How Red Light Therapy Can Support You Through Menopause
Menopause isn’t just about hot flushes and hormone shifts. It can affect your energy, your joints, your sleep, your brain fog, and even your sense of self. At Coastal Rehab Hub, we believe this stage of life deserves more support, not less, and red light therapy is one way we’re tackling menopause.
It’s why we introduced the Prism Light Pod to our Erina wellness clinic: a powerful, non-invasive red light therapy bed that fits into busy lives and supports your body from the inside out. If you’re navigating menopause and looking for natural support on the Central Coast, red light therapy could be the missing piece.
Menopause is More Than Hot Flushes
Thankfully, the conversation around menopause has come a long way. It’s not like it was 20 years ago, when the only symptom people talked about was hot flushes ().
Today, more women are recognising – and talking about – the full range of symptoms that can come with menopause and perimenopause. We’re more educated, more empowered, and more willing to seek out support.
And that’s a good thing, because menopause can affect:
- Energy and fatigue levels
- Joint pain and muscle stiffness
- Brain fog and memory
- Sleep quality and temperature regulation
- Mood, motivation and mental clarity
- Recovery from illness, injury, or surgery
The impact on daily life can be huge. But the good news? There are options. And one of them is whole-body red light therapy.
Why Red Light Therapy is Worth Exploring
Red and near-infrared light therapy is backed by growing scientific research. It works by stimulating the mitochondria – the “energy centre” of your cells – to help the body function and repair more effectively.
During menopause, fluctuating hormones can affect almost every system in your body, from your skin and joints to your sleep and mood. That’s where red light therapy can help.
“So many women come to us feeling flat, foggy, and like they’ve lost a bit of themselves. Red light therapy offers a gentle, evidence-based option to manage menopausal changes, and help you feel like you again.” – Kate Perkins
Research shows that red light therapy can:
- Reduce inflammation and ease joint and muscle pain
- Improve circulation and boost cellular energy
- Support nervous system regulation for calmer mood and stress relief
- Aid in muscle recovery and tissue repair
- Help manage fatigue, brain fog and sleep disruption
- Stimulate collagen production to improve skin texture and hydration
- Support temperature regulation, helping reduce the intensity of hot flushes
Many of these benefits directly target common menopausal symptoms, helping you feel more balanced and energised throughout the day.
The Prism Light Pod comes with six optimised settings, adapting the frequency and intensity levels to target your specific needs, for an experience that’s both personalised and automated.
