GETTING STARTED
INDICATIONS FOR USE
Mito Red Lights are general wellness devices and are not intended to cure or
diagnose any medical conditions. Use of this device is designed to help
promote overall health and wellness by supporting cellular function. Mito Red
Lights should only be operated based on the user guidelines, as outlined in
this user manual.
FIRST TIME USERS
For first time users, we recommend starting out with 2-3 minute treatments per
area, and slowly working up to a 10-minute session over the course of 2-3
weeks as your body acclimates to the therapy.
STANDARD USE
We recommend 10-minute treatments at 6-12 inches from your device. Additional
10-minute sessions for specific areas may be beneficial but beyond a certain
point, the scientific evidence points to diminishing returns.
More is not always better. For this reason, we recommend you allow at least 6
hours between treatments of the same area. We recommend no more than 15
minutes in any one session. We recommend using the device 4-10 times per week.
PROTECTIVE EYEWEAR
When treating, do not stare directly into the light emitting diodes (LEDs).
We recommend wearing protective goggles (included) when using the NIR directly
into the face.
FAQS
IS RED LIGHT THERAPY SAFE? ARE THERE SIDE EFFECTS?
Mito Red Light uses only the red and near infrared wavelengths that are clinically proven to be effective and safe. However, we always recommend consulting with your healthcare provider for specific questions about any concerns or health conditions.
WILL LIGHT THERAPY TREATMENTS CAUSE DETOX SYMPTOMS?
It is possible that a Mito Red Light treatment can cause some detoxrelated symptoms while your body acclimates. If you experience these types of issues, we recommended stopping treatments until the symptoms go away. Then start out at 2-3 minutes per treatment area and work your way slowly up to 10 minutes over the course of 2-3 weeks. This will help your body adapt. If you continue to experience detox-related symptoms and have any concerns regarding the use of red light therapy, we recommend stopping treatments and consulting with your healthcare provider. We have a full 60-day no hassle trial and full refund policy.
WHAT IF MY SKIN IS BURNED OR DAMAGED?
Red light therapy has been clinicallyproven to help damaged skin heal from cuts, burns, and other blemishes. We recommend consulting with your healthcare provider if you have any concerns.
WHAT IF I HAVE A PRE-EXISTING HEALTH CONDITION OR TAKE MEDICATIONS?
Mito Red Lights are classified as a general wellness devices. Out of an abundance of caution, we recommend you consult with your healthcare provider if you have any pre-existing conditions or if you take photosensitizing drugs. Steroids work to suppress the immune system while red light therapy may work to stimulate it. To the extent that the two therapies may work against each other, we do not recommend they be used together. As we are not licensed healthcare practitioners, we are not able to offer definitive clinical guidance. We recommend consulting with your trusted health care provider with specific questions.
CAN CHILDREN USE MITO RED LIGHT®?
Clinical studies have shown red and NIR light therapy to be quite safe. However, if you are considering using it with children, we recommend consulting with a healthcare professional. First, all treatments with children should be done under adult supervision.
CAN PREGNANT OR NURSING WOMEN USE THE LIGHTS?
As there has been no clinical research with red light therapy treatments on pregnant or nursing subjects, do not use the device if pregnant or lactating before consulting with your healthcare provider.
OTHER CONSIDERATIONS: BOTOX, BREAST IMPLANTS, AND LASIK
Users with a history of facial fillers and/ or Botox injections should consult their dermatologist prior to use. Users with breast implants should consult their plastic surgeon prior to use. Do not use the device during the healing period post Lasik eye surgery. Before resuming treatment, we recommend getting clearance from your doctor. As always, we recommend following our treatment guidelines and making sure to use the provided goggles when using the NIR wavelength.
ARE THE NIR LEDS NOT WORKING?
NIR is just beyond the visible spectrum and is invisible to the naked eye. You will only actually be able to see a pink dot, or a subtle pink glow emanating from the LEDs when they are on. Please rest assured that there is a significant amount of light energy emanating from those LEDs and your Mito Red Light is in fact working exactly as designed.
INSTRUCTIONS: Mito Mobile Flex

- Charge the device
- Press the Power Button to turn on the device. Default will be 6 red LEDs and 6 NIR LEDs (NIR LEDs will appear unlit).
- Press the R/NIR button one time to turn on all 12 NIR LEDs (NIR is invisible so LEDs will appear unlit but you may be able to see a pink dot or slight pink glow).

LIGHT THERAPY OVERVIEW
WHAT IS RED AND NEAR INFRARED LIGHT THERAPY?
Red and near infrared light therapy, also known as photobiomodulation (PBM)
involves the use of specific wavelengths of natural light in the mid 600 and
mid 800 nanometer range to enhance the health and function of our cells. Red
and infrared light therapy is without any harmful UV rays or excess heat so it
is very safe.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The most well studied mechanism of action surrounding red and near infrared
light therapy is increased mitochondrial energy production in the cells.
Mitochondria are tiny organelles that are the energy power plants of all the
cells in our body. Red and near infrared light therapy helps the mitochondria
create more of that energy.
The specific photons found in red and near infrared light interact with a
photoreceptors within our cells called cytochrome c oxidase. This interaction
stimulates the mitochondria in our cells to use oxygen more efficiently, which
allows the mitochondria to produce more ATP (adenosine triphosphate).
Adenosine triphosphate is a complex organic chemical that provides energy to
drive many processes in living cells, e.g. muscle contraction, nerve impulse
propagation, and chemical synthesis.
Found in all forms of life, ATP is often referred to as the “molecular unit of
currency” of intracellular energy transfer. When our cells have more energy,
they simply perform better and the body follows suit.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?
There are over 3,000 scientific studies and peer reviewed clinical trials that
have been conducted on the benefits and effectiveness of red and near infrared
light therapy.
The studies have shown that light therapy can have significant health
benefits, including but not limited to: increased energy, enhanced fat loss,
enhanced muscle recovery, decreased inflammation and joint pain, improved
health and appearance of our skin, increased collagen production, improved
mood and cognitive function, faster wound healing, improved hormonal health,
improved quality of our sleep, and much more. The benefits are so wide ranging
due to the mechanism of action: increased cellular energy production.
