How to use red light therapy for sleep?

My doctor actually recommended using it specifically between 6 PM to 8 PM to align with my circadian rhythm. I use a 660nm wavelength light about 6 inches from my face for exactly 10 minutes. He said to avoid looking directly at the LEDs to protect the eyes.

I tried red light therapy but honestly, my sleep only improved when I got my high blood pressure under control. Regular evening walks and proper BP checks are way more important. If you try the light, make sure you aren't ignoring your basic health stats.

Does anyone else get a bit dizzy after using those red lights? I bought a small bulb for my bedside lamp but it makes me feel slightly weird if I leave it on too long. Just wondering if I should stop using it altogether or if this is normal.

I struggled with insomnia for years and tried everything, including red light therapy. The trick is consistency; use it daily for 20 minutes before bedtime while keeping other bright screens off. Don't expect magic in one night, it takes about two weeks of regular use to notice a real difference.
