Before Your First Red Light Therapy Appointment
Getting your body ready before your first red light therapy session is an important step toward achieving the best results:
- Dress Appropriately: Keeping in mind that any area being treated will require direct skin contact to the light pads. Therefore, wear clothing that will keep you comfortable and will allow for enough exposure of the target area.For body contouring, most individuals wear only undergarments. We provide disposable undergarments if desired.
- Get Plenty of Rest: A resting body is necessary for best results. Do not exercise or eat heavy meals at least one hour prior to treatment.
- HYDRATE!: Drinking plenty of water is essential to the success of the treatment. Proper hydration removes newly melted fat cells and toxins out of the body.

Frequently Asked Questions
What can I expect from my red light therapy treatment and how should I prepare?
For your first appointment, you will meet with a red light therapy expert who will consult with you one-on-one to discuss your individual goals and customize your treatment to best suit those goals.
Following your consultation, we will perform a full body composition analysis, red light therapy treatment and vibration lymphatic drainage treatment. Expect your first appointment to last 60 to 90 minutes.
The 20-minute red light therapy treatment is performed while lying on your back on a massage table, the light pads will be applied directly to your skin, covering the target areas. Participants commonly describe their treatments as feeling very comfortable and relaxing.
Following treatment, participants often feel a sense of calm and rejuvenation. Red light therapy provides a soothing warmth during the treatment. It is not generally considered hot and should never be uncomfortable.
To achieve best results from your red light therapy treatment, prepare by hydrating before and afterwards and avoid heavy exercise and large meals at least one hour before each appointment.
Keep in mind that we require direct skin contact for the treatment areas. Depending on the areas of treatment, you may choose to enjoy your treatment in loose clothing, undergarments or nude.
Most importantly, we want you to be comfortable while getting the most out of your red light therapy treatment.
What type of red light therapy equipment do you use?
Our high powered, medical grade device uses a pad light system to target the treatment areas. This system consists of several flexible LED light pads that wrap your body, and a semi-cylindrical mask that encircles, but does not touch your face.
We do not provide treatments with a light bed (tanning bed style) or light panels since these devices tend to be incapable of performing fat loss.
