216: Melissa Strahan on the Health Benefits of Joovv Light Therapy
In this episode I'm chatting with Melissa Strahan, one of the co-founders of Joovv, the leaders in light therapy. Melissa has a passion for health and wellness that ultimately led to the formation of Joovv, and she is also mom to six amazing kids ranging in ages from 5 to 20. When she isn't busy with Joovv or being a mom, Melissa loves spending time outdoors soaking in the sun and all the amazing health benefits nature has to offer.
In this episode, Melissa shares her personal health story and how she found light therapy as a remedy for her skin condition. Melissa discusses how Joovv was born and explains the science behind how light therapy works. She explains the difference between red and blue light, red versus near infrared light therapy, how light therapy affects mitochondria, and the ancestral explanation for why light therapy works. She also talks about the wide variety of health concerns light therapy can help with, including acne, eczema, psoriasis, scarring, joint pain, arthritis, sleep, hair growth, hormonal health, inflammation, depression, anxiety, fat loss, and much more.
