This World Menopause Month, we’re sharing our personal experiences of menopausal symptoms and how LED therapy can be incorporated into a wellness routine during this time of change. Read on for three real stories that highlight the impact of LED on overall well-being and discover how your device can become a valuable part of your self-care journey.
Miyuki
Miyuki, a Light Salon LED specialist, has worked with us for four years. Having delivered countless treatments on herself, others, and her entire family, she understands the wide-ranging benefits of LED.
Like many women experiencing perimenopause or menopause, Miyuki has noticed thinning hair. However, with consistent use of her Boost Body Patch, she has seen improvements in hair thickness and reduced shedding. LED therapy is widely used to increase circulation in the scalp, which may help support hair follicle function.
Beyond hair concerns, the Boost Body Patch can be incorporated into a wellness routine to help address common skin changes during menopause, such as dryness, breakouts, and loss of firmness. By stimulating the skin’s natural collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid production, LED helps to support hydration, plumpness, and overall skin vitality.
Laura
Laura, co-founder of The Light Salon, has been passionate about LED therapy since 2006. While the skincare benefits are what initially draw most people to LED, she wishes more people understood its impact on overall well-being.
The Boost LED Body Patch has become an essential part of her self-care routine, particularly during stressful moments or restless nights. Like many women experiencing menopausal changes—or anyone navigating the daily stresses of life—Laura sometimes struggles with occasional anxiety and disrupted sleep. On nights when her mind is racing while the rest of the house is fast asleep, she turns to LED therapy for its calming and comforting effects.
By consistently placing her LED Patch on her chest, Laura has not only seen an improvement in skin texture but also found it to be a powerful part of her relaxation routine, helping her to feel more balanced and at ease.
Jay
Jay, a Light Salon client and friend, has always suffered from winter ‘lizard skin’; dry patches of skin on her legs that cause discomfort and itchiness, and have consistently got worse with age.
Last year her discomfort increased so much, she contacted Laura, who explained how fluctuating hormones can impact skin on both the face and body, especially during perimenopause. Laura encouraged her to care for her body’s skin as she would her face, using a consistent and nourishing skincare approach.
By incorporating the Boost LED Patch into her routine daily, Jay saw a visible improvement in just two weeks. This year, she’s staying ahead by making LED a key part of her self-care routine, proving that with commitment and consistency, light therapy can be a valuable tool in maintaining skin comfort and hydration.
We’re passionate about sharing experiences like these, and spreading the word about the support LED can provide.
