Eye protection should be used when NIR mode is active. Do not stare directly into the LEDs. The beam window covers the full front surface area of the device. If your eyes are more sensitive to light or if you take medications that have a history of causing photosensitivity, we recommend that you consult your physician before treating with an Apollo device.

Daily use:

To get the most out of your Apollo, consistency is vital. We recommend minimum once daily, however 2-3 times per day can be beneficial when using for multiple goals such as sleep, training, and mental acuity!

Any Time of Day:

Use your Apollo when it works best for you! It's easiest to position the treatment times around your goals. For example, if you're using your Apollo for mental acuity and sleep it'd be best to have your first session before you start the work day to stimulate your brain. Following the day, a wind down session would be perfect as you finish work and the sun has set. 

For effective Apollo use, the area of your body that you’re treating needs to be exposed directly to the light. Clothing prevents the red and near infrared light from reaching your cells, so be sure to remove any garments from the part of your body you’re treating.

Many Apollo users with full-body devices prefer to Apollo in the nude. Delivering light to more surface area on your body leads to better light therapy outcomes, but full nudity is not necessarily required for effective, full-body Apollo use.

Lighter garments like underwear, bras, shorts, and socks may be worn without hampering a treatment, though the covered areas not exposed directly to the light won’t receive any benefits.

All Apollo device's use red 660 nm and near-infrared (NIR) 850 nm. Unlike red light, near-infrared light is nearly invisible to the naked eye.

When running both wavelengths at the same time, the near-infrared LEDs may appear off. This is due to the contrast of the red and near-infrared, as the red appears much more luminous to our eyes.

Rest assured the LEDs are active and delivering a powerful dose of 850 nm.

This depends on numerous factors such as the severity of your condition, how long you've been dealing with it, and what device you're using.

For most moderate conditions you can expect to see real, noticeable results within 2-4 weeks with consistent treatments.

For conditions that affect large areas of your body or multiple areas, we highly recommend using our larger units such as the Apollo 1 or Apollo 6 that dramatically increase the coverage area along with energy output to your body.
