Red-light Anti-aging Therapy Brought to you by NASA

Let's Get Technical-

NASA & Red-light Therapy


Red-light therapy, and research into its anti-aging effects, was first carried out by NASA.  In the early 1990's a NASA sponsored research at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.  They worked to develop a plant growth chamber using Near Infrared Light Technology experiments on the space shuttle missions.  Over the years that (NIRLT)-Red-light Therapy technology has been in use in the medical fields.  With the help of NASA and it's medical partners they have been able to take a space technology and adapt it for an entirely different application to significantly help people here on Earth.  (NIR)-Near Infra Red-light was used to aid the growing of plants in space. They found that while testing red light the astronauts benefited vastly by being exposed to this light also. Clinical treatment trials into collagen red light therapy soon followed in the USA and across much of Europe.

Finding that Red-light is a powerful tool that assists your body in healing.  Clinical studies have been conducted and found that glowing red-light, has been proven to aid in the healing of human wounds, burns, diabetic skin ulcers and oral mucositis, a symptom of chemotherapy, in association with cancer patients undergoing bone marrow or stem cell transplants and specifically with pediatric brain tumors being treated with chemotherapy.  Through other studies red-light therapy has shown that this treatment increases collagen and elastin, creating fuller and tighter skin, speeding up the healing process, increasing ATP production, reducing sun spots, boosting the immune system and improving the circulatory system promoting nerve health and much more!

Red-light, known as visible light, contains no UVA or UVB. The use of red-light therapy at 633nm, has no significant risk and is completely safe including on the eyes.  Red-light penetrates tissue to a depth of 8-10 mm, delivering energy to stimulate a response from the body to heal itself. 



Red-light Collagen Therapy is found to help with many collagen aging effects as well as treating acne, healing of wounds, scar tissue and many other skin, joint and muscle problems.  Red-light therapy is an excellent collagen anti-aging, anti-wrinkle beauty treatment used to treat fine lines and wrinkles, stretch marks, cellulite, Rosacea and pigmentation marks.  It is also used to treat many other conditions not related to skin care, such as pain relief, sprains, wounds, burns, liver spots, and other skin blemishes associated with aging, with outstanding results!



Red-light therapy also helps anti-aging skin rejuvenation by stimulating the production of collagen and elastin deep in the skin. This collagen red-light therapy, in turn, helps maintain and repair the vascular system, which then aids the removal of toxins from the skin and helps with anti-aging and wrinkle effects. The combination of these from the collagen red-light therapy gives the skin a youthful look and really will make you look 10 years younger!



Laboratory studies show that skin cells grow 150-200 percent faster when exposed to certain light wavelengths, and research has shown red-light delivers powerful therapeutic benefits to living tissue. This NIR penetrates to the dermis level of your skin stimulating the production of collagen.




With collagen red-light therapy treatments your skin is now nourished by your own body.  That produces more collagen and thus fills the fine lines and wrinkles. Red-light therapy will cause your skin to become smoother and younger looking naturally, hence the anti-aging effects. Red-light therapy is also healthier as a treatment overall, and you will see a better skin tone and feel.

In short, this collaboration between NASA and commercial companies has spurred innovation that is touching millions of lives on Earth for the better.  A great non-invasive alternative to Botox and Collagen Injections, Cosmetic Surgery, Microdermabrasion, Thermage and Thermacell and other painful procedures that have a recovery process.  The healing power of red-light is available to you!  Why limit the treatment to your face?  Get the full-body treatment with us!

Oh What a Tangled Web We Weave, When We "Lie In Wait" to Deceive!

This often misquoted portion of an original poem by Sir. Walter Scott actually reads:

Yet Clare's sharp questions must I shun
Must separate Constance from the nun
Oh! what a tangled web we weave
When first we practice to deceive!
A Palmer too! No wonder why
I felt rebuked beneath his eye.

Even so, the meaning isn't lost.


Utah residents may have seen the ABC 4 News "Headline Story", no kidding!  They actually kicked off their news cast with this story. (April 26, 2012)"An ABC 4 News EXCLUSIVE  Are Utah tanning salons lying about cancer dangers?  Although the story that aired that night was entitled "Dying For A Tan".
The story featured Reporter Kylie Conway , MaryAnn Gerber, Huntsman Cancer Institute Doctor Sancy Leachman and a woman from the Utah Health Department, who remains unnamed in the printed version posted by the news agency in the early afternoon on April 27, 2012, but was featured in news footage as Teresa Garrett.  It seems Ms. Gerber and ABC 4 have been partners since, as far back as 2007 ,producing negative stories about Utah's tanning industry.  As for those people who have been presented by the ABC 4 news team as experts...seems they haven't done their research!  It is our attempt to expose this reporting, or "yellow journalism", and defend our right to the facts as documented by our establishment...one of 4 featured in the hit piece.


