Question 1

What is full-body red light therapy?

Accepted Answer

Full-body red light therapy (photobiomodulation) exposes your entire body to clinically studied wavelengths of red and near-infrared light. These wavelengths penetrate skin, muscle, and connective tissue to stimulate cellular energy (ATP) production, improve micro-circulation, reduce inflammation, and accelerate whole-body recovery.

Question 2

What makes Plett Light Therapy’s setup different from standard light therapy panels?

Accepted Answer

Two major upgrades: First, our overhead full-body panel is 1.8m long (whereas shorter single panels cut off coverage at the neck or calves), ensuring complete head-to-toe coverage. Second, you lie directly on a therapeutic Red Light Therapy Mat while the overhead panel shines from above—delivering simultaneous 360° exposure to your front and back so you never have to interrupt your relaxation to flip over.

Question 3

What is the difference between full-body and targeted red light therapy?

Accepted Answer

Full-body red light therapy delivers systemic light exposure across your entire body at once to support overall cellular vitality, nervous system regulation, and multi-muscle recovery. Targeted therapy focuses only on a single isolated joint or spot. With our 1.8m panel and full-body mat, you get both deep local tissue penetration and whole-body systemic benefits in one session.

Question 4

How long is a full-body red light therapy session?

Accepted Answer

Sessions are 20 minutes. Because our dual-surface setup treats both the front and back of your body simultaneously, 20 minutes provides optimal therapeutic light dosage for cellular activity, circulation, and recovery without overexposure or needing double the time to turn around.

Question 5

How often should I do full-body red light therapy?

Accepted Answer

Consistency matters more than intensity. Most clients experience the best results with 2 to 3 sessions per week. Consistent use allows your cells to build cumulative mitochondrial benefits, supporting ongoing tissue recovery, skin health, and nervous system balance.

Question 6

What does a session feel like?

Accepted Answer

During a session, you lie comfortably on our soothing red light mat beneath the 1.8m overhead panel while warm red and near-infrared light surrounds your body. The experience is quiet, gentle, and deeply restorative—many clients describe it as a calm 20-minute reset for both body and mind.

Question 7

What conditions and goals can full-body red light therapy support?

Accepted Answer

Full-body red light therapy may support: whole-body muscle & sports recovery, systemic inflammation and joint comfort, natural collagen production and skin tone, nervous system regulation and sleep quality, and improved blood flow and daily energy levels.

Question 8

Is full-body red light therapy safe?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Red and near-infrared light therapy is a non-invasive, UV-free, and drug-free modality that uses gentle, clinically studied wavelengths of light to stimulate natural cellular processes without damaging tissue. Protective eyewear is provided for your comfort.

Question 9

Can I combine full-body red light therapy with other treatments or training?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Many clients use red light therapy before or after gym workouts, trail running, surfing, cycling, massage therapy, or physiotherapy to prime muscles, enhance circulation, and speed up post-exertion recovery.

Question 10

Do I need to do anything during the session, and how quickly will I notice results?

Accepted Answer

You don’t need to do anything at all—not even turn over! On your first visit, Mandy will give you a personal orientation. Once the 1.8m panel and mat are activated, you simply lie back, close your eyes, and relax. You will notice a sense of warmth and calm immediately after your first session, while deeper cellular benefits build progressively over several weeks of consistent sessions.
