How to Use Red Light Therapy at Home (And Actually See Results)

Red light therapy isn’t just for elite athletes or luxury clinics anymore. Thanks to cutting-edge at-home devices like the ones we offer here at Magma, you can now enjoy the full benefits of this powerful technology in the comfort of your own home.

But here’s the thing: using red light therapy the right way can make all the difference between “meh” results and real transformation.

Let’s walk you through everything you need to know to get started.


1. Pick the Right Device for Your Goals

The first step is choosing the setup that suits your lifestyle and wellness needs:

  • Full size panels: Ideal for whole-body use, faster muscle recovery, or general wellness support.

  • Targeted lamps: Great for specific areas like the face, joints, or lower back.

  • Portable accessories: Perfect for quick sessions on the go or while travelling.

At Magma, every product is built with precision, delivering clinically effective wavelengths of red and near-infrared light for optimal results.


2. How Often Should You Use It?

Consistency is key.

For most users, we recommend starting with 10–20 minutes per session, 3–5 times a week. Some people feel benefits within days while for others, it takes a few weeks of regular use to see real change.

Tip: Make it part of your routine. Use it while meditating, watching TV, or winding down before bed.


3. How Close Should You Be to the Light?

You’ll want to position yourself around 6–12 inches away from the panel or lamp. Any closer, and it may get too warm, any further, and the light won’t penetrate as effectively.

Remember: skin should be clean, dry, and free from heavy creams or makeup to maximise light absorption.


4. What Does It Feel Like?

Red light therapy is completely non-invasive and pain-free. You might feel a gentle warmth, but there’s no burning, stinging, or discomfort. Most users say it feels relaxing, like a gentle sunbath without the UV damage.


5. Track Your Progress

Whether you're using red light therapy for skin, sleep, pain relief, or recovery, keep a simple journal or notes on your phone to track:

  • Energy levels

  • Sleep quality

  • Skin changes

  • Pain or soreness levels

Noticing subtle improvements over time helps keep you motivated and ensures you're using it effectively.


Final Thoughts: Wellness That Works Around You

The beauty of red light therapy is how effortlessly it fits into daily life, no clinics, no downtime, no noise. Just quiet, consistent healing that builds session by session.
