Expanding Healing at Home: Dr. Logan Talks Red Light Therapy and New Innovations from Red:Vive
Hello from The Logan Institute for Health & Wellness in Fishers, Indiana! Dr. Kevin Logan recently traveled to Minneapolis to attend a prestigious conference hosted by Rejuv Medical. This event brought together leading voices in regenerative medicine, and one exciting topic stood out—photobiomodulation, commonly known as red light therapy.
Dr. Logan has been implementing this innovative therapy in his clinic for over 25 years, and now, a new partnership with Red:Vive is making it easier than ever for patients to experience the benefits from the comfort of home.
What Is Photobiomodulation?
Photobiomodulation (PBM) uses red and near-infrared light to stimulate healing at the cellular level. It's a technique grounded in a strong body of scientific evidence and has shown effectiveness for a wide range of conditions. From pain relief and tissue healing to skin rejuvenation and collagen production, PBM’s potential continues to grow.
Dr. Logan sat down with Dr. Desai, co-founder of Red:Vive and a musculoskeletal radiologist and regenerative medicine specialist. Together, they explored how red light therapy is becoming more accessible and powerful through home-use devices that serve as an extension of the clinical setting.
Healing from the Inside Out—at Home
Traditionally, red light therapy was something patients could only experience in a medical clinic. Now, Red:Vive’s at-home devices bring the same healing wavelengths directly into your daily life. Whether you're dealing with inflammation, chronic pain, or just looking to improve your skin and cellular health, this therapy is a safe, natural, and non-invasive option.
Dr. Desai explained that red light therapy invigorates cells, helping them heal and function more efficiently. Interestingly, these benefits aren’t just limited to physical tissues. The therapy also interacts with photoreceptors in the eyes, stimulating the optic pathway to influence brain health, sleep quality, and even hormone regulation.
Better Sleep, Healthier Brain
One of the most fascinating aspects of this conversation was the discussion around circadian rhythm support. Using red light therapy in the evening mimics the natural light of dusk, helping your body produce more melatonin, release growth hormone, and suppress cortisol. The result? Deeper, more restorative sleep.
Better sleep, in turn, supports what Dr. Desai referred to as the brain’s “washing system.” During deep sleep, the body clears out metabolic waste—including beta-amyloid proteins linked to Alzheimer’s. This process is vital for maintaining cognitive health and preventing long-term neurological conditions.
Morning and Evening Applications for Maximum Benefit
Dr. Logan shared how red light therapy has become part of his daily morning routine, helping to activate his body and boost energy—no caffeine required! In the morning, red light encourages ATP production and supports catabolic processes (breaking down energy for action). In the evening, it supports anabolic processes (rest, repair, regeneration).
This dual approach not only enhances sleep and energy but also maximizes the body’s ability to detoxify, rebuild, and feel refreshed each day.
Building the Future of Wellness—Together
Dr. Desai and the team at Red:Vive are also launching a data collection initiative to study the long-term effects of red light therapy in real-world settings. Patients of The Logan Institute are invited to participate and contribute to the growing body of evidence supporting this powerful therapy.
As Dr. Logan put it, this collaboration represents a new frontier in how we deliver and extend care beyond the clinic. With ongoing innovation, scientific rigor, and patient-centered technology, red light therapy is quickly becoming a cornerstone in the field of regenerative medicine.
