  🌱 You’re more like a houseplant than you think — and understanding this could be the key to overcoming fatigue, brain fog, and stubborn inflammation. At Red Light Therapy Spa LLC in Flint, Michigan, we see it every day: people struggling with low energy, poor sleep, and slow recovery, especially during our long, gray Michigan winters. The surprising reason? A lack of the right light frequencies — the same kind plants need to thrive. Researcher John Ott proved decades ago through time-lapse photography that missing key light wavelengths causes “ mal-illumination ” in plants and animals alike. In humans, this light deficiency disrupts hormones, weakens mitochondrial function (your cellular power plants), and contributes to feeling tired and unwell — a condition comparable to malnutrition. The Deep Connection Between Humans and Plants Humans and plants share more than you might realize. Both are built from eukaryotic cells with ancient bacterial roots. Our mitochondria (the ener...

  Image: Aspergillus mold in the lungs – a visual representation of how mold exposure can affect respiratory health and contribute to systemic symptoms. Hidden Mold Could Be Behind Your Persistent Symptoms If you're struggling with ongoing sinus problems, brain fog, fatigue, or other vague symptoms that don't improve with standard treatments, mold toxicity might be the missing piece. In this informative interview with Nachai Taylor from WNEM Channel 5, Dr. Robert Rees, DO , osteopathic family physician at Red Light Therapy Spa LLC in Flint, Michigan, discusses why mold exposure and mycotoxins are frequently overlooked — and how our new mycotoxin mold screening program can help identify the root cause. Watch the full interview above to hear Dr. Rees explain how mold can create a wide range of symptoms that mimic other conditions. Understanding Mold Toxicity Mold is common in Michigan homes, especially during humid seasons. Certain molds, such as Aspergillus (shown below), c...

  Most people worry about the fat you can pinch. But the fat that’s quietly killing you is the fat you can’t see. It’s called visceral fat — the deep, “active” fat that wraps around your liver, stomach, intestines, pancreas, and heart. Unlike the softer subcutaneous fat under your skin, visceral fat behaves like an endocrine organ. It constantly pumps out inflammatory cytokines and free fatty acids that drive insulin resistance, high blood pressure, abnormal cholesterol, and full-blown metabolic disease. The science is crystal clear. When your subcutaneous fat storage hits capacity (think of it as your body’s safe “bank account” for extra calories), the surplus spills over into places it doesn’t belong. This is exactly what Figure 4 from the landmark paper by Tchernof and Després (2013) illustrates so powerfully: Positive energy balance → subcutaneous fat becomes saturated Lipid overflow begins Excess fat floods into visceral depots, the liver (NAFLD), muscle tissue, around...

Embracing the Philosophy of Medicine 3.0 to Elevate Healthspan in Flint, Michigan We believe everyone deserves to heal fully and naturally — and emerge stronger than before, free from harsh side effects and unnecessary hurdles. That’s our unwavering purpose at Red Light Therapy Spa LLC in Flint, Michigan. As Peter Attia, MD — physician, longevity expert, and author of the bestselling book Outlive — explains, modern medicine often focuses on simply adding years to life. He calls this approach Medicine 2.0 . In Medicine 2.0, the emphasis is on treating disease after it appears, using medications and procedures to manage symptoms and extend lifespan. While this model has helped with acute illnesses, it often falls short when it comes to the chronic diseases of aging — what Dr. Attia refers to as the “Four Horsemen”: cardiovascular disease, cancer, neurodegenerative conditions, and metabolic dysfunction. The result? Many people in Flint and surrounding communities may live longer bu...

  In our busy, high-stress world, more and more people are looking for safe, natural ways to relax, reduce pain, and feel better. One popular option is reflexology — a therapy that uses targeted pressure on specific points on the feet, hands, or ears. We reviewed the latest research, including systematic reviews and meta-analyses, to give you a clear, evidence-based look at what reflexology can really do. What Is Reflexology? Reflexology involves applying pressure to “reflex zones” on the feet (most commonly), hands, or ears that are believed to correspond to different organs and systems in the body. A typical session lasts 30–60 minutes. You stay fully clothed — only your shoes and socks come off — and many people find it deeply relaxing, often falling asleep during the treatment. Modern reflexology was popularized in the early 20th century by Eunice Ingham. While it draws from ancient practices, today it is mainly valued for its calming and supportive effects rather than as a cur...
