures of the body.
-
After 30 minutes of the red light bath, when it ends, dry your face with a disposable towel and then dry your body from top to bottom. You will not feel uncomfortable because you haven't taken a bath. Instead, you will feel refreshed all over the body. Because the sweat excreted is not sticky or greasy. It is also not advisable to take a bath within 45 minutes after sweating profusely, as this will make the body weaker instead.
