Show Notes

Dr. Rountree and Kristi discuss a 2012 study on red light therapy and its effect on athletes' sleep quality and endurance performance. They take a look at the dosage, wavelengths used, factors that may have tainted the results, and the outcomes of the study. Is full-body photobiomodulation really as effective as targeted light and laser therapy treatments? Can a light therapy bed benefit your patients? Can this be profitable for your clinic?