In Our Defense...
Our first incident was with an ABC 4 representative calling our business on April 16, 2012, asking to schedule an "on camera interview".  When we asked, "what is this concerning"? The representative stated, "they wanted an interview about the Legislation that had just passed this year".  When we told them we would, "address their questions in a written statement". The representative accused one of our employees of, "being caught on tape giving out false information that tanning was safe".  We asked to see the taped footage they claimed they had in their possession and we were told, "we could not see it".  The man was very rude and condescending and ended up hanging up on us.  So, as to Kylie Conway's statement in her report that, "we tried to contact salons with no success", is positively false.  That night we had a "drive by" by their satellite truck.

April 18, 2012 approximately 2:05 pm.  A cameraman and Kylie Conway were spotted outside our front door recording video. As the reporter approached our front entrance, camera and mic live, asking for an "on camera interview".  Remember, we had told them two days prior we would not do an on camera interview.  One of the owners approached the door and told the reporter and cameraman, face to face, he would "talk to them off camera, but did not feel comfortable on camera".  He asked them to, "turn off their equipment", stepped back, (at this point the video was creatively edited making it look like he is closing the door on them), but actually invited them both in.  Therefore confirming the false statement by Ms. Conway that, "when it came down to making a statement off camera, he didn't want to talk".  Our surveillance footage shows she, and her cameraman, in our establishment, engaged in conversation with Ms. Conway for almost 10 minutes.  Galvanising the evidence of outright falsehoods of what happened at our business

March 28 or 29, 2012-(We are not sure which day), MaryAnn Gerber came in with her hidden camera/audio.  We were unable to recover our surveillance video, since we hadn't become aware of ABC 4's attempt to expose there footage to the public until April 16th.  Our consultant on duty at that time, was questioned about a possible encounter with a woman "undercover".  She remembered a day a few weeks prior being "grilled" by a woman who asked so many questions in a leading manner that our employee became suspicious. Ms. Gerber seemed intent on trying to get our employee to use the word "safe".  We should add, our consultant still did not say that any were "safe".  The footage from the news report was also creatively edited as to not reveal the whole encounter, of course.  We wanted to provide you with our surveillance video of Ms. Gerber's visit, but as before noted, the footage is no longer available.  After watching the news report, and finding Ms. Gerber was the undercover source for ABC 4 News, we searched our database for her by name and age.  Our records do not contain any information on Ms. Gerber.  Ms. Gerber also states flat out that, "because at 24 I got it, it was because of a tanning bed", but in the story from 2007, (linked to above) this is undetermined because, "she wanted to keep her 'summer color'",indicating she did some tanning in the natural sunlight.

Addressing the doctor in the news story claims about "profiteering on the backs of young peoples health".  Tell that to your fraternal brother's and sister's in the dermatology industry!  Again, check out the links in the research link above.  It may come as a surprise.  And, since Ms. Gerber had previously partnered with the Huntsman Cancer Institute the doctor should have been aware of her.

As to the Utah Department of Health Representative, which mysteriously is not included in the written form of ABC 4's story, stated in the hit piece that, "we have a lot of educating to do with individuals that work in tanning facilities".  This may come as a shock to the UDH Representative, but all tanning representatives have to be licensed by the SLVHD and are given a tanning certificate to prove they were educated by them, tested, paid their fees and obtained a license.  And that her statement, "you're just writing yourself a prescription for cancer" is incriminating if not libelous.  Further that, "the right information is just not getting out in order for you to make an informed decision", re quoted by Ms. Conway is further proof of the UDH Representative lack of knowledge of what the requirements are to come into compliance with state regulation, which includes signage of the state regulation warning for UV Radiation, and every waiver filled out and signed by our clients contain the states words "SLVHD deems tanning is a risk to your health and informs you of potential negative health effects related to ultraviolet exposure, including: Increased risk of skin cancer later in life. Increased risk of skin thinning and premature aging and possible activation of some viral conditions.  Tanning may be inadvisable during pregnancy".  And in every room we also have a detailed posting SLVHD requires.  We have also been known to tell people who seem overly concerned that, "maybe tanning is not for you, maybe you should try the spray tan".  By entering our facility you are not held captive! You have the freedom to choose, and this is done by everyone who comes through our doors!  Maybe the UDH Representative should bone up on all the requirements that have to be met by the state in order to do business, and it includes an on site inspection before a business license is issued! And every year after that.


Conclusion:
It's not hard to educate yourself about tanning.  It may be harder to be an honest reporter/cameraman.  Putting small business out of business, as noted in this story, a small media's dream!

Again, as Sir. Walter Scott said,

Yet Clare's sharp questions must I shun
Must separate Constance from the nun

Now watch our video in which Kylie Conway and her Cameraman are invited into our establishment and continue to record, we think, audio & video.


Video is broadcast in double time for your viewing convenience.
The visit was approximately 10 minutes.

On a positive note:  We want to provide our clients with a good experience when they are here.  We encourage them to do research on their own, as well as asking questions, to decide if using a sunbed is right for them.  If you still don't feel comfortable getting in a sunbed, use our spray tan, or any of our sunless products.  More information on these subjects can be found on our website www.sunsabeach.com.

Tanners of All Ages...Come One Come All!


Tanning has been given a bad rap for the last 25 years!  Although it has it's benefits, the myths are as hard to overcome as the global warming hoax.  It may take a WikiLeak to overcome.  Once again, tanning is being attacked, as well as parental rights on the national and state front.

