Beginner’s Guide to Red Light Therapy
Red light therapy is a simple, science-backed way to support healing, energy, mood, and overall cellular health. Using gentle red and near-infrared (NIR) wavelengths, your Makiuri device helps power your mitochondria — the energy centers of your cells — to promote repair, balance, and daily vitality.
How It Works
Your device emits two types of therapeutic light:
- Red Light (630nm & 660nm): Boosts collagen, supports skin health, improves mood, and assists with surface-level healing.
- Near-Infrared Light (810nm, 830nm, 850nm): Penetrates deeper to reduce inflammation, relieve pain, enhance recovery, and support internal wellness.
Together, these wavelengths help your body create more ATP — meaning better energy, faster repair, and improved overall function.
Benefits
- Brighter, healthier skin
- Reduced pain & inflammation
- Improved mood, energy & mental clarity
- Faster muscle and tissue recovery
- Better sleep & circadian rhythm support
- Enhanced cellular health and detoxification
How to Use Your Device
- Distance: 6–12 inches for skin; 3–6 inches for targeted relief.
- Timing: Morning helps regulate sleep; evenings can promote relaxation.
- Duration: Start with 2–5 minutes and build up to 10–15 minutes.
- Consistency: 5–7 days per week for best results.
- Safety: Wear eye protection when your eyes are open; keep NIR off if experimenting with brief closed-eye exposure.
Make It a Ritual
Choose a calm spot where you can relax, unwind, and let the light do its work. Pair your session with hydration, meditation, soft music, or breathwork for an even deeper reset.
