LED Light Therapy
Accelerate your body’s natural healing with therapeutic LED light. Whether recovering from surgery, fighting inflammation, or seeking that healthy glow, our medical-grade LED therapy delivers results you can see and feel.
Add LED to any massage for accelerated results, or book it standalone when you need targeted healing. Twenty minutes of therapeutic light that makes everything else work better.
LED Light Therapy at Atma Wellbeing isn’t your average beauty treatment. It’s therapeutic photobiomodulation – fancy words for using specific wavelengths of light to trigger your body’s natural healing responses.
Think of LED therapy as a conversation with your cells. Different wavelengths speak different languages. Red light (630-700nm) talks to your skin cells, boosting collagen and accelerating surface healing. Near-infrared (700-1000nm) penetrates deeper, chatting with muscles and joints about reducing inflammation and speeding recovery. Blue light tackles bacteria and calms angry skin. It’s remarkably clever, completely painless, and surprisingly relaxing.
Here’s what makes it brilliant as an add-on: LED therapy amplifies everything else we do. Just had lymphatic drainage? LED helps your body process those toxins faster. Post-surgery massage? LED speeds healing and reduces scarring. Remedial Massage? LED will penetrate into the area of discomfort, reduce inflammation and speed up healing. Twenty minutes under our therapeutic lights isn’t just nice to have – it’s the upgrade that takes your treatment from good to exceptional. This is recovery optimised: scientifically proven, professionally delivered, and honestly, the secret weapon your body’s been waiting for. Book an appointment today.
Advanced therapy that enhances every treatment
We’ve been combining LED light therapy with our massage treatments for years, long before it became trendy. Why? Because we saw the results. Clients healing faster from surgery. Sports injuries recovering weeks ahead of schedule. Skin transforming after pregnancy. Our medical-grade LED panels aren’t the cheap versions you see everywhere – they’re therapeutic equipment delivering precise wavelengths at proven therapeutic doses. When you add LED to your session, you’re not just getting a light treatment. You’re getting professionally administered phototherapy that makes everything else more effective.
Why clients add LED Light Therapy to their sessions?
Whether you’re maximising post-surgery recovery, dealing with stubborn inflammation, supporting your skin through pregnancy changes, or simply wanting to heal faster from that sports injury, LED therapy delivers measurable results without any downtime.
The beauty of LED therapy is its versatility. Athletes use it to recover faster between training sessions. Post-surgery patients see reduced swelling and better scar outcomes. New mothers love how it helps with skin elasticity. Office workers with chronic neck pain find the anti-inflammatory effects last longer than massage alone. Each session is customised with specific wavelengths for your needs, because one size definitely doesn’t fit all when it comes to therapeutic light.

Enhance your results: LED Light Therapy options & prices
LED therapy can be added to any massage service or booked as a standalone treatment. Package deals available for regular therapy.
At Atma Wellbeing in Dee Why, LED light therapy isn’t just another add-on service. It’s an integral part of our holistic approach to healing, carefully integrated with our massage therapies to deliver superior results.
What makes our LED therapy different from the countless options popping up across Sydney? First, we use genuine medical-grade equipment. Those panels delivering your treatment cost thousands, not hundreds, because therapeutic results require therapeutic equipment. Second, we understand the science. Our physiotherapist founder ensures we’re using evidence-based protocols, not just following trends. We know which wavelengths work for which conditions, optimal treatment times, and how to combine LED with manual therapies for maximum benefit.
Located in Dee Why’s Meriton Retail Precinct, we’ve become the Northern Beaches’ go-to clinic for therapeutic LED light therapy. Surgeons recommend us for post-operative care. Athletes trust us for recovery. Mothers choose us for safe pregnancy and postnatal skin support. Whether you’re adding LED to enhance your regular massage, using it to accelerate healing from injury or surgery, or simply wanting to give your skin the therapeutic boost it deserves, our LED therapy delivers real, measurable results. Not just pretty lights, but proven therapeutic technology that helps your body do what it does best – heal itself.
Our frequently asked questions
What exactly is LED light therapy and how does it work?
LED (Light Emitting Diode) therapy uses specific wavelengths of light to trigger biological processes in your cells. Different colours penetrate different depths – red light (630-700nm) works on skin surface for collagen and healing, near-infrared (700-1000nm) penetrates deeper for muscles and joints, blue light (415nm) kills acne bacteria. When these wavelengths hit your cells, they stimulate mitochondria (your cellular power plants) to produce more ATP – basically cellular energy. More energy means faster healing, reduced inflammation, and improved cell function. It’s like giving your cells a perfectly tuned energy drink.
