As friends and family come together this Thanksgiving to share what they’re thankful for, local resident Bryan Sanders expresses his wish to stay healthy.
Bryan has always been an active guy who enjoys boating, hiking, and family activities. When he was in his 30s, he was involved in two car accidents just six months apart. The second accident caused significant injuries that led to neck surgery to fuse two discs together, leading to a journey of pain in which Bryan lived all day and all night.
Over the years, Bryan spent many hours and lots of money at his chiropractor’s office. One day, his chiropractor installed a red light therapy bed and asked him to try it out. After three days, Bryan discovered a level of pain relief that he had not experienced in the last 30 years. It was a life-changing moment, marking the start of a new journey.
Bryan explored the science of red light therapy or RLT, a non-invasive therapy that emits infrared and near infrared light all over your body. Red light therapy facial masks are particularly popular right now. The mask might make you look like Jason from “Friday the 13th,” the benefits are worth it, as they’re known to prevent wrinkles and acne. Most importantly, RLT provides significant pain relief for muscle soreness. Football players, athletes, and all people who are active can benefit from this this treatment after a rough game or any taxing physical activity.
As Bryan climbed into the bed-like device and was enclosed within it, the 15-minute therapeutic session began. Providing 360 degrees of red light therapy throughout his entire body was a completely new experience. This FDA-registered, medical-grade device isn’t a quick fix, though some users report pain relief after just one session. Some have found that it alleviates pain wherever they have pain after the very first session. For Bryan, it took several days for his body to respond to the healing red light therapy provided by this device. This worked for him, and he was sold.
Bryan became such a passionate advocate for red light therapy that he and his wife, Cindy, along with their daughter, Tiffany, opened EverGlo (everglostudios.com) in Henderson. As EverGlo celebrates its one-year anniversary, the family expresses their gratitude to the community for its support and continues to offer customers a complimentary first visit.
If you want to elevate your healing experience, consider trying “The Cold Plunge.” You hit a three-minute timer and immerse yourself in 47 degrees of water and focus on Zen-like scenery on a TV screen. It’s mind over matter and is known for being one of the most invigorating mind-clearing encounters you have ever felt. Fun fact: Most of their clients who try “The Cold Plunge” are women.
Bryan now leads a pain-free life and hopes to help others overcome their trauma as well.
Now that’s something we all can be thankful for.
