Red & Near‑Infrared - IR Light Therapy

Radiant light for visible results — in just 20 minutes.

Near-Infrared Light (NIR) wavelengths penetrate deeper into the tissue to deliver energy to the body’s cells and can pass through bone to assist with healing deep wounds, muscle aches, nerve injury or joint pain

What it is & what it does

This treatment bathes your body in clinically‑calibrated LED red and near‑infrared (IR/NIR) light. The light is absorbed by the cell’s energy centres (mitochondria), supporting ATP — the usable energy your cells rely on to repair and renew. More cellular energy means better conditions for skin to look fresher, muscles and joints to feel easier, and the whole system to settle.

In short: precisely tuned light that helps your body restore, repair, and rejuvenate.

Also called red light therapy, IR light, and LED light therapy; in clinical settings you may see photobiomodulation (PBM) or low‑level light therapy (LLLT).

How it works

• Two powerful wavelengths

  • Red (≈630–700 nm): Works at the skin’s surface to support collagen, tone and texture.

  • Near‑infrared (NIR) (≈700–1100 nm): Travels deeper into muscles and joints to calm inflammation and speed recovery.

  • Mitochondria & energy (ATP): Light is taken up by mitochondria and can enhance cellular energy (ATP), creating better conditions for repair.

• Comfortably warm, never UV: No tanning or burning — just a soothing, radiant warmth.

• Relaxing session: You lie on a bed under our full‑body light panel while the treatment runs.

What it helps with

You’ll see red and near-infrared light therapy widely discussed on social media; beyond the buzz, clients choose it for:

• Skin glow & collagen support (smoother texture, fresher tone)

• Muscle & joint comfort (everyday aches, stiffness)

• Faster recovery after training or minor strains

• Calmer mood & steadier energy

• Support for wound healing in targeted programs

• Hair‑growth support as part of a wider plan

What to expect in a session

• Session length: 20 minutes.

• Clothing: You lie naked under the full‑body light panel; you are in your own private treatment room.

• Comfort: The light feels radiantly warm and deeply relaxing. We provide eye protection for all sessions.

• Afterwards: No downtime — dress and go.

Pair it with PEMF (optional)

For an elevated experience, add PEMF (pulsed electromagnetic field) therapy beneath you — in the same room, the PEMF bed sits beneath the full‑body light panel (light from above, PEMF from below). This unique combination is exclusive to our space and provides a restorative treatment designed to enhance recovery, relaxation and wellbeing.

Safety & considerations

Red & near‑infrared (IR/NIR) light therapy is non‑invasive and well‑tolerated. Please avoid or check with your clinician first if any of the following apply:

• Pregnancy: not offered at any stage.

• Photosensitive medications or conditions: if you use light‑sensitising medicines (e.g., some antibiotics, retinoids) or have a light‑sensitivity disorder.

• Active skin cancer.

• Seizure disorders triggered by light: please consult your clinician.

• Eye care: We provide eye protection for all sessions and ask you to keep eyes closed during exposure.

Quick answers

• Does it tan or burn? No — there’s no UV in these wavelengths.

• What does it feel like? A gentle, radiant warmth; most people leave feeling calm, more energised, and happier.

• How many sessions will I need? It varies by goal. Many people come once or twice a week — do what you can consistently. If you have particular needs or injuries, we can tailor a plan that’s suitable for you.

• Can I combine it with other therapies? Yes — it pairs well before sauna, massage, and HBOT (hyperbaric oxygen). We generally don’t pair it with float beforehand as your core temperature can get too warm and you may feel cold in the float.

• Is this the same as IR light / LED masks? It’s the same science (IR/NIR), but our full‑body panel delivers clinical‑grade coverage and intensity compared with small home devices.

20 minutes of radiant light — rest, reset, and go.
