Twenty minutes, no fuss
Red light therapy — photobiomodulation, if you want the clinical name — uses specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light that reach below the surface of the skin. Those wavelengths are absorbed by the mitochondria inside your cells, the structures that produce the energy your body runs on. The research interest is in how that exposure supports cellular energy production and the body's inflammatory response.
Lie down
You get into the whole-body NovoTHOR® bed fully at rest. Nothing is injected, applied or attached.
Full body
Light reaches your entire body at once rather than one sore spot at a time. There is no heat to tolerate.
Walk out
No downtime. Head to the boat, the gym or back to work the moment you are done.
Red light therapy is a wellness therapy rather than a cure for any condition, and results vary from person to person. The honest version of what the evidence covers lives on our benefits pages.