Utah legislators voted on a bill this session that will override parental consent that, by the way is already regulated by the state, and require anyone under 18 to have a parent accompany them to each tanning session and sign a waiver at each instance.  Regulation already exists that require a parent or guardian permission to use a tanning facility.  Physician/Fitness Center assisted use of a tanning unit is still exempt. (Same equipment, different facility,).  Apparently, a doctors note legitimizes using the same equipment in a medical facility.  As with the Obama Health Care Mandate, Fitness Centers & Doctor's are exempt and legitimized, Tanning Salons are stigmatized!  The Tan Tax initiated in July 2010 is a good example of the double standard.  

Although people of all ages are prescribed tanning for many health problems,including Vitamin D deficiency (10 minutes is all you need to combat it), media of all types, refuses to recognize these benefits and continues to create negative advertising to perpetuate the myths.  There is still hope to overcome the negative press and myths.  Oprah's beloved Dr Oz is even taking a second look.  Guarantee if your local news reports something, it will be one sided.  There are resources to help get the truth about tanning out there, and I applaud there efforts.

As a business owner in Utah, what I thought would be a simple business to start as a family business, has turned out to be more difficult that expected, and now with the government further regulating our industry whether state or federal it seams they would like to put us out of business.  It is easier for a young woman under the age of 18 to purchase birth control and the morning after pill (RU-486) without her parents permission than it is to get a tan, weather recommended by a physician to combat SAD or Achene!  Something is wrong with government overriding parental consent on either of these subjects.

Please Help Fight Unfair Tanning Restrictions in Utah:

Please encourage your friends and family to help fight this legislation.
Facebook & Twitter

Thanks!

The Fight Goes On!
Here is the latest...

Utah Legislative Alert
Help Defeat the Utah’s Teen Tanning Restrictions
March 1, 2012
Attention Utah Indoor Tanning Professional!
We encountered a major setback yesterday when the Utah House passed a bill requiring a parent to be present each time anyone under the age of 18 suntans in your store.  This action sends the legislation to Governor Herbert and we are urging the Governor to veto this outrageous  intrusion of the state into our private lives.
We have set up two new links, one for business owners and employees and one for customers. 
   
Business owner and Employees Against Utah’s Teen Tanning Restrictions
Citizens Against Utah’s Teen Tanning Restrictions
To get the numbers we need for a veto, it is imperative that you get your customers involved.  Even if your customers don’t have children, this type of legislation should concern them.  What’s next?  A doctor’s note to suntan? 

Please read the Comments for further understanding.  Remember the words of Pastor Martin Niemöller :

First they came for the communists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist.
Then they came for the trade unionists,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Jew.
Then they came for me
and there was no one left to speak out for me.
Let Freedom Ring!

Online Indoor Tanning Lotion Sales Hurt Brick & Mortar Businesses

You indoor tanners, you've patronized your local tanning establishment and at, some point, made a tanning lotion purchase.  Prices run the gamut.  You don't have to spend a lot to get results when using lotion.  The better quality the ingredients, the more you'll spend.  The truth is, adding a lotion helps you achieve your results faster at a rate of 60% more than you would without lotion.

You decide that your spending to much, your friends say, "don't pay the salon prices, I paid a fraction of the price for my lotion online", so you venture to the Internet looking to "score big" at some of the "big name" online retailers.  "That's a great price", you say, "how can I go wrong"?  You make your purchase and wait for your lotion to arrive.  On your next visit to your tanning establishment you're feeling pretty good, and your thinking..."gotcha"!  "I didn't have to pay salon price for 'my' lotion"!  New Sunshine Products is informing those who make online purchases from anyone that is not a certified salon, that these products are often counterfeit, contaminated, old or expired products that may not be safe to use.  The reality is online lotion sales are hurting brick and mortar stores and effecting their livelihood, and in the end, effect tanning prices overall.

New Sunshine Products manufactures some of the top selling brands in Indoor Tanning Lotions.  Names like Designer Skin, Swedish Beauty, Australian Gold and California Tan.  They are trying to educate customers and combat these illegal sales, as their products are designated as being sold exclusively in brick and mortar salons.

Dear Valued Customers:
We want to thank you for choosing a professional tanning salon that offers one or more of our products in its salon. For several years, we have followed a salon only distribution policy, which means that our products are prohibited from being sold outside of professional tanning salons or directly to consumers online. We ask for your support in purchasing your lotions from your local salon. You may ask, "Why?
First we believe our products produce optimum results when chosen and sold by trained tanning salon professionals who best understand clients' tanning needs and objectives. These salons professionals are trained by our training staff and will ensure that you get the best product suited for your skin type and tanning needs.
Second, products which you may find online are many times counterfeit, contaminated, old or expired products that may not be safe to use. We often receive reports from dissatisfied consumers who have purchased products outside of their professional tanning salon, only to find it to be not genuine. Purchasing lotions from your tanning salon ensures that not only your salon, but the manufacturer, stands behind the quality of the product.
We thank you for your support of our brand and your local tanning salon.
Sincerely,

Tracy Ring
Vice President of U.S. Sales Indoor
