1. Connect the power cord to the luminaire body and the wall socket (A). Ensure that
cooling air can flow freely through the treatment device.
2. Use the RED (red light) and NIR (near infrared) buttons to start the desired light
treatment. You can turn on both at the same time.
3. Place the device 10–50 cm from the exposed area of skin where you want the light
treatment to be applied (B). If you wish, you can close your eyes or wear protective
glasses during light therapy.
4. The recommended treatment time is approximately 2–10 minutes per treatment
area. A longer treatment session does not increase the effect but may erase the benefit
gained.
5. You can also hang the device using cables (E).
6. Red light is only permitted in dry rooms and should not be used in bathrooms, saunas
or other damp areas.
Red light is recommended for daily use, or at least 2–5 times a week. The positive effects
of red light therapy may require continual use for 8 to 12 weeks.
Red light therapy involves red light (600-700 nm), which is one of the wavelengths of
sunlight and near infrared (850 nm), which is invisible to the naked eye. Red light therapy
is based on the effect of light applied locally to the tissue. Light therapy activates cells
and enhances their regeneration (photobiomodulation).
The wavelength affects how deeply the light reaches the tissues. Most light wavelengths,
such as ultraviolet and blue, do not extend beyond the skin's surface layers or are
absorbed in them completely. Red light and near-infrared light penetrate more deeply
than the surface of the skin, thus reaching the cell mitochondria, which are responsible
for cellular respiration. Cellular energy production (ATP) is activated as the cells receive
more nutrition and the body functions more efficiently.
Red light has an effect on the surface layers of the skin and near infrared has an effect
deeper than the surface layer, for example on the muscles and joints.
Clinical studies have found no undesirable side effects of red light therapy or overdoses
of it. Red light therapy, which does not use dangerous UV rays or excess heat, has been
proven a safe treatment option.
