Dr. Ashley Spooner talks about dental sleep medicine, oral appliances, and photobiomodulation for better sleep

Dr. Emily Parke talks about functional medicine, photobiomodulation, and reversing chronic disease at the root

In this episode of Innovators of Health, Dr. Emily Parke — a board-certified functional medicine physician and former anesthesiologist at the Cleveland Clinic — shares how burnout inside traditional medicine led her toward root cause care, and why photobiomodulation has become one of her most-recommended clinical tools. Unlike conventional medicine, functional medicine asks why symptoms are happening — diving deep into nutrition, sleep, hormones, biochemistry, and environmental factors to treat the whole person, not just the diagnosis. From her own experience with sleep disruption and low back pain during perimenopause, Dr. Parke began using the Redvive 300 and hasn't missed an evening session since. She's seen measurable results in her own Oura Ring sleep data — and in her patients — across pain management, autoimmune conditions, post-surgical recovery, athletic performance, and complex undiagnosed skin conditions. Her message to skeptical practitioners is simple: try it yourself first. The consistency you build personally is what makes you a credible advocate for your patients. KEY TAKEAWAYS 🔍 Root cause first: Functional medicine asks why — not just what — and that's what separates it from symptom-based care 🔴 PBM is a clinical tool, not a trend: Redvive's FDA-approved Class II designation separates it from the crowded consumer red light market 🧬 Mitochondria drive everything: Better mitochondrial function means more ATP — and more ATP means better healing, recovery, and energy across virtually every condition 😴 Sleep is the gateway: For many patients, improved sleep quality is the first measurable benefit — and Dr. Parke has the Oura Ring data to prove it 🦠 Autoimmune + inflammatory conditions respond: From lupus to undiagnosed skin conditions, reducing systemic inflammation is where PBM delivers consistent results ⏱️ 5–15 minutes, once or twice daily: That's the protocol. No added chair time, no complexity, no barrier to patient adoption 🧠 The cap adds a new tier: Increased cerebral blood flow, cognitive health, hair loss — the scalp applicator opens doors beyond the panel alone 👩 Perimenopause is an underserved use case: Sleep disruption, hormonal shifts, and recovery demands make perimenopausal women ideal candidates for daily red light use 📋 Try it yourself first: Dr. Parke's credibility with patients comes from using Redvive personally, every day, since July — and seeing her own results 🌱 Prevention is the long game: In functional medicine, the goal isn't just treating disease — it's building the resilience to avoid it For licensed healthcare professionals; not medical advice.

Dr. Kevin Logan talks about red-light therapy, chronic pain, and clinic-to-home care

In this episode of Innovators of Health, Dr. Kevin Logan breaks down why the future of care doesn’t stop at the clinic door. He shares how integrating photobiomodulation (red/near-infrared light) through RedVive enables true clinic-to-home healing, where consistency drives real outcomes. From chronic pain and energy deficits to immune and lymphatic support, Dr. Logan explains how PBM enhances existing treatments while building patient trust, adherence, and long-term results. This conversation is a practical guide for clinicians looking to scale care, improve outcomes, and introduce a low-friction, high-impact modality into modern practice. Key Takeaways *  🏠 Healing happens at home: PBM extends care beyond the clinic for real-world results  *  🔴 Consistency is the multiplier: Daily use drives better outcomes than occasional treatment  *  🤝 Experience builds trust: Clinicians who use it personally educate patients more effectively  *  🧰 Stack your therapies: PBM enhances rehab, regenerative care, and pain protocols  *  ⚡ Energy = healing: Mitochondrial support improves recovery, vitality, and function  *  💥 Chronic pain support: Patients report meaningful reductions in long-standing pain  *  🧬 Whole-body impact: Supports lymphatic flow, immune function, and systemic health  *  📚 Education drives adoption: Clear protocols = better adherence and outcomes  *  🛡️ Preventative tool: PBM isn’t just reactive—it’s a long-term wellness strategy  *  📈 Scalable care model: Clinic→home PBM improves outcomes and practice efficiency The Innovators of Health podcast is brought to you by Redvive and hosted by Jaydev Karande and Dr. Rahul Desai.

