Meet the MBJ Bio-Energy Light Therapy Table
We’re proud to introduce the newest addition to Santa Monica Massage and Reflexology Center — the MBJ Bio-Energy Light Therapy Table. This isn’t a tanning bed. It isn’t a sauna. It’s something genuinely new: a full-body immersive therapy experience that layers seven distinct bio-energy technologies into a single 40-minute session.
At its core, the MBJ table bridges the wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine with today’s most advanced light and energy science. Concepts like qi circulation, meridian balance, and whole-body resonance aren’t discarded here — they’re validated and amplified. Red and Near-Infrared Light combine with Terahertz waves, Far Infrared Rays, Negative Oxygen Ions, Rotating Magnetic Fields, Graphene energy enhancement, Ozone, and Acoustic Resonance to create an environment your cells recognize and respond to.
Our goal at SMMRC has always been to turn the body back on. The MBJ table is the most powerful tool we’ve ever added to help us do exactly that. Whether you come in jet-lagged, burned out, sore, or simply ready to feel your best, this experience meets you where you are and brings you somewhere better.
Finally. Real Sleep. Naturally.
Most of us live under blue-spectrum artificial light all day long — phones, screens, LEDs — and it’s quietly dismantling our sleep. Blue light suppresses melatonin, the hormone that governs our entire circadian system. The MBJ table does the opposite. Its Red and Near-Infrared Light spectrum actively supports the body’s natural melatonin production without stimulating the pathways that keep you awake. You don’t have to take anything. Your own biology does the work.
For travelers, the timing of your session matters — and we’ll guide you. Eastward travel (compressing your day) benefits most from a morning session, which reinforces an earlier wake signal. Westward travel (extending your day) pairs best with an evening session to ease the transition. The result is a significantly shorter adjustment window — often cutting jet lag recovery from days to hours. The MBJ table is quickly becoming the preferred pre- and post-travel ritual for SMMRC clients who cross multiple time zones regularly.
The science is clear. Research published in the Journal of Clinical Sleep Medicine found that near-infrared light therapy improved sleep quality, deep relaxation, and next-day functional performance in study participants. A 14-day controlled athlete study found measurable improvements in both sleep quality scores and serum melatonin levels following regular near-infrared light exposure. This isn’t a sleep supplement. This is your nervous system remembering what it already knows how to do.
"Near-infrared light therapy produced significant improvements in sleep quality, relaxation, and next-day performance."

Seven Technologies. One Seamless Experience.
The MBJ table doesn't rely on a single modality — it stacks seven clinically recognized bio-energy technologies that work in concert. Here's what's happening while you rest.
1. Rotating Magnetic Field
Uses precisely calibrated magnetic rotation to stimulate microcirculation at the cellular level. This helps reduce blood viscosity, clear metabolic waste from tissues, and deliver fresh oxygen and nutrients throughout the body — from the inside out.
2. Far Infrared Rays
Gentle, deep-penetrating warmth that reaches below the skin's surface to activate cells and support immune function. Far infrared has a long track record in wellness for its ability to stimulate circulation, ease tension in connective tissue, and promote full-body warmth without excessive surface heat.
3. Terahertz Waves
Terahertz frequency sits remarkably close to the body's own cellular resonance frequency, which is why it feels so natural. This technology generates gentle internal heat that supports the body's self-healing processes without disturbing surrounding healthy tissue. It penetrates through clothing, making it effective even in a wrapped or draped session.
4. Negative Oxygen Ions
Called "vitamins in the air" by researchers who study mountain, ocean, and forest environments, negative ions have measurable effects on the nervous system and cardiovascular health. Each MBJ session delivers up to 2 billion negative oxygen ions — calming an overactive nervous system, supporting healthier circulation, and priming the body for deeper, more restorative sleep.
5. Graphene
Graphene's exceptional conductivity is used here as an energy-distribution layer that enhances the absorption and efficiency of the other modalities. It also supports the body's natural detoxification processes by improving how tissues interact with the surrounding therapeutic field.
6. Ozone
A targeted, low-level ozone layer creates an antibacterial and anti-inflammatory microenvironment within the table. This contributes to a clean, sanitary session while providing mild anti-inflammatory support for tissues that are already being activated by heat and light.
7. Acoustic Resonance
Sound-wave vibration is transmitted through the table's surface at frequencies calibrated to support enzymatic activity and cellular function. Like tuning an instrument, acoustic resonance helps the body's systems synchronize — supporting everything from digestive function to tissue repair.

