With Mother's day right around the corner, you're probably wondering what to get her. It's easy to stick to the traditional—gifts, flowers, jewelry, or a gift card. But do these really show your appreciation to her for everything she's done for you? In reality, most mothers' day gifts aren't really that useful. Sure, a framed fame photo or a personalized mug is nice, but why not get her something that improves her well-being and makes her feel better in her own skin? 

Have you heard of the Aduro 7-in-1 Led face mask? If this is the first time you’ve heard about red light therapy, well, you just found the perfect mother's day gift. As women get older, they want to hold onto their youthfulness and this device is how they can achieve this goal. But before we talk about how skin care light therapy works, it's important you understand how light therapy functions and its many benefits.

Light therapy uses different types of light to act as a source of energy for the cells. When light penetrates the skin, the ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is stimulated. ATP acts to fuel your body's cells. Once stimulated, the body works to repair and rejuvenate damaged and old cells. Now, the body does this naturally; however, light therapy accelerates the process; thus, light therapy users see results within days. 

Naturally, light therapy can be used on a variety of areas of the body and can help with issues ranging from joint pain, to muscle recovery, to Seasonal Affective Disorder. But the Aduro 7-in-1 LED face mask focuses on promoting skin healing and collagen production. As we age, our skin's elasticity and collagen production decrease, creating fine lines and wrinkles. However, through Aduro's 7-in-1 light therapy mask, you can literally reverse signs of aging. 

The Aduro mask is one of the most advanced at-home LED facial masks on the market, featuring 11 different light treatments for a variety of skin conditions, from acne to pigmentation to rosacea. If you're wondering, “do light therapy masks really work?” The answer is “yes!” You just need to make sure you give yourself between 15-20 minutes per day to wear the mask. That's all that needs to be done. From there, you let the mask do its job.

The hands-free device has settings for blue, green, red, amber, and purple light. You can combine them to get the desired results. For example, blue light kills bacteria, red light is anti-inflammatory, and green light fights hyperpigmentation. So, it can be adjusted depending on the needs of the individual. Our skin’s needs fluctuate over time, and this mask works perfectly for all ages and skin types. 

While most at-home treatments require you to hold the device, this face mask stays on without having to touch it. So, your mom will be able to use her phone, meditate, listen to a podcast, all while the mask does its work. 

The best part is that light therapy has been well-researched and used for decades. So, if you’ve been wondering whether light therapy face masks are safe, yes, they are. Many skin experts have weighed in and studied the safety and efficacy of light treatments. 

More importantly, Kayian's red light therapy devices are FDA-approved and MDA-certified. While many light therapy masks on the market provide weak light with limited effects on the skin, Kayian's light therapy devices are not only regulated, but they work as non-invasive at-home treatments. So, this mother's day, why not treat your mom to a gift that she'll actually benefit from? Once she sees the benefits, she'll fall in love with the Aduro 7-in-1 light therapy mask and never want to take it off!

If there's one thing that many of us experience during the holiday season, it’s stress. As much as it can be a time of joy, there’s a lot of pressures that come along with this time of the year. And now, the holidays come with yet another set of stressors that we're not so unaccustomed to: an ongoing global pandemic. None of us have gone through a holiday season during lockdowns and quarantines, making it stressful and difficult to navigate. 

With many of us unable to see our families, we are potentially having to spend the holidays alone, only seeing our loved ones over Zoom or Skype. It’s an unusual time we’re living in right now and it can bring up various emotions. The chronic stress we’re currently living in can lead to serious health problems, including inflammation, headaches, insomnia, digestion issues, and loss of sexual desire. 

On top of everything, the winter season brings SAD (seasonal affective disorder), resulting in many people suffering from low energy, depression, and appetite changes. So, as you can see, we’re dealing with a lot this holiday season, and it’s evermore important to take care of ourselves. 

Of course, the fact that we're separated from our families is difficult, and sadly, there's not much we can do about it. However, we can help ourselves find mental, emotional, and physical balance during these stressful times, and reduce inflammation stemming from stress in the body.

If you're suffering from inflammation and have experienced pain, heat, swelling, and discomfort, you've probably done some Googling to find the cause. As you know, endless search results point to diet, weight, and exercise, which are all valid causes, but they are not the only ones. But there's one main cause we tend to ignore: stress. 

What happens to us when we’re stressed? When we're stressed, our inflammatory response jumps into action and our body enters allostasis. Allostasis is the process of adapting to acute stress by producing stress-related hormones such as cortisol and adrenaline. In other words, our bodies go into "flight or fight" mode. 

This isn't necessarily unhealthy; this is part of the natural human response. However, the problem comes when we're experiencing chronic stress as our bodies cannot return to homeostasis. This causes the body to believe we're fighting for our lives continually, and ultimately causes inflammation. 

Naturally, in today’s world, you’re going to experience stressful situations. And yes, yoga and meditation help to reduce stress, but they don’t reduce inflammation entirely. So, what can you do? When it comes to bringing your body back to a state of balance, red light therapy works wonders.

If you've ever visited the doctor for inflammation issues, you've probably been prescribed nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or steroids. Though they're useful, they don't deal with the root cause of your inflammation.

Red light therapy does combat the root of inflammation by sending wavelengths of red and near-infrared (NIR) light to the skin and cells, cutting down the oxidative stress and enhancing cellular energy to boost your immune system, even preventing diseases that are caused by chronic inflammation. In addition, red light therapy also increases the cell's healing process, improving blood flow and reducing any existing inflammation. 

Aside from the inflammation, red light therapy also aids in treating seasonal affective disorder (SAD). Red light therapy’s benefits are particularly powerful during the winter season, as you can eliminate or reduce winter-related conditions such as inflammation and SAD. 

Inflammation is a natural part of the human body, but chronic inflammation can cause serious health risks that can significantly reduce the quality of your life. Therefore, we’re intent on helping people reduce inflammation at Lunas through our state-of-the-art red light therapy devices that are MDA and FDA approved and can be used from the comfort of your home during this holiday season. 

Winter can be a dreary and gloomy time of year, but that doesn’t mean you need to feel poorly, too. With red light therapy, you’ll be able to reduce inflammation, eliminate symptoms and get your life back.
