Your visit
You lie back in warm red light, body and face together, with nothing to do but rest.
It starts with a short conversation, as your therapist asks about your health and listens to what you hope for. Then protective eyewear goes on.
The equipment gives off some warmth, but the light itself should never feel hot or painful.
Aftercare
One session may leave you feeling relaxed.
Research suggests some red-light devices improve aspects of how skin looks and how you recover after exercise. It will not heal an injury, though, or treat a skin or hormonal condition.
Any visible change in your skin takes a regular series of sessions, and nobody can promise one. Results vary from person to person, which is why the consultation matters.
Now and then, brief warmth, redness, dryness, itching or sensitivity can follow.

Red light, head to toe
You lie on the Cocoon Red Light Infrared Mat, with one light panel over your body and a second over your face. There is a nano mist too, a mist of tiny droplets.
The therapy’s proper name is photobiomodulation, which means using light to influence how cells behave.
Light-sensitive structures in your cells absorb this low-intensity light. Researchers believe it influences the mitochondria, the small parts of each cell that make its energy, and how cells signal.
How you respond depends on the device, its wavelengths and strength, the length of your session and how much of you is lit.
Questions people ask
Red light works nearer the surface of your skin, while near-infrared travels further into tissue. Your session uses both.
