A: Both red and near-infrared light are wavelengths on the electromagnetic spectrum. Red light wavelengths, 600-700nm (nanometers), are absorbed the skin at a high rate. Near-infrared (NIR) wavelengths, 760-1400nm (nanometers), are higher on the electromagnetic spectrum and not visible to the human eye. The human body easily absorbs near-infrared waves up to 1.5 inches into muscle, fat and joints. The glove LED device 10 red-light diodes use 660nm red light which is wavelength that is easily absorbable by the skin. Making it especially effective for improving blood circulation and the overall appearance of skin. The 12 near-infrared (NIR) light diodes use 940nm light, which is an invisible light wavelength that penetrates deeply into tissue, organs, and joints to decrease inflammation, relieve pain, and repair cells.

A: The benefits of red light and near-infrared (NIR) are very similar though red light cells at the surface of the skin and near-infrared light cells up to 1.5 inches below the surface of the skin (your muscles, fat, joints, organs etc). The benefits of red light and near-infrared (NIR) include:

1. Improve skin appearance, including sun damage, scars (including acne scars), burns, cellulite, fine lines and wrinkles.
2. Energize the lymphatic system, aiding in detoxification.
3. Lose inches off the waist, hips, or other area.
4. Decrease pain inflammation and stiffness in joints muscles, and connective tissues.
5. Stimulate collagen and elastin production and cell regeneration, thus improving blood circulation to the skin and the overall appearance of the skin, including reduced cellulite.
6. Reduce symptoms of chronic pain disorders such as tendinitis, arthritis rheumatoid arthritis, and fibromyalgia.
7. Boost immune system.
8. Reduce symptoms of eczema and psoriasis, such as redness, itching, flaking, and swelling.
9. Improve sleep quality and mental clarity and focus.
10. Reduce cortisol and increases serotonin, reducing stress and depression.
11. Promote faster recovery post-workout.

A: It can be used on the shoulders, chest, belly, upper back, neck, head, scalp, thighs, hips legs, feet, arms, and hands. WARNING! Never use it over your eyes, as the lights can damage your eyes.

A: Yes, red light is safe for animals, and are well-tolerated by pets like dogs and cats. One of the biggest reasons so many vets use red light is because it is a quick, simple, and safe with few, if any, major side effects. This is backed by peer-reviewed clinical research, too.

A: Yes! Vets have been using the red light devices to care animals for years, but now pet owners can use it to care their animals in the comfort of home. We use LEDs that deliver safe red and NIR wavelengths of light inside a pet’s crate. This is more affordable than going to the vet regularly, and it is much less stressful for your pets.

A: Yes, red light is one of the fastest growing technology among veterinarians in the U.S. It is frequently used in animal rehabilitation settings for pain reduction, inflammation reduction, and wound care and healing. Veterinarians also widely use it for chronic pain and mobility issues associated with arthritis care. Red light is also used for animal pain relief and injury and wound healing, especially after surgeries.

A: For the glove light to work most effectively, it is best to use device directly over bare skin. However, you may use the device to light the hairs, just the effect will be affected.
