A tanning-bed-style enclosure lined with red and near-infrared LEDs delivering whole-body photobiomodulation while lying down.

A tanning-bed-style enclosure lined with red and near-infrared LEDs delivering whole-body photobiomodulation while lying down. Marketed for skin, muscle recovery, and overall wellness in a spa/studio format.

Evidence

emerging

Same photobiomodulation mechanism as panels with supportive small trials for recovery and skin, but the whole-body wellness/anti-aging claim lacks large controlled trials and standardized dosing.

Regulatory notes

European Union
CE-marked per claimed indication under EU MDR; whole-body 'longevity' framing is not an approved medical claim.
United States
Systems like NovoTHOR carry FDA clearance for specific pain/circulation indications; general wellness bed use markets beyond cleared claims.
United Arab Emirates
Requires DHA/DoH device registration and clinic licensing; claims restricted to cleared indications.
United Kingdom
MHRA/UKCA medical-device rules apply when clinical claims are made; wellness positioning must avoid implying unproven medical outcomes.