Is LED light therapy actually scientifically proven?
Absolutely. LED therapy has thousands of peer-reviewed studies backing its effectiveness. NASA originally developed it for wound healing in space. Now it’s used in hospitals for wound care, by physiotherapists for pain management, and by dermatologists for skin conditions. The key is using the right wavelengths at the right intensity – which is exactly what our medical-grade equipment delivers. This isn’t alternative medicine; it’s proven photobiomodulation therapy.
How is LED different from laser therapy?
While both use light for healing, LED is gentler and covers larger areas. Laser therapy uses focused, coherent light that can be quite intense. LED uses diffused light that’s completely safe for regular use. Think of laser as a spotlight and LED as a floodlight – both illuminate, but in different ways. LED is painless, has no downtime, and can treat broader areas, making it perfect as a massage add-on or regular therapy.
Can I add LED to any massage service?
Yes! That’s the beauty of LED therapy – it enhances everything. Adding LED to lymphatic drainage helps process toxins faster. With remedial massage, it accelerates tissue repair. Post-surgery massage plus LED means better scar outcomes. Pregnancy massage with LED supports skin elasticity. The twenty-minute add-on happens during your rest time, so it doesn’t extend your appointment significantly. Your therapist will position the panels based on your treatment focus.
How long before I see results from LED therapy?
Many people notice immediate effects – reduced pain, feeling of warmth, or skin looking more radiant. However, the real magic happens over time. For skin concerns, visible improvements typically appear after 4-6 sessions. Wound healing and post-surgery recovery show progress within days. Chronic conditions might need 8-10 sessions for significant change. The cumulative effect is key – each session builds on the last, which is why we offer package deals.
Is LED therapy safe? Are there any side effects?
LED therapy is incredibly safe when administered properly. Unlike UV light, therapeutic LED wavelengths don’t damage skin or cause burns. There’s no downtime, no pain, and side effects are virtually non-existent. Some people experience mild warmth during treatment or temporary redness that fades within an hour. It’s safe during pregnancy (avoiding direct abdominal exposure), safe for all skin types, and can be used as frequently as daily if needed.
What conditions respond best to LED light therapy?
LED therapy is remarkably versatile. Excellent results for: post-surgical healing, chronic pain conditions, sports injuries, inflammatory skin conditions (acne, rosacea, eczema), wound healing, arthritis pain, muscle recovery, fibromyalgia, seasonal affective disorder, and general skin rejuvenation. It’s particularly effective when combined with manual therapies, which is why we recommend it as an add-on to massage treatments addressing these conditions.
How often should I have LED therapy?
Depends on your goals. For acute injuries or post-surgery, 2-3 times per week initially gives fastest results. For skin rejuvenation, twice weekly for the first month, then weekly maintenance. Chronic conditions benefit from weekly sessions long-term. As a massage add-on, include it whenever you have your regular treatment. The beauty of LED is you can’t really overdo it – more frequent sessions just mean faster results.
Can LED therapy help with surgical scars?
Yes, LED therapy is excellent for scar management. Red light stimulates fibroblasts (cells that produce collagen) helping scars heal flatter and less visible. Near-infrared reduces inflammation and improves circulation to scar tissue. Best results come from starting LED as soon as wounds close – usually 2-3 weeks post-surgery. Even old scars can improve with consistent treatment, though fresh scars respond best. We see remarkable improvements in C-section, cosmetic surgery, and injury scars.
Is home LED the same as professional treatment?
Not even close. Home devices typically deliver 5-30 milliwatts of power. Our medical-grade panels deliver 100-200 milliwatts – that’s therapeutic dose versus cosmetic dose. Home devices also rarely combine wavelengths optimally or cover sufficient area. It’s like comparing a torch to a lighthouse. Home devices might help maintain results, but for genuine therapeutic benefit, you need professional-grade equipment and someone who knows how to use it properly.
Can LED therapy replace my other treatments?
LED works best as part of comprehensive care, not a replacement. Think of it as the amplifier that makes everything else work better. It won’t replace massage for muscle tension, but it helps massage results last longer. It won’t substitute for post-surgery lymphatic drainage, but it accelerates healing when combined. LED is the ultimate team player – making good treatments great and great treatments exceptional.
Do you offer LED therapy packages?
Absolutely. We have standalone LED packages for regular light therapy, combination packages that include LED with specific massage treatments, and flexible add-on options for existing clients. Packages make regular therapy more affordable and ensure you get the cumulative benefits of consistent treatment. Ask about our post-surgery recovery packages that combine lymphatic drainage with LED – they’re incredibly popular for good reason.
