Q: Should I wear eye protection?
A: Eye protection is not required or necessary. However, we don
’
t recommend
looking directly at the LEDs because it can sometimes be uncomfortable. With
that said, your eyes typically become accustomed to the light and it is then OK to
open your eyes, as long as you dont feel uncomfortable.
Q: Why aren’t the infrared LEDs working?
A: I cant see them. Near infrared (NIR) light is actually not visible to the naked human
eye. It is outside of the visual spectrum, and as a result, it cannot be seen.
However, there is a very slight glow that comes from the LEDs, especially in dark
conditions, so if you are concerned the NIR LEDs are really not working, you can
test them that way.
Q: Can children use the device?
A:
Yes, children can use the device under adult supervision. Never use the device on
infants, though. If a child is older than 12 years old, they may follow the previously
referenced treatment times. If a child is younger than 12 years old, they should opt
for half the dose that would be recommended for adults.
Q: When can I expect results?
A: Results vary depending on goals and treatment consistency. With that being said,
many people will experience benefits such as increased muscle recovery, relief of
pain and increased wound healing relatively quickly. However, more systemic
benefits such as enhanced skin health, increased energy, improved hormonal
health and increased quality of sleep may take 8-12 weeks of consistent use.
Using your device every day will maximize the rate of response and healing. It is
very important to be consistent with red light therapy.
Q: Does red light therapy interfere with the medications?
A: Red and near infrared light therapy has been proven in thousands of clinical
studies and peer reviewed clinical trials to be not only safe but also effective.
However, if you use medications such as Tetracycline, Digoxin, Retin A, and/or
other photo sensitizing drugs, we recommend consulting with your doctor or
health care provider before using the device.
