What Our Patients Are Saying
Shawn at Fix Medical Group made my first chiropractic experience absolutely incredible. His approach completely put me at ease. During his analysis and information gathering portion of the appointment, his attention to detail was incredible. He listened, asked great questions and was able to draw some crucial additional pieces of information out of me that I didn’t think pertained (but they did). He made sure I understood what he thought the problem was and we are in the process of creating a game plan to fix it. I’m a 30yr old avid CrossFitter and hiker and have had chronic low back pain for years. After the first appointment, I felt the best I have felt in 10 years. I can’t wait to continue to work with Shawn and his team. I would give Shawn and Fix Medical 6 stars if I could. Great experience!! Definitely will go back.
I first learned about Dr. Shawn Robek, from Sue Falsone at a Perform Better Seminar. She highly recommended Dr Shawn and said he would be able to help. I had a total knee reconstruction of my left knee, all new ligaments. I was about a year out when we first met and I was in constant pain, with every step I took. I wasn’t able to flex my quad due to severe muscle atrophy and I thought I would never squat again. I just finished my 12th session with him and I’m squatting, lunging, jumping and walking with no pain! I worked really hard inside his gym and did the homework as he requested. We built a friendship that will last forever ! Thank you, Dr Shawn, for being you! May God continue to bless you and your business!
Everybody that I have met that works here is great! I’ve been to several doctors over the last few months, and I am actually scheduled to have eight-disc fusion surgery in June, but I have had 3 sessions with Shawn and he really knows the human body. He is aggressive in his treatment, but he knows what he’s doing, and I am so glad that I started seeing him. Before I couldn’t even walk my dog to the mailbox without my sciatica really killing me, but today after my appointment with Shawn, I could walk to the mailbox without my leg bothering me at all. So, then I walked another mile, which is big for me. Normally I can’t walk more than a couple hundred feet without my sciatica killing me because of the curve in my back. I’m glad I found these guys and I will continue my treatment with them.
Frequently Asked Questions
About Red Light Therapy
What is Red Light Therapy?
Manipulates specific wavelengths of light in treating skin-related problems and other medical conditions. In the process, it emits red or near-infrared light, which can be transmitted through the skin of a human being into the bloodstream. This will enhance cellular repair and increase blood circulation, among other effects. This RLT has been helpful in improving skin health, reducing inflammation, and offering support in pain alleviation for various diseases.
How does Red Light Therapy work?
Red Light Therapy delivers concentrated and safe wavelengths of natural light into your skin, where they become absorbed by your cells. This boosts collagen production, enhances one’s circulation, and produces energy at the cellular level. These effects can go a long way in repairing damaged cells, thus increasing body healing capabilities. Among the benefits expected from RLT through regular sessions are improved texture of the skin, reduced pain, and an energy boost
What are the benefits of Red Light Therapy?
The benefits of red light therapy are extensive, ranging from enhanced skin appearance to deep tissue repair. It improves skin clarity, tone, and texture, effectively reducing inflammation and pain in conditions like arthritis. It also accelerates post-exercise recovery by reducing muscle fatigue and soreness, boosts blood flow to treated areas for faster healing, and reduces wrinkles and signs of aging by enhancing collagen production. These multifaceted benefits make RLT a valuable addition to any health regimen.
Are there any side effects of Red Light Therapy?
Generally, red light therapy is considered safe and is non-invasive when used correctly, as users have reported no side effects. The red light from the treatment does not burn or cause damage to your skin, unlike UV light from directly being in the sun. This should be used under professional discretion to ensure appropriate dosage and duration of treatment for optimal results. Tailor this by consulting with a healthcare professional for your needs.
How often should I undergo Red Light Therapy?
How often one might do red light therapy depends on the specific health needs and conditions being treated. For instance, in most skin conditions and on anti-aging, treatments may be prescribed two to three times a week, while for pain management, more frequent sessions could be of help. Consultation with a healthcare professional helps tailor a treatment plan most appropriate for your case to drive results. The importance of adhering to the recommended schedule cannot be overemphasized since regular sessions offer cumulative benefits.
Is 10 minutes of red light therapy enough?
Yes, 10 minutes of red light therapy can be effective, depending on the device’s intensity and the condition being treated. For most at-home devices, sessions typically range from 10 to 20 minutes. However, professional-grade devices may require shorter sessions due to their higher power output. Always follow the manufacturer’s guidelines for optimal results.
What does your face look like after red light therapy?
After red light therapy, your face may appear slightly flushed or feel warm due to increased blood circulation. There’s no downtime, and your skin often looks refreshed and glowing. Over time, with consistent use, you may notice reduced redness, smoother texture, and fewer fine lines or wrinkles.
Who should not use red light therapy?
Red light therapy is generally safe, but it may not be suitable for individuals with photosensitivity, certain skin conditions like lupus, or those taking medications that increase light sensitivity. Pregnant women and people with active cancer should consult a healthcare provider before using RLT to ensure safety.
How long does it take to see results on the face?
Results vary, but most people notice improvements in skin texture and tone within 2-4 weeks of consistent use. For more significant changes, such as reduced wrinkles or acne scars, it may take 8-12 weeks. Regular sessions (2-5 times per week) are key to achieving visible results.
Does red light reduce puffy face?
Yes, red light therapy can help reduce facial puffiness by improving circulation and reducing inflammation. It stimulates lymphatic drainage, which helps remove excess fluid and toxins. While results may vary, consistent use can lead to a more contoured and less puffy appearance over time.
