Red light therapy, without the guesswork.
A 10-page practical PDF plus a 3-poster set covering coverage, wavelengths, dose response, session length, and the six specs to verify on any panel before spending. Built by the team behind the Health Canada Class II licensed RLPro series.

What the guide covers
Every claim is anchored to peer-reviewed research linked from thehale.ca/science. When the evidence is preliminary, we say so.
Coverage
How to match panel size to the treatment area, not just LED count. The three coverage tiers (targeted, sectional, full-body) and how distance changes everything.
Wavelengths
Which colors of light reach which tissues. The four working bands (660, 810, 850, 1060 nm) and why multi-wavelength panels matter.
Dose response
The biphasic Arndt-Schulz curve in plain language. Why 3–10 J/cm² is the working range and what happens above 50 J/cm².
Session length
Realistic timings for daily home use vs. clinical protocols. The most common dosing mistake people make and how to avoid it.
Buying checklist
Six specs to verify on any panel — multi-wavelength array, irradiance at distance, regulatory clearance, EMF, warranty, and independent review.
Citations and methodology
Karu 2008, Huang and Hamblin 2009, de Freitas and Hamblin 2016, Wunsch and Matuschka 2014, Avci et al. 2013, and more.
Three posters you can print and share.
Each poster ships in two sizes: web (for sharing) and 1700x3022 print (for a clean 11x17 or A3 print). Hang them in a clinic, studio, or home gym.
Wavelength meets depth
Which colors of red and near-infrared light reach which tissues. Print at 11x17 for clinic walls.
The sweet spot
The biphasic dose-response curve in one frame. Why more light is not always better.
Before you buy
Six specs to verify before you spend. Tape this above your desk.
