So, I’ve always been the guy who rolls his eyes at anything that sounds too “wellness‑y.” If it can’t be fixed with ibuprofen, duct tape, or ignoring it, I usually assume it’s nonsense.
But yesterday my physical therapist offered me a free session of Red Light Therapy. And since I’ve been on Tirzepatide for a few months and my face has recently decided to age in dog years thanks to rapid weight loss, I figured… why not. Worst case, I glow in the dark afterward.
First surprise: that light is BRIGHT. I was expecting something gentle and spa‑like. Instead, I stepped into what looked like a cross between a tanning booth and the engine room of the Starship Enterprise. (I kinda liked it - what next Geordi )
Second surprise: you do this naked. So there I was, a man in my 50s, standing in a tiny closet-sized chamber, bathed in red light like a confused rotisserie chicken. At one point I caught myself doing a little shuffle (think the movie FAME really), and I thought, “If anyone walks in right now, I’m never recovering socially.”
But honestly? It was kind of fun. Silly, but fun. I felt like I was starring in a low-budget sci-fi movie where the aliens are trying to rejuvenate me before sending me back to Earth.
Will it help with the wrinkles? Who knows. But at least now I can say I’ve tried it, and I didn’t burst into flames or gain superpowers . . .yet, so I’m counting it as a win. And she said I can come back anytime for free. Apparently its not getting a lot of use right now.
Just thought I’d share my first adventure into the world of glowing wellness gadgets. If nothing else, maybe someone gets a laugh out of imagining me doing the Naked Red Light Shuffle in a closet.
