lifepro 987456 BioHeal Plus Red Light Therapy Panel User Manual

HELLO THERE.

Joel and I are athletes who suffered from severe ACL injuries a few

months apart. We purchased multiple pieces of wellness equipment for our in- home rehab but were

left disappointed and frustrated by wellness and recovery devices that made big promises but gave no support, no well-thought-out plan to follow, and no results. And that’s how Lifepro came about, and why the Wellness Recovery collection was created — we’ve

set out to change all of that. It’s why every piece of equipment bearing

our name not only undergoes rigorous scrutiny to make sure it delivers on power and efficacy, but also comes with built-in support from our ‘guiding angels’ and a built-in lifetime warranty so that

you’re never left hanging.

Welcome to Lifepro.

We’re in this together now

Red light therapy has a wide variety of applications and health benefits. Physical therapists and doctors use red light therapy to help athletes safely recover from injury, decrease pain, and improve performance. Experts believe it helps cells make additional energy to repair themselves and has anti-aging and fat loss benefits.
With the Lifepro BioHeal Plus Red Light Therapy Panel, you can experience myriad therapeutic benefits from the comfort of your own home. No need for expensive trips to the spa or doctor’s office. The therapy panel has 120 LEDs and has multiple hanging options so that you may effectively target and treat any area of the body. It’s perfect for performance recovery, gaining muscle, or even fat loss. Just a few 15–20 minute sessions a week can help you achieve improved wellness. The BioHeal Plus is also perfect for anyone who wants to improve sleep quality, reduce stiffness or pain in joints, improve skin health, lose weight, reduce hormonal imbalance, and improve mental clarity and focus.
The BioHeal Plus offers customizable treatment options for your wellness recovery, including pulsed light therapy and adjustable treatment time from 1–30 minutes. Three modes, (1) red + near-infrared, (2) red light, and (3) near-infrared light, allow you to choose the perfect settings for each treatment session.

  • Red light therapy mode: 660nm red light is absorbed by the skin at a high rate making it especially effective for improving blood circulation and stimulating collagen and elastin production, which reduces the appearance of fine lines and Red light therapy tightens pores, smooths skin tone, and reduces symptoms of eczema and psoriasis, such as redness, itching, flaking, and swelling.
  • Near infrared therapy mode: 850nm near-infrared (NIR) light penetrates deeply into tissue, organs, and joints to decrease inflammation, relieve pain, and repair
  • Red + near infrared therapy mode: This mode uses both 660nm and 850nm light. It provides the combined benefits of the first two

The BioHeal Plus is small and lightweight making it perfect to take with you on the go. Enjoy performance recovery and pain relief anytime, anywhere!

PULSED LIGHT THERAPY

By default, the BioHeal Plus uses continuous waves of light. When 10 Hz pulsed light therapy is turned on, the panel emits rapid pulses of red and/or near- infrared light (depending on the mode selected). 10 Hz is the pulse frequency and refers to the pause between one “on” time and the next (the light pulses on and off 10 times per second).
Emerging research shows that the short pause between light pulses encourages cells to regenerate more efficiently, meaning pulsed light has a greater effect on cell regeneration and recovery.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Q: WHAT IS RED LIGHT THERAPY

A: Red light therapy (RLT), also called phototherapy, is a therapy that uses low wavelength red light to treat at the surface and below the surface of the skin. Red light is absorbed by the body’s cells, particularly the mitochondria, which use the red light to make energy, which stimulates cell regeneration and repair.
Red light therapy is a highly-effective non-invasive, chemical-free therapy that can be used to safely and painlessly heal and rejuvenate many parts of the body.

Q: WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN RED LIGHT AND NEAR-INFRARED

LIGHT THERAPY?

A: Both red and near-infrared light are wavelengths on the electromagnetic spectrum. Red light wavelengths, 600–700 nm (nanometers), are absorbed by the skin at a high rate. Near-infrared (NIR) wavelengths, 760–1400 nm (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 BioHeal Plus’s red light therapy mode uses 660nm red light which is a wavelength that is easily absorbable by the skin, making it especially effective for improving blood circulation and the overall appearance of skin.
The BioHeal Plus’s near-infrared (NIR) therapy mode uses 850nm light, which is a wavelength that penetrates deeply into tissue, organs, and joints to decrease inflammation, relieve pain, and repair cells.
The BioHeal Plus’s red + near-infrared therapy mode uses 660nm and 850nm wavelengths of light at the same time. It treats the surface of the skin and below the skin simultaneously.

Q: WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF RED LIGHT AND NEAR-INFRARED (NIR)

LIGHT THERAPY

A: The benefits of red light therapy and near-infrared (NIR) therapy are very similar, though red light therapy treats cells at the surface of the skin and near- infrared therapy treats 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) therapy include:

  • Decrease pain, inflammation and stiffness in joints, muscles, and
  • Reduce symptoms of chronic pain disorders such as tendinitis, arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and
  • Promote faster recovery post-workout.
  • Improve sleep quality and improve mental clarity and
  • Boost immune
  • Improve skin appearance, including sun damage, scars (including acne scars), burns, cellulite, fine lines and
  • Stimulate collagen and elastin production and cell regeneration, thus improving blood circulation to the skin and the overall appearance of the skin, including reduced
  • Energize the lymphatic system, aiding in
  • Reduce symptoms of eczema and psoriasis, such as redness, itching, flaking, and
  • Reduce cortisol and increases serotonin, reducing stress and

Q: WHY DO SOME OF THE LEDS SEEM DIM?

A: The near-infrared (850nm) LEDs may appear dim or appear not to be working because near-infrared light wavelengths are not visible to the human eye.

Q: WHO SHOULD NOT USE THE DEVICE?

A: Please see the full list of contraindications on page 16 of this manual. We recommend everyone perform a skin sensitivity test before using this device.

Q: HOW OFTEN CAN I USE THE DEVICE?

A: See page 11 for treatment frequency and duration recommendations.

Q: SHOULD I WEAR CLOTHING OVER THE TREATMENT AREA?

A: For red light therapy to work most effectively, it is best to not wear clothing in the area you wish to treat.

Q: DO YOU HAVE OTHER LIGHT THERAPY PRODUCTS?

Check out a few our other light therapy products at the end of this manual. Visit our website, lifeprofitness.com , for additional products.

Q: HOW DO I CLEAN THE DEVICE?

A: Turn off and allow the device to completely cool. Wipe the outside of the device with a soft, dry cloth as needed. WARNING! Never allow water or other liquids to come into contact with the device. Do not immerse in water. Do not use abrasive, corrosive, solvent, or chemical cleaners or harsh detergents.

Q: HOW SHOULD I STORE THE DEVICE?

A: Store the device in a cool, dry, indoor location in the original box. Do not store other objects on top of the device to prevent damage to the LED lights. Do not store close to the ground, walls, or roof.
