Eligibility
The therapeutic technologies used in the Healing Room, and the conditions they are used to address.
The Healing Room uses three documented therapeutic modalities, delivered through a single multi-modality therapeutic device. Each modality has its own specifications, mechanism of action, and intended therapeutic applications.
Clients and health plan administrators can use this information when evaluating sessions against IRS Publication 502 and Section 213(d) guidelines for qualifying medical expenses.
Pulsed Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMF)
6 PEMF coils, 1–30 Hz frequency range, 3 Gauss peak intensity, sine and square waveform.
Pulsed electromagnetic fields are applied to the body to stimulate cellular repair processes and support circulation.
- Chronic pain
- Inflammation
- Headaches
- Injury recovery
- Neuromuscular function
-
Systematic review of 9 RCTs (n=420) on PEMF for non-specific low back pain, showing benefits in pain reduction and physical function —

Far Infrared Therapy (FIR)
8–10 µm peak wavelength, heat output to 158°F (70°C).
Far infrared wavelengths penetrate soft tissue, increasing local circulation and producing therapeutic heat at the treatment site.
- Joint pain associated with arthritis
- Muscle tension and injury recovery
- Chronic pain
- Neuromuscular performance
-
Systematic review of infrared radiation across 13 clinical studies covering osteoarthritis and chronic low back pain, finding consistent pain reduction —
MDPI/PubMed, 2022.
View Study → -
Randomized controlled trial finding far infrared lamp therapy accelerated recovery of muscle strength and proprioception, and reduced muscle soreness by 55–60%, after exercise-induced muscle damage —
PubMed, 2023.

Randomized crossover study finding a single infrared sauna session improved recovery of neuromuscular performance and reduced muscle soreness after resistance exercise —
NCBI/PMC, 2022.
View Study →
Photon Light Therapy
60 photon diodes, 660nm wavelength.
Exposure to 660nm red-spectrum light supports cellular energy production and is used to reduce localized inflammation.
- Localized inflammation
- Adjunct pain relief alongside PEMF and FIR
-
Study finding 660nm photobiomodulation significantly reduced accumulation of inflammatory cells in treated tissue —
NCBI/PMC, 2025.
View Study → -
Narrative review describing 660nm red-wavelength light as stimulating cellular photobiomodulation response, distinct from and more durable than near-infrared wavelengths —
PubMed, 2021.

Documentation for HSA / FSA Claims
Clients seeking to apply session costs toward an HSA or FSA should confirm eligibility with their own health plan administrator and retain appropriate documentation.
Confirm Eligibility
Confirm eligibility with your own health plan administrator, as coverage determinations are made individually.
Request a Letter of Medical Necessity
Request a Letter of Medical Necessity from a licensed clinician identifying the specific modality and condition being treated.
Retain Your Receipt
Retain an itemized receipt from each session. Itemized receipts are available on request.
A licensed clinician may identify the specific modality — PEMF, FIR, or Photon Light Therapy — and the condition it is being used to treat. Clients should retain this documentation and provide it to their HSA/FSA administrator if requested.
Keep Your Documentation Together
This document is provided for informational purposes and does not constitute tax, legal, insurance, or medical advice. Eligibility is determined by each client's health plan administrator and depends on the applicable plan terms, documentation, and requirements. Clients should confirm eligibility before purchasing services or submitting a claim.
