Want to loose weight, reduce stress, detox and more? Try the world’s firs
2008-04-25 19:30:00
Interested in loosing weight, reducing stress or just want to be refreshed? Try the new, world’s first LED spa, its thought that the monochromatic light it produces (from wavelengths of between 625-980 nm) work by causing physical stimulation of some sort. All you need to do is lie yourself down in one of these LED pod-like capsule machines that make you look as if you were getting a tan. I don’t feel entirely convinced about this alternative type of medicine but it seems the ‘clinic’ claims they can help you loose weight even from a single session and that there are different packages to choose from to suit your own needs. There’s alot of information about these pods and this type of ‘treatment’ at the Med-Spa Aesthetic Medicine Clinic site, click here… Too bad it’s only available in Kent, but as the world’s first, I’m sure there will be more to come in the future if this type of therapy really does work!
