Has anyone used red light therapy for cancer neuropathy and pain?
Community Member
2 months agoHi. I am triple positive for right breast cancer. Beginning 4/7/25 had 6 rounds of chemo TCHP every 21 days with last one on 7/25/25. Will continue every 21 days with immunotherapy with Herceptin for the HER2 diagnosis until April 2026. Lumpectomy and 4 lymph nodes removed 8/21/25. Post op lab shows clear margins with no cancer. I don’t know next treatment plan until after 9/16/25. Question: Has anyone ever used Red light therapy for cancer - neuropathy, pain, cell damage, skin damage etc???? If so which therapy light did you use and did it help?
Accepted Answer
Red light therapy is something that comes up fairly often in cancer communities, and it's great that you're exploring different options for managing treatment side effects. Many community members have shared experiences with various light therapy devices, though results tend to vary from person to person. It would be wonderful to hear from others who have tried this approach - sharing specific device recommendations and honest feedback about what worked (or didn't work) could really help guide your decision and benefit other members facing similar challenges.