Dr. Steve Derrington Talks Sports Medicine, Photobiomodulation, and Regenerative Care Beyond Surgery

In this episode of Innovators of Health, Dr. Steve Derrington traces his path from conventional orthopedics to a patient-first regenerative model. He explains where photobiomodulation (red/near-infrared light) fits alongside orthobiologics to reduce pain, speed recovery, and keep athletes—and active patients—moving without defaulting to surgery or steroids. Through practical case examples and clinic-to-home protocols, Dr. Derrington shows how to empower patients with clear options, measurable outcomes, and safer adjuncts that scale inside busy sports-medicine workflows. Streamlined Takeaways (with emojis) * 🏃 Beyond the scalpel: PBM + orthobiologics offer non-surgical paths for sport and daily life. * 🔴 Energy for healing: Red/NIR light supports tissue recovery and pain control when dosed well. * 🧰 Stacked protocols: Layer PBM with rehab and biologics to amplify results. * 🧑‍⚕️ Empower the patient: Teach options, set expectations, and track simple metrics. * 🏠 Clinic → home: Short, repeatable at-home PBM boosts adherence and durability. * 🧠 Open mindset: Evaluate new modalities with evidence, safety, and workflow fit. * 🤝 Team approach: Community, coaching, and consistent follow-up drive long-term wins. This podcast is hosted by Jaydev Karande and Dr. Rahul Desai with Redvive.

Dr. Ashley Spooner talks about dental sleep medicine, oral appliances, and photobiomodulation for better sleep

In this episode of Innovators of Health, Dr. Ashley Spooner unpacks the foundations of dental sleep medicine—why sleep is a vital sign, how to spot risk beyond weight and snoring, and where oral appliance therapy fits as a patient-friendly alternative to CPAP. She shares practical protocols and lifestyle tactics that improve sleep quality, plus how photobiomodulation (red/NIR light) can support airway tissues, reduce inflammation, and extend results from clinic to home. The discussion focuses on awareness, measurable outcomes, and step-by-step adoption for clinicians. Takeaways * 😴 Sleep = vital sign: Poor sleep drives systemic risk; screen beyond BMI and snoring. * 🦷 Appliances that patients use: Oral appliance therapy can be an effective CPAP alternative for many. * 🔦 Adjunct tech: Laser and photobiomodulation may support airway function, healing, and sleep quality. * 🏠 Clinic → home: Simple at-home PBM routines can extend treatment gains and adherence. * 🧠 Educate & empower: Raise sleep-disorder awareness and set clear expectations for therapy. * 🥗 Lifestyle levers: Caffeine timing, late-night eating, and habits meaningfully impact sleep. * 📊 Measure what matters: Track sleep patterns to personalize care and refine protocols.

Dr. Mark Lewis talks about mitochondrial medicine, photobiomodulation, and regenerative care you can scale

In this episode of Innovators of Health, Dr. Mark Lewis explains why the future of regenerative care starts at the mitochondria—and how photobiomodulation (red/NIR light) fits into evidence-guided protocols that improve recovery, reduce pain, and extend care from clinic to home. He breaks down wavelength/dose fundamentals (with patient-friendly analogies), shares outcomes from integrating RedVive into treatment packages, and outlines the mindset shift clinicians need to adopt energy-based therapies ethically, effectively, and at scale. Key Takeaways (with emojis) * 🔴 Energy-first healing: PBM boosts mitochondrial ATP—better inputs, better recovery. * 🧪 Science, not hype: Class II device, studied wavelengths + dosing you can standardize. * 🧠 Mindset shift: Evaluate new tech with protocols and metrics—not marketing. * 🧰 Stack & scale: Pair PBM with regenerative/rehab plans for additive outcomes. * 🏠 Clinic → home: Simple at-home routines extend benefits and adherence. * 🗣️ Teach simply: Clear analogies turn complex cellular concepts into “I get it.” * 🙋 Walk the walk: Clinician self-use builds credibility and patient trust. * 🎯 Set expectations: Outcomes vary—dose, timing, and consistency matter.
