What is Red Light Therapy?
Red light therapy uses specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light to support the body at a cellular level. Unlike heat-based treatments, the light itself is the therapy.
At Northpoint Spa, sessions are designed to be simple, relaxing, and noninvasive. You rest comfortably while the light surrounds the body, making it an easy wellness service to add into a regular routine.
No needles. No pressure. No strenuous activity. Just time to relax under the light.
Why Our Red Light Therapy is Different
Not all red light therapy systems are created equal. At Northpoint Spa, we use professional PlatinumLED red and near-infrared light therapy designed to deliver multiple wavelengths of light across a large treatment area.
Compared with small consumer devices, professional full-body panels provide broader coverage and a more consistent treatment experience, allowing more of the body to be exposed to therapeutic wavelengths at the same time.
Professional full-body coverage
Designed to treat a much larger area than handheld or small home devices.
Red + near-infrared wavelengths
Uses more than one part of the light spectrum rather than simple visible red light alone.
High-output professional equipment
Built for repeated wellness use in a professional setting.
Relaxing, hands-free sessions
Simply get comfortable and let the light do the work.

About Red Light:
Red Light for Anti-Aging & Healing Scars
Red light can help skin produce collagen, which decreases fine lines & wrinkles. It targets mitochondrial chromophores within skin cells, generating collagen production, & the STEM cells may be activated, increasing tissue repair. The result is accelerated healing, wound repair, & improved skin texture! It also can strengthen hair and provide skin with firmness & elasticity!
Red Light for Pain/Inflammation:
🧬 Why our BIOMAX 900 Is Different
This isn’t just a glow-up device—it’s clinical-grade light medicine using:
- 7 wavelengths including 480, 630, 660, 810, 830, 850 & 1060 nm
- Targeting everything from skin regeneration to deep muscle recovery AND fat layer circulation.
To work at this level, the light must reach your cells—unobstructed.
Red Light is also being used for remediating Traumatic Brain injuries, and it can help with Thyroid issues, testosterone production, hair growth & more!
Preparing for Red Light Therapy with BIOMAX 900
7-Wavelength Full-Body Regeneration Panel
🧼 Come With Clean, Product-Free Skin
Why? Massage creams, oils, lotions, and makeup can block or scatter the wavelengths of light—especially the shallow-penetrating ones like:
- 480 nm (blue): for skin clarity & antibacterial support
- 630 & 660 nm (red): for collagen, healing, and inflammation
These frequencies are easily blocked by occlusive products. Even clear or natural oils reduce effectiveness.
What to do:
- Wash your face or body prior to treatment
- Avoid applying lotions, creams, or SPF beforehand
- Use only clean, dry skin during your red light session
🚫 No Massage Cream During Red Light
We love massage—but it comes *after* light therapy, not during.
Massage cream:
- Blocks red & blue light from reaching your skin
- Traps heat (especially with NIR/IR wavelengths)
- Can react under light and cause sensitivity
Red light → THEN massage. Not the other way around.
💡 Aftercare & Massage Flow (Optional)
If you're combining red light with bodywork, we recommend this protocol:
1. Red Light Therapy (10–20 minutes)
Bare skin only. Focused healing, cellular activation, circulation support.
2. Massage or Bodywork Session
Now that your tissue is primed, massage goes deeper, faster—with better lymphatic flow and nervous system reset.
3. Optional Add-Ons:
Apply nourishing oils, creams, or herbal salves after light is complete.
Finish with the Ballancer/Lymphatic Drainage Massage. Combine services for the ultimate healing experience!

Red Light therapy is most effective when laser lights are used over halogen or fluorescent bulbs, which can emit Radio frequencies that are disruptive to the body and have an opposite effect of what is intended for healing.
