Red Light vs. Near Infrared Light

Red Light uses bright visible red wavelengths (610-660nm) that benefit the skin and systems within the skin tissue, such as circulation, healing scars/burns, and collagen production.
Near Infrared Light has longer, invisible wavelengths (810-850nm) that penetrate below the skin, to cells deep in your body, including muscles, joints, and bones.

Red Light Benefits

Red Light mainly benefits the skin, but the bright light also supports the circadian rhythm and can benefit mood and energy as well.

accelerating wound healing
reducing the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and scars
promoting collagen and elastin production in the skin
reducing inflammation and increasing circulation
promoting healing of active acne
stimulating hair follicles for growth

NIR Light Benefits

Because NIR penetrates deeper into the body, it can benefit our muscles, bones, and tissues on a cellular level to soothe pain and promote healing and regeneration.

muscle healing and recovery
joint, tendon, and bone repair
reducing chronic pain & inflammation
dental healing/pain reduction
counteracts the harmful effects of excessive blue light exposure
eye health and damage protection
stimulates mitochondria to create more energy

Device Dimensions:

13" x 8.5" x 2.5"

Irradiance:

10 cm - 152.99 mw/cm2
15 cm - 108.07 mw/cm2
20 cm - 91.71 mw/cm2
25 cm - 88.92 mw/cm2
30 cm - 88.27 mw/cm2
50 cm - 74.34 mw/cm2
60 cm - 67.14 mw/cm2
100 cm - 40.98 mw/cm2
150 cm - 30.51 mw/cm2

For maximum benefits, we recommend using both the Red and NIR light settings at once, however, you can use one at a time if preferred.

Recommended treatment time: 15-20 minutes per treatment area at a time. Repeat multiple times per day as needed.

You can apply the light directly onto the skin for the most penetration, or as close as you can get it to the treatment area.

It is recommended to keep your eyes shut if applying red light to your eyes/face, otherwise, you can keep them open during treatment. If you are very sensitive to bright light eye protection may be beneficial.

You can use the device at any time throughout the day, however, it is important to consider the circadian rhythm and work with it, not against it.

Using the Red & NIR lights first thing in the morning can help wake up the body, reset the circadian rhythm, and provide energy.
At night/before bed, it is best to only use NIR to avoid the bright Red light from keeping you up by reducing melatonin.
During the fall & winter months, when there is less sunlight available, it’s even more beneficial and supportive to health to get Red & NIR light exposure daily

Relax

Main Benefits

Red and near-infrared light for energy, recovery, and repair.

More cellular energy

Stimulates cytochrome c oxidase to boost ATP production directly in the mitochondrial respiratory chain.

Better sleep & mood

Resets circadian rhythm, supports melatonin production, and counters the hormonal disruption of chronic blue light exposure.

Faster recovery

Near-infrared penetrates deep into muscle, joint, and bone to reduce inflammation and accelerate cellular repair.

Better skin & collagen

660nm red light stimulates collagen production, improves circulation, and supports skin repair at the surface level.

The Problem

We are chronically starved of the light our biology was built for.

Most of us spend our days indoors under blue light, with almost no exposure to the red and near-infrared wavelengths our cells depend on. This chronic light deficiency impairs mitochondrial function, disrupts hormones, suppresses melatonin, and accelerates cellular aging.

Relax addresses this directly — delivering 660nm red and 850nm near-infrared light to stimulate ATP production, restore circadian signalling, and shift cells from a stressed state to a regenerative one.

✓Stimulates cytochrome c oxidase & ATP synthesis

✓Restores circadian rhythm & melatonin

✓Reduces oxidative stress & inflammation

✓Supports deep tissue repair & recovery

The Science

Why your mitochondria need Relax.

01 · The Backstory

We are chronically starved of the light our biology was built for.

Most of us spend the majority of our days indoors, bathed in blue light from screens, with almost no exposure to the red and near-infrared wavelengths our cells actually run on. This isn't a minor inconvenience — it's a chronic physiological stressor.

Blue light dominance disrupts hormone production, eye health, mood, and mitochondrial energy output — which cascades into digestive, detoxification, and nervous system dysfunction. Red and near-infrared light therapy directly addresses this deficit by delivering the wavelengths that stimulate cellular repair and energy production.

02 · Red vs. Near-Infrared

Two wavelengths. Two depths. One device.

Red and near-infrared light both have profound biological effects — but they act at different depths, making them complementary rather than interchangeable.

660nm Red Light — Visible red wavelengths that work in the skin and surface tissue — circulation, collagen production, wound healing, and circadian signalling.
850nm Near-Infrared — Invisible wavelengths that penetrate deep into muscle, joint, and bone — stimulating cellular repair and pain relief at a structural level.

03 · Mitochondria & Energy

Red light is a direct input into your cellular energy system.

The primary mechanism behind red and NIR light therapy is stimulation of cytochrome c oxidase — the terminal enzyme of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. When activated by red and near-infrared photons, it accelerates ATP production, reduces oxidative stress, and triggers cellular repair signals throughout the body.

This is the same pathway disrupted by excess blue light and indoor living — and the same one that red light therapy restores. Energy production improves, inflammation decreases, and the cell shifts from a stressed state to a regenerative one.

04 · Circadian Rhythm & Mood

Light is the primary signal for your body clock — and your mood.

Bright red light in the morning helps reset the circadian rhythm, signals wakefulness, and supports hormone production throughout the day. Used at night, only NIR is recommended — the red wavelengths are bright enough to suppress melatonin and delay sleep onset.

In the darker months of fall and winter, consistent red and NIR exposure becomes especially valuable — compensating for the loss of natural sunlight and the mood, energy, and hormonal regulation it provides.

› What's the difference between red light (660nm) and near-infrared (850nm)?

Red light at 660nm is visible and primarily benefits the skin — circulation, collagen, wound healing, and circadian regulation. Near-infrared at 850nm is invisible and penetrates deeper into muscle, joint, and bone tissue for cellular repair and pain relief.

› Why does flicker rate matter?

Many cheap red light devices use low-quality components that cause imperceptible flickering. Even though you can't see it, this constant flicker stresses the nervous system and reduces the therapeutic benefit. Relax uses premium LED drivers that are completely flicker-free.

› What does ultra-low EMF mean and why does it matter?

Most red light panels have the power supply built directly into the device — which emits electromagnetic fields that reach the body when used up close. Relax has an externalized power supply on the cord, allowing close skin contact without EMF exposure.

› When is the best time to use it?

Red + NIR in the morning helps wake the body, reset the circadian rhythm, and boost energy. At night, use NIR only — the bright red light suppresses melatonin and can interfere with sleep. It's especially valuable in fall and winter when natural sunlight is limited.
