Qi Resonance™ Red Light Therapy Mat FAQsUpdated 17 hours ago

Purpose and Function of Each Mode:

660nm (Red Light) Effects

• Penetrates Superficial Tissues: Red light penetrates about 1-5mm depth into the skin, making it ideal for surface-level treatments.

Key Physiological Actions:

1. Stimulates ATP Production: Red light is absorbed by cytochrome c oxidase in mitochondria, enhancing cellular energy (ATP).
2. Promotes Wound Healing & Tissue Repair: Helps accelerate collagen synthesis and skin regeneration, beneficial for healing ulcers, burns, and skin injuries.
3. Reduces Inflammation: Modulates pro-inflammatory cytokines like TNF-α and IL-6, which can be helpful for conditions like acne or dermatitis.
4. Improves Skin Aesthetics: Boosts collagen and elastin production, improving skin elasticity, reducing wrinkles, and treating rosacea.
5. Alleviates Superficial Pain: Helps target nerve endings in the skin to reduce localized pain.
6. Stimulates Hair Growth: Effective in treating androgenetic alopecia (male and female pattern baldness).

850nm (Near-Infrared Light) Effects

• Deep Tissue Penetration: Infrared light penetrates deeper (3-5cm+) into the tissues, making it effective for deeper healing.

Key Physiological Actions:

1. Repairs Deep Tissues: Effective for muscle, tendon, joint, and bone recovery, especially useful for strains, arthritis, and other musculoskeletal issues.
2. Potent Anti-Inflammation: Reduces inflammation in deep tissues, helping with conditions like joint pain and muscle stiffness.
3. Relieves Musculoskeletal Pain: Useful for chronic pain conditions, like back/neck pain and joint disorders.
4. Improves Blood Flow: Stimulates nitric oxide (NO) release, which induces vasodilation, improving nutrient delivery and circulation.
5. Accelerates Post-Exercise Recovery: Helps clear lactate from muscles, reducing muscle fatigue after intense exercise.
6. Supports Nerve Repair: Aids in the regeneration of peripheral nerves, promoting healing in cases of nerve damage.

Additional Clarifications:

1. Number of Lights for 660nm and 850nm:
   • 660nm Mode: When using the 660nm setting, only the lights designed for that wavelength will be on.
   • 850nm Mode: Similarly, when set to the 850nm mode, only the infrared LEDs will light up.
2. Heat Generation:
   • Minimal Heat: The LEDs do not generate much heat. The temperature remains within a safe range for skin and tissue exposure.
3. LEDs and Crystals:
   • Yes, the device incorporates LEDs and also uses crystals to enhance the therapeutic effects.
4. EMF and Magnetic Features:
   • The device emits EMFs within safe ranges. It does not contain magnets, coils, or PEMF features.
