Episode Details

In this information-packed episode of The Red Light Report, Dr. Mike Belkowski is joined by Josh Crawford, Clinical Director of Genoa Integrative Health & Wellness. Josh shares his transformational journey from emergency medicine to building one of the most robust red light therapy clinics in North America. Sparked by the tragic loss of his first wife to Crohn’s disease and biologic-related cancer, Josh recounts how that experience ignited his pursuit of root-cause medicine, integrative therapies, and photobiomodulation.

The episode dives deep into the clinical application of red light therapy and methylene blue — especially in combination — as tools for mitochondrial repair, anti-aging, and chronic disease recovery. Josh and Dr. Mike explore the synergistic effects of methylene blue and red light, optimal dosing strategies, and the importance of high-quality supplementation. They also address the challenges of consumer devices, the biohacker movement, and using light and energy to promote cellular regeneration.

Topics include:

•  Josh’s journey from paramedic to bioenergetic health leader

•  Why methylene blue + red light = mitochondrial magic

•  Dosing strategies, contraindications, and clinical applications

•  How to vet red light therapy devices and avoid snake oil

•  Real-world stories of healing from autoimmune, cancer, and neurodegeneration

Whether you’re a clinician, wellness entrepreneur, or biohacker, this episode is full of clinical pearls, personal insights, and practical protocols that highlight the future of medicine rooted in energy, light, and mitochondrial health.
