Much to Consider About Red Light Therapy

As a nurse, I'm always fascinated by new therapies proclaiming to do a lot, and I thought this book would be a good introduction to this particular modality, which I had never heard of. Despite its somewhat overblown subtitle, I thought the author actually did a decent job explaining red light therapy’s possibilities, sharing research to both bolster some claims and refute others. Usually, books like this only promote the good stuff. The author explained the potential benefits and also what you must be careful of, like protecting your eyes and using a red light therapy device at the appropriate distance. The author discusses whether to have this done by a dermatologist versus doing it at home. Even after listening to the book, I'm not quite sure if I'm wholly sold on it as a therapy, but I certainly know a lot more about it, including the pros and cons of the therapy itself as well as of different types of devices.

The narrator, unfortunately, was exceedingly disappointing. I recently listened to one other audiobook by her, and this book suffered the same faults. While I don't know for certain, I believe it is the narrator's responsibility to appropriately edit the sound files before being returned to the author and uploaded to Audible, but this narrator did not fully do so. In several places, you could hear her turning pages. In many more places, the narrator clearly made mistakes or was not pleased with how she said things, and so they were said again; the incorrect first one was not edited out. It wasn't bad at first but became increasingly worse as the book went along. I know Audible checks sound files before they get uploaded, and theoretically, the author should have listened to the entire book as well, so all these errors should have been caught and corrected before they came out in the version you download from Audible. Perhaps this review will motivate either Audible or the author to have the sound files corrected and re-uploaded so that the next person's experience is not quite as bad as my own. I certainly would not recommend anyone use this narrator until she learns to take the time to fully and completely edit her work.

Red light therapy works

This book covered uses, how it works, and studies of how red light therapy has been used.
It covers the documented advantages of using this therapeutic modality. It was very interesting. I’ve been using red light therapy for a couple of years, and this book supports my personal findings.

Very sound and thorough advice

Very fact filled, I slowed voice down to 0.95.
I am learning more than 20 YouTube videos.

Excellent Content and Narration

I found this book to be top-notch. Chatwin's command of the subject is excellent, and the recommendations for red light therapy use are spot-on. Compared to some of the other Audible books on this topic, I found this one to be far superior.

I'm not sure why the other reviewer rated the performance negatively, because the narration was smooth and easy to listen to, with none of the problems mentioned. Perhaps that was for an earlier recording, because I certainly didn't hear any of these things and found it to be a delightful audible experience -- again, far superior to some of the other audiobooks available here.
