Coastal living means real hours in the sun. Red light is among the most extensively studied wavelengths in dermatology for collagen, tone and texture.
Read the research summaryRed light therapy — photobiomodulation — works by delivering specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light that are absorbed by the mitochondria inside your cells, supporting the way those cells produce energy. It is a wellness therapy, not a cure, and no result is guaranteed. Our benefits overview covers the full range of what the evidence addresses.
A town that lives outdoors
South Seaside Park embraces a wellness-oriented lifestyle, with residents frequently engaging in outdoor activities such as swimming, surfing, and jogging along the boardwalk. While the town is primarily residential and seasonal, nearby communities offer fitness centers and yoga studios, and the local culture prioritizes healthy living through beach recreation and fresh, coastal cuisine. Medical services are accessible in the greater Berkeley Township area, supporting the health needs of both year-round and seasonal residents.
That rhythm — long days outside, then real recovery — is exactly the pattern whole-body light therapy is built around. Sessions are short, comfortable and require no downtime afterward.

What the session is actually like
The NovoTHOR® is a whole-body device, which is the practical difference between a studio visit and a handheld panel at home. Instead of treating one sore spot at a time, you lie down inside it and light reaches your entire body in a single session.
- Before you begin
- First-time guests get a full walkthrough of the device and what to expect, with time to ask questions before anything starts.
- During the session
- You rest while the panels do the work. There is no heat to endure, nothing injected, and nothing applied to the skin.
- Afterward
- No recovery period. Guests head straight back to the beach, the gym, or the rest of the day.
- Over time
- Light therapy rewards consistency more than intensity. Most guests settle into a regular cadence and reassess after several weeks rather than judging from one visit.
