How Do I Use My Red Light?

There are many ways to use our lamps at your home. Your treatment can be delivered sitting, lying down, or standing. It’s up to you. Your lamp can be hung above you, placed standing on a table or the floor, or positioned on your bed so you can relax while experiencing the benefits of our lamps.

How Often Should I Use My Lamp?

According to studies, utilizing Red Light Therapy three to seven times a week is when it is most effective. Once you begin to see significant improvements, you can scale back how often you use the treatment.

When Should I Do My Treatment?

The top two considerations are right after you wake up or in the evening before you go to sleep. Studies have shown that there are great benefits to using RLT in the morning can provide a surge of energy to aid you during the day. On the other side, using RLT in the evening has shown a significant chance of improving sleep patterns. The choice is up to you!

Treatment

When should I do my treatment?

This is another question that many tend to ask a lot. In truth, there are some significant benefits attached if you conduct the treatment in the morning and before you go to bed.

Some studies have shown that applying red light therapy in the evening has a significant chance of improving your sleep patterns. At the same time, using it in the morning could provide you with a jolt of energy for the days ahead.

So, these are the two top considerations for you – in the morning or the evening. Ideally, the recommendation will be to give both a try and to see which will work better for your body.

Do I need to cover my eyes?

The lights are bright! While not damaging to the eyes, we recommend you wear some eye protection if staring directly at the light. We have provided eye protectors for you.

How long does it take to start seeing results?

For most people, they’ll start seeing some difference in energy almost immediately; their skin “glow” becomes more noticeable. For dramatic effects, you have to use it for eight weeks consistently.

For joint pains and muscle soreness, you may start seeing result right away. For others, it could take as much as 8 hrs after use for the full effects to come to play.

For a more systemic whole-body wellness—like growing your muscles during strength training—it can take several weeks to see full effects. For best results, we recommend using it 3-7 times a week.

Does too much red light have any adverse effects?

If you apply too much of red light, you’re adding more stress to your cells—and that may be counterproductive. Stick to less than 10-15 mins per area per day to be in the safe zone. Going beyond that limit takes away the positive effects.

Can Red Light Therapy induce detoxification?

If you have been unwell or suffering from symptoms for some time, your body will most likely start to detox with Red Light Therapy. This is a good thing, but it is essential that it is controlled and happens slowly. This is why we recommend you start at half the recommended dosage and gradually build it up over a few weeks. Being tired after treatment is a classic sign of a detox reaction. Hydration is essential for your treatment.

How do I use my Red Light lamp?

Our lamps are light and mobile. You can deliver your treatment in standing, sitting or lying down. You can hang your lamp, place it standing on a table or the floor or even position it on your bed while you lie down and relax.

Our Pro models come with hooks to hang them over any door.

Can I use Red Light Therapy if I am pregnant?

There has been no clinical research with red light therapy treatments on pregnant or nursing subjects. Do not use the device if pregnant or lactating before consulting with your healthcare provider.