This Experience Was Built for You
The MBJ table is for anyone who takes their wellbeing seriously. Here’s who benefits most.
Frequent International Travelers
You cross time zones for work or adventure — and your body pays for it. The MBJ table is the fastest natural tool we know of for resetting a disrupted circadian clock. Come in before or after a long-haul flight and feel the difference.
Athletes and Fitness Enthusiasts
You push hard. Recovery is where performance is actually built. The MBJ table supports faster muscle repair, reduces inflammation, increases cellular energy, and helps you sleep deeper — so you come back stronger.
Anyone Struggling with Sleep
Whether it’s chronic insomnia, inconsistent sleep patterns, or just the low-grade exhaustion of modern life, the MBJ table helps your body remember how to rest. Multiple sessions build on each other; many clients notice a change within their first week.
Busy Professionals and Executives
Your output depends on your clarity. When stress, screen time, and pressure compound, the nervous system starts working against you. A 20-minute session is one of the most efficient resets available — no prep, no recovery time, just results.
Wellness-Focused Individuals
You already prioritize your health. The MBJ table layers elegantly into a practice that includes massage, nutrition, fitness, and intentional rest. Think of it as the missing piece that amplifies everything else.
Post-Surgery or Injury Recovery
Please consult your physician before beginning sessions if you are recovering from surgery or managing an active medical condition. Many clients find the MBJ table’s gentle warmth and circulation support useful during recovery — always in coordination with their care team.
Anyone Who Wants to Look and Feel Their Best
No training required. No specific condition to address. If you want more energy, better skin, calmer nerves, and deeper sleep — this is for you. That’s most of us.
Your Session, Step by Step
Curious what it actually feels like? Here's exactly what to expect from the moment you arrive.
1
Arrival & Check-In
Check in at the front desk as you would for any SMMRC service. Your therapist will briefly review the experience with you, answer any questions, and confirm whether you'd like to pair the session with a massage (highly recommended — more on that below). You'll be escorted to where the MBJ table is set up and warmed. The environment is calm, clean, and completely relaxed.
2
What to Wear
For the best experience, wear minimal or thin clothing — the red light's benefits are maximized with direct skin contact. Light-colored, natural cotton is perfectly acceptable if you'd prefer to stay dressed. You'll be private and comfortable either way. Eye protection is provided and must be worn during your session.
3
Inside the Table
You'll lie comfortably inside the clamshell-style table as it closes gently around you. The Terahertz and Far Infrared technology penetrates even light clothing, so every session delivers therapeutic benefit regardless of what you're wearing.
4
The Session
Your 40 minute session begins. Expect a gentle, enveloping warmth — not hot, not jarring. Many clients say it feels like lying in warm sunlight, but deeper. It's normal to feel very relaxed, even drowsy. Some clients fall asleep.
5
Pairing with a Massage
The MBJ table is ideally experienced before your massage, not after. The warmth and circulation activation it produces means your muscles are already open, your nervous system is already calm, and your therapist's work goes deeper from the very first minute. Think of it as the world's most effective pre-massage warm-up. Add-on pricing is available — see Pricing below.
6
After Your Session
You'll feel relaxed, warm, and clear-headed. There's no downtime, no recovery period. Drink water, enjoy your massage if you've added one, and carry that reset into the rest of your day.

Questions? We Have Answers.
Do I need to disrobe?
Not unless you want to. The Terahertz technology penetrates through light clothing, so you'll still receive the full thermal and frequency benefits while dressed. That said, the red and near-infrared light components work best with direct skin contact — so if you're comfortable in minimal clothing, you'll get the maximum experience. Whatever feels right for you is the right choice.
How long is a session?
Sessions run 40 minutes. Including check-in and a brief orientation, plan for about 60 minutes total for your first visit.
How often should I come?
For general wellness and sleep support, 2–3 sessions per week is a great starting point. Athletes or clients recovering from specific concerns may benefit from daily sessions initially. Many regular clients use it as a weekly wellness ritual. We'll help you figure out the right cadence for your goals.
Can I add this to my massage?
Absolutely — and we actively recommend it. The MBJ table as a pre-massage add-on ($25) primes your muscles and nervous system so your massage therapist's work is more effective from the start. It's quickly become one of our most popular combinations.
Is it safe?
Yes. The MBJ table uses established, non-invasive light, heat, and frequency technologies. Sessions are conducted in a private setting under our guidance. As with any wellness modality, we recommend consulting your physician first if you are pregnant, have a pacemaker, are recovering from surgery, or have an active medical condition. If you're unsure, just ask us — we're happy to talk through your situation.
What should I wear?
Light, thin, preferably light-colored clothing — or nothing at all beneath a wrap. Natural cotton works well. Avoid dark, thick, or synthetic fabrics, which can limit infrared penetration. Leave jewelry and metal accessories off for your session.
How soon will I notice results?
Many clients feel noticeably more relaxed and clearer immediately after their first session. Sleep improvement is often reported within the first 3–5 sessions and for some even after the first session. Skin and physical recovery benefits typically become more apparent over 2–4 weeks of consistent use. Like massage, the benefits compound — the more regularly you come, the more your body holds onto the reset.
Is this the same as a regular red light therapy bed?
No — and the difference is significant. Standard red light beds deliver one modality: red or near-infrared light. The MBJ table layers seven technologies simultaneously — Terahertz waves, Far Infrared Rays, Rotating Magnetic Fields, Negative Oxygen Ions, Graphene energy enhancement, Ozone, and Acoustic Resonance — alongside the light therapy. The combined effect is substantially more comprehensive than any single-modality device.
