A treatment session usually lasts for about 90 minutes. The patient either sits or reclines while lamps are directed at the part of the body that needs the therapy. The whole process is a relaxing and pleasing experience.
For acute conditions the benefit may often be felt during a session. People have noticed improvement in symptoms within 2 or 3 sessions. For chronic conditions, it may take longer to feel the benefits. Most people have found an improvement within 5 or 6 treatments.
